Wedding bells are ringing for world No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka. The Grand Slam champion said yes to Brazilian entrepreneur Georgios Frangulis after a surprise proposal that unfolded beside a candlelit pool framed with pink roses. The moment, shared on Instagram, quickly drew global attention. Yet it was the ring that sparked a second wave of headlines. Sabalenka’s engagement announcement comes during a busy stretch in her career, as she competes at Indian Wells in California. Of course, Sabalenka’s focus is still on the court; her personal milestone has captured fans across the tennis world, drawing warm messages from fellow athletes and celebrities. And she deserves the little moment of joy and personal celebration.

The custom piece features a stunning oval cut diamond weighing over 12 carats, set in platinum with emerald accents. Emeralds hold special meaning for Sabalenka. They are her favorite stone, and the idea to include them came from Frangulis himself. Isabela Grutman, CEO and Founder of ISA Grutman Jewelry, worked closely with him on the design. “I've always admired their love and relationship, so I was incredibly flattered when Georgios asked me to design this piece,” Grutman said in a statement (via Daily Mail). “We spent months working on the design, selecting the stones, and perfecting every detail of the craftsmanship to make it truly special for Aryna,” she continued. “What made it even more meaningful was Georgios' idea to incorporate emeralds into the design, as it's her favorite stone - a personal touch that makes the ring uniquely hers.” Jewelry experts estimate the ring’s value could range between $500,000 and $800,000. Its elongated oval shape enhances its presence on the finger, a trend that has grown popular in recent years. Sabalenka later admitted she did not expect the proposal that night. “Well, I obviously had NO idea this was happening tonight,” she wrote alongside a close-up video of the sparkling diamond.

The couple’s announcement prompted congratulations from across the sports world, including Novak Djokovic, Coco Gauff, and other tennis stars. Their relationship, first linked publicly in April 2024, has steadily grown in the spotlight. Sabalenka had hinted at marriage before. During the Brisbane International, she smiled and said, “Thank you to my boyfriend. Hopefully soon I'll call you somehow else, right?” She then added with a laugh, “I just put on extra pressure, right?” Now engaged, Sabalenka begins a new chapter with Frangulis.
