Tennis star Katie Boulter surprised her fiancé Alex de Minaur with a FaceTime call after a young fan made an adorable request to serve as ring bearer at their wedding.

Fan’s Heartwarming Gesture After Ostrava Victory

During Boulter’s final match at the Ostrava Open, where she secured her fourth WTA title, a young fan held up a sign reading, ‘Katie, can I be your ring bearer at the wedding.’ Boulter immediately called de Minaur to share the moment, capturing his stunned reaction on video and posting it to social media.

De Minaur, beaming with a wide smile, responded, ‘How cool is that.’

Couple’s Tennis and Personal Milestones

The engaged pair, who announced their engagement in December 2024, have been together since March 2020 and went public in 2021. They remain one of tennis’s most beloved couples.

De Minaur enters the Rotterdam Open as the top seed this week, positioning him to potentially join Boulter as a recent title winner. He reached the Australian Open quarterfinals this year before falling to champion Carlos Alcaraz.

Wedding Buzz and Playful Banter

Speculation surrounds their wedding, rumored to be a destination event after Wimbledon in July. At the Australian Open, tennis legend Jim Courier teased de Minaur about planning duties.

‘How involved are you planning to be in this wedding planning or are you gonna leave it to Katie?’ Courier asked after de Minaur’s fourth-round win.

‘Are you doubting me, Jim?’ de Minaur shot back. He added, ‘This is like a 50/50 relationship right?’ Courier quipped, ‘You’ve not been married. You don’t know. You’re about to become a 49 percent shareholder of a really great company.’
