Dubai Love Shack

[Pop Bitch] We’ve heard about international tennis stars shacking up with sheikhs in Dubai before – but it’s never usually for free, and it’s certainly never a male player. So what we’re hearing about one well-known family man can’t really be true. Can it?

    I think this has to be Djokovic with the rumors of major trouble in his private life, his turbulent period in tennis currently – and in his obviously erratic and disturbed emotions. I think he spends quite a bit of time in Dubai as well.

    • Bushwalker says

      This! He spent some time in Dubai and Qatar just recently preparing for Australian Open. I thought he got new sponsors, but it looks like it got juicier than that. Roger doesn’t need to portray himself as an overly family man, but Djokovic does, because he’s coming from a very conservative (and homophobic) country.

    (Part 1)

    The only tournament played recently in UAE was the World Tennis Championship, in late December. The only tournament in Dubai is in March, so this is WTC related.

    Six players were there:

    Andy Murray: married with one daughter
    Milos Raonic: has a girlfriend, no kids
    Rafael Nadal: long-time “girlfriend”, long rumored to be gay, no kids
    Tomas Berdych: married, no kids
    David Goffin: girlfriend, no kids
    Jo-Wilfried Tsonga: girlfriend, about to become a father this…

    The Dubai World Championshop of Tennis is a misnomer . Only 6 men played in this 2016 end of year unofficial tournament. Of the “Big Four”, Djokovic, Nadal and Federer did not play. Hmmmmmm……I suppose one of them might have been there as a spectator watching Andy play?

    Roger Federer

    he is doing this for the lovin’
    Gavin Rossdale was rumored to be his side piece for years

    So glad Gwen is far away from him and healing from his lying, cheating self, she glows now

    Federer? He is known as ‘the family man’ of tennis, but so are Murray and Djokovic now. Video emerged of Federer singing in a hotel room with Dimitrov, who is also allegedly into men, which means diddly squat as evidence but i wonder if that spiked interest in this story as well.

    IF it is Federer, surely it cannot be for money.

    Male Tennis Star: Roger Federer

    When one says international male tennis stars, I think Federer, Nadal, Murray, and Djokovic.

    Nadal – not married, no kids
    Murray got married in 2015 and had a daughter born last year
    Djokovic got married in 2014 and had a son the same year
    Federer got married in 2009 and has two sets of twins, born in 2009 and 2014.

    I think for you to be a well known family man you need to have been married with kids for a while so he’s my choice. I don’t believe…

    Roger Federer for sure. He’s best friends with Gavin Rossdale so that gives you a clue. We go to the tennis championship in the desert every year and have watched him closely on and off the court. He’s definitely in the closet.

    Roger Federer ?

    It might be for love because isn’t he loaded from years or ranking #1? I guess loaded for him these days implies something totally different. He’s still fit and good looking so why not?

    Male Tennis Star: Roger Federer (I don’t really know any tennis players so I just guessed him)

    Optional: Money probably

    • KatarinaJ says

      He is the ultimate family man with 4 kids – two sets of identical twins. I say Federer too but I don’t think his wife is his beard. Either he is bi or heavily in the closet because he has to have fathered the kids the old fashioned way and not by IVF. Twins run in his family and you don’t get identical from multiple IVF babies. He definitely sleeps with is wife.

    • am2016 says

      @KatarinaJ Quite the opposite actually, the chance you can have two sets of twins in a normal way are quite slim. They are definitely a result of the IVF .

    • Snoopydooper says

      Actually Katarina is right. Both sets of their twins are identical, not fraternal. With IVF, it is common to produce fraternal twins but not identical ones.
      Really don’t see Federer as the subject of this blind, even though he fits the family man description. That said, I don’t have any other guess.

    • Poppy27 says

      @am2016 totally agree on the twins, gender selection IVF for certain.

      Roger Federer for sure he has a second home there.
