The four-time Grand Slam champion posted: “I can’t wait to get back on the court, but here’s a little update on life for 2023.” Along with this caption she shared an image of hers of his own ultrasound on an ultrasound monitor, and a screenshot of a Notes app note that read: “The past few years have been nothing short of interesting, but I find life’s most challenging moments to be the most enjoyable. These few months away from the sport have truly given me a new love and appreciation for the game to which I have dedicated my life.”
Osaka continues: “I realized that life is so short and I don’t take any moment for granted, every day is a new blessing and adventure. I know I have so much to look forward to in the future, one thing I look forward to is for my son to watch one of my games and tell someone “that’s my mom”, haha. 2023 will be a year full of lessons for me and I hope to see you early next year because I will be at the Australian Open 2024», he concluded, «I love you all infinitely», with a red heart-shaped emoji. In a postscript, she added: “Side note: I don’t think there is a perfectly correct path to follow in life, but I have always thought that if you go forward with good intentions, you will eventually find your way.”
The tennis player is dating the rapper Cordae since three years. The couple had their first date at Staples Center to attend a Clippers game in 2019, and Osaka later told GQ: “I just remember seeing that there were so many people who wanted to take a picture with him.” Cordae also revealed, “We dated for almost a year before people knew about us. So we move very privately. We don’t post intimate moments, because I feel they are sacred. A relationship is truly a sacred thing. When outside influences are allowed in, it becomes less sacred.”
Osaka also said that her fiancé has been incredibly helpful in her mental health battles: “During the whole New York thing and with everything that was going on, I started to feel really depressed,” she said, referring to to the response to his masks for the 2020 US Open that honored victims of police brutality. “Sometimes I called Cordae, and perhaps in some calls I cried. I do not remember. And he flew away, even though he was very busy. I really appreciated it. I’m not sure I told him. I feel like he really helped me win.” The Japanese tennis player, who lit an Olympic brazier at Tokyo 2020 and was the world’s highest-paid athlete in 2021, was among the sportswomen who were the first to talk about mental health for elite athletes.
