Looking to the future: an ideal outcome now, really, as a tennis lover, would be for Riddle to fall for Alcaraz (who I believe is single) and to document all the antics that that entails. Imagine! Or perhaps for the ATP to give Riddle a full-time ambassadorial role? With social media, the role of the WAG has escalated far beyond what it was when the term was coined at the 2006 FIFA World Cup at Baden-Baden. Then it was surface-level fixation: the photographs of Victoria Beckham, Cheryl Cole and Coleen Rooney alluded to an unobtainable glamour as the partner of a player. Now, their whole lifestyles are available on social media – so you can go deep should you wish.
Now, let’s unpack the finance man: firstly, this could well be fictional. But could this gesture to a whole new brand of Riddle content? ‘I’m looking for a man in finance, 6ft5, blue eyes’, or so the meme goes. Let’s see. Certainly, for the fans, the break-up is a curveball – but one we’re willing to weather. It’s Morgan’s world, we’re just living in it. Let’s see what she does next.
