French tennis star Benoît Paire is as famous for his fiery temper as he is for his talent. Known for his intense relationships on and off the court, Paire has had two highly publicized love stories that have deeply impacted his personal journey. Still single, he continues his search for the perfect match with his characteristic humor.
Shy’m and Benoît Paire: a legendary love story In the fall of 2015, Benoît Paire and singer Shy’m made their relationship official. For two years, the couple enjoyed a relatively low-key romance, despite the media attention due to tournaments and travels. Their love story took a dramatic turn during the 2016 Rio Olympics when Paire was kicked out of the Olympic Village for spending the night at a hotel with Shy’m. This incident led to his suspension from the French Tennis Federation.
The breakup in 2017 took a toll on Paire, affecting his game directly. He struggled with the separation from Shy’m, admitting that he was still in love with her and that it impacted his performance on the court. Despite their past, the two stars are now friends and have managed to maintain a positive relationship post-breakup.
Julie Bertin, the modern encounter that ended in conflict with Benoît Paire Nearly four years after his split from Shy’m, Benoît Paire found love again with Julie Bertin, known for her reality show appearances. Their meeting was modern, starting through social media and developing into a two-year relationship. However, things took a turn for the worse, and in early 2022, the couple went through a messy breakup following accusations of infidelity from Bertin.
Publicly accusing Paire of dishonesty, Bertin shared private messages on social media, criticizing his actions. Paire, who has not found love since then, humorously acknowledged his single status in early 2025. Despite his lighthearted attitude, it’s clear that Paire is taking his time in finding the right partner, unwilling to rush into another relationship.
