Out Of Heartbreak Nelly Korda Reveals The Identity Of Her Ex-Boyfriend Who Left Her for Being “Too Thin” ,Internet Slams Him—Here’s His Name
In a moment of raw honesty, tennis star Nelly Korda opened up about a painful chapter from her personal life — one that has shocked fans and sparked a wave of support online. The world No. 1 golfer (and highly celebrated athlete) revealed in a recent interview that her ex-boyfriend ended their relationship because he thought she was “too thin” and claimed she had “no flesh” on her.
A Breakup Rooted in Body-Shaming
Korda, known for her strength, focus, and athletic build, admitted that the comment left a lasting emotional scar. “He told me he couldn’t be with someone who looked like me,” she said. “It was the way he said it — like my body wasn’t enough, or wasn’t womanly enough.”
Her revelation came during an intimate Q&A on a podcast, where she candidly addressed the emotional toll the breakup took on her. Although she did not initially intend to name him, Korda decided to share his identity after reflecting on the toxic nature of the relationship and how damaging such comments can be — not just to her, but to anyone struggling with body image.
Fans and Supporters Rally Behind Her
Once the clip began circulating online, fans were quick to show support. Social media platforms flooded with messages of love, encouragement, and outrage over the ex-boyfriend’s behavior.
“This is disgusting. Nelly is one of the strongest athletes out there. To reduce her to her weight is pure ignorance,” one user wrote on X (formerly Twitter).
“This just proves that no matter how successful, smart, and beautiful you are, some people will still try to break you down,” another added.
The Bigger Conversation: Body Image in Sports
Korda’s story has sparked a broader conversation about body image standards, particularly in professional sports where athletes — especially women — are often subjected to scrutiny over their appearance. Many athletes, including gymnasts, runners, and tennis players, have spoken out about the pressure to look a certain way, even when it undermines their athletic identity.
Taking Back Her Power
Nelly Korda’s decision to speak publicly is being praised as empowering and brave. By reclaiming her narrative and standing up against body-shaming, she’s become an inspiration not just for fans of golf or tennis, but for anyone who’s ever felt judged for their body.
“I’m not ashamed anymore,” Korda said. “I’m proud of what my body can do. If that wasn’t enough for him, that’s on him — not me.”
As of now, her ex has not publicly responded — but the internet has made its stance loud and clear: Nelly deserves far better.
