Aryna Sabalenka is used to winning trophies. Now she has another sparkling prize to celebrate.
The world renowned tennis star recently announced her engagement to entrepreneur Georgios Frangulis, and while the internet quickly celebrated the couple’s love story, it was the ring that truly served championship level glamour. The proposal, which took place on March 3, came as a surprise to Sabalenka despite months of playful hints she had dropped about wanting the next step in their relationship.
The moment unfolded beside a candlelit pool surrounded by pink roses and floating petals. It was romantic, intimate, and beautifully dramatic. When Frangulis went down on one knee, Sabalenka looked genuinely shocked before saying yes. As the camera captured the couple embracing, it eventually zoomed in on the star of the evening. A massive oval cut diamond engagement ring framed with emerald stones that immediately captured attention online.
For a tennis player known for powerful serves and unforgettable matches, the ring feels equally bold.
Sabalenka may have hinted at wanting a proposal, but she clearly did not expect it that night.
The Belarusian tennis champion shared the engagement news on Instagram with a video of the moment Frangulis proposed. The romantic setting featured candles glowing around a pool while white rose petals floated across the water. Pink roses completed the dreamy atmosphere.
Sabalenka captioned the post with a simple message declaring their forever together, along with the date and a diamond ring emoji.
Later, she humorously admitted on social media that she truly had no idea the proposal was coming. In a casual follow up video she appeared in a relaxed outfit consisting of a white T shirt, jeans, and flip flops, joking that she was completely unprepared for such a big moment.
The unexpected nature of the proposal made the reaction even more genuine. The tennis star’s shock quickly turned into excitement as she embraced her fiancé and showed off the stunning ring.
Sabalenka’s engagement ring could easily compete with any championship trophy.
According to reports, the ring features a breathtaking oval cut diamond that weighs more than 12 carats. The stone is set in platinum and framed by vibrant emeralds, creating a design that feels both luxurious and highly personal.
The piece was created by jewelry designer Isabela Grutman, who worked closely with Frangulis to bring the ring to life. Rather than simply purchasing a ring off the shelf, the entrepreneur collaborated with the designer for months to craft something truly unique.
One of the most special elements of the ring is the use of emerald stones. These were intentionally included because emeralds are reportedly Sabalenka’s favorite gemstone. Adding them to the design transformed the ring from a statement piece into something deeply personal.
The oval diamond offers timeless elegance, while the emerald accents give the ring color and individuality. Together they create a look that feels dramatic without losing sophistication.
In a year already filled with extravagant celebrity engagement rings, Sabalenka’s easily ranks among the most striking.
Sabalenka and Frangulis were first linked publicly in April 2024. Since then, their relationship has quietly grown while Sabalenka continued dominating on the tennis court.
Frangulis is an entrepreneur best known as the founder of Oakberry, a global brand known for its açaí bowls and healthy food concepts. While Sabalenka thrives in the competitive world of professional tennis, Frangulis operates in the fast paced world of international business.
Despite their busy careers, the pair have frequently supported each other’s milestones and appearances.
Over the past year, Sabalenka even joked publicly about wanting her boyfriend to propose. During a press conference at the US Open in 2025, she reacted to a fan proposal that happened during one of her matches by teasing that she glanced toward her own boyfriend with a little pressure.
Months later, she playfully added more pressure while speaking during the Brisbane International tournament in early 2026, joking that she hoped she would soon be able to call him something more official.
It seems the message landed.
Sabalenka’s career has been filled with intense competition and global attention, but moments like this reveal another side of the athlete. Off the court, she is entering a new chapter that is far more personal.
The engagement represents a fresh milestone during an already remarkable period in her life and career. Fans who have followed her journey are celebrating not just the ring, but the happiness behind it.
And while Sabalenka continues to chase trophies on the court, she now has another glittering symbol of success to enjoy.
A diamond ring that is impossible to ignore.
