Tennis ace Nick Kyrgios’ relationship with Anna Kalinskaya has come to a very acrimonious end, with the Russian confirming the pair ‘are not friends’.
The Russian tennis champion, 21, also posted on Instagram saying ‘you’re not a bad boy, you are simply a bad person’ which fans took as a dig at the Australian.
She has since deleted the message, but confirmed in response to a fan’s question on social media that the pair were no longer together.
‘We broke up. We aren’t friends,’ she said.
‘I understand you are his friends and it’s cool but I’m not going to talk about him.
‘Have some respect for me as well please.’

The pair were seen at a street stall in Acapulco, Mexico, in February, with Kyrogios planting a kiss on her forehead, and are understood to have dated since August.
The 25-year-old has remained in Canberra during the coronavirus crisis, while she has been in Miami.
Just last week, she posted a picture of herself playing tennis with another cryptic caption, writing: ‘No matter what you go through, don’t let anyone break you.
‘Be strong, don’t lose yourself, be you. You deserve the best.’
The romance was first rumoured in August last year, after Kyrgios was spotted cheering the Russian on at the 2019 Citi Open in Washington.

During the tournament, the Russian player executed an under arm serve, attributing the tactic to Kyrgios.
‘I think you know why I did it,’ Ms Kalinskaya said afterwards.
‘Because I was watching Nick Kyrgios!’
Ms Kalinskaya, 21, posted a picture of herself with Kyrgios at a Lakers game in Los Angeles on March 10, but has since deleted it.
The two tennis stars were clad in NBA jerseys as they watched the LA Lakers take on the Clippers.
The pair were seen in a passionate moment while sharing tacos at a food stall in Mexico after he retired from the Mexican Open in February.

The star had retired from the ATP World Tour first-round match in Acapulco due to an injured wrist.
Kyrgios was booed by the crowd after pulling out after just one set and 32 minutes.
He was also spotted commenting on one of her Instagram posts when she attended a red carpet event in Acapulco, saying she ‘only had 25 minutes to get ready as well’.
Kyrgios has previously dated Croatian-Australian tennis ace Ajla Tomljanović for about two years until 2017.
Last year, Tomljanović sparked rumours she was dating another tennis player – Italian Matteo Berrettini – after being spotted watching his US Open fourth-round match and being photographed with him at a restaurant in New York.
