Some people are just meant to be together no matter what comes their way. Just like two pieces of a puzzle. Today we’re going to get a sneak peek at Karolína Plíšková‘s personal life. The 31-year-old former world number 1 from the Czech Republic is quite a popular figure in women’s tennis. Plíšková has won 16 titles and also featured in the finals of the Grand Slam events twice in her singles career. Her life off the court has been as glittering as her on court’s.

Karolína Plíšková was born in Louny, a small town on the banks of the Ohře River in the Czech Republic. Currently, she lives in Monte Carlo along with her husband. Who is her husband? Let’s find out.

Who is Karolína Plíšková’s husband Michal Hrdlička?

Michal Hrdlička is a 35-year-old Czech TV presenter and sports analyst. He is also the manager of Karolína Plíšková. Hrdlička was born into a sports family and has been involved in sports since his childhood. His dream was to become a professional footballer but a knee injury shattered all his hopes. Besides football, he likes to be involved in tennis and loves running. 

Hrdlička has also worked in the sports editorial office of TV Nova and was the host of their Sportovni noviny and also worked as a commentator on sports events for TV Nova. In 2014, he got the chance to host a major sporting event for the first time in his career when he was asked to be the commentator for the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi. However, in July 2016, Hrdlička was sacked from his role by TV Nova. But why? We’ll find this out a bit later. First, let’s have a look at how he met his tennis diva.

How did Karolína Plíšková meet her husband?

Plíšková and Hrdlička first met each other on a night out just after the Czech Republic’s victory in the Fed Cup in 2015. Then in the summer of 2016, Hrdlička announced his relationship with the tennis player. Plíšková has openly admitted her admiration for Hrdlička and his sense of humor. How has been their journey so far with each other? A month ago Plíšková posted a picture on Instagram where she was seen celebrating her husband’s birthday.

Then in 2016, Plíšková came to his life. But that year was a mix-up of good and bad for Hrdlička as he got sacked the same year from Nova TV due to misconduct. Hrdlička was reportedly seen drunk and urinating in the streets of Karlovy Vary. Yes, you guessed it right! That’s the same city where Casino Royal from the Bond movie was filmed. During that time, he was also reportedly seen getting intimate with other girls in a drunken state. However, Hrdlička subsequently apologized. What was Plíšková’s reaction to her boyfriend’s scandal?

Well, Plíšková stood by his side and just a few months later she got engaged to Michal Hrdlička. She announced her engagement at the press conference of the 2017 US Open. The tennis superstar also confirmed all the speculations surrounding her engagement and revealed she had been engaged since Wimbledon that year. The news didn’t come too long after she became the first Czech woman to be the world number one in WTA rankings. 

In July 2018, the couple got married in an elaborate ceremony in Monaco. Karolína also changed her real name to Karolína Hrdlickova after the marriage. Does Karolína Plíšková have children? No, but she has a stepdaughter with her husband. The couple often shares their love for each other through their social media posts. Let’s have a look at some of them.

Instances when Karolína Plíšková has openly flaunted her love

There have been several instances when the 31-year-old tennis superstar showcased her romance with the love of her life. When asked about how important her privacy is when it comes to her relationship, Plíšková had once said, “Yeah, actually I wanted to share it by myself, but there were some Czech newspapers, they find out. It was not like really from my side that I would put it first on Instagram or somewhere. I think my personal life is important to me, and also for my career. Now, my husband, I don’t call him husband, I call him Michal, he’s been working for me in some ways in a lot of things, so everything I think is working pretty well with us.”

Plíšková even has inked the letter ‘M’ on her waist dedicated to her husband, Michal Hrdlička. In 2017, she was seen uploaded a picture of them and captioned it ‘my soulmate’ with a heart. Her picture with Hrdlička while hanging out by the pool got a great response from her fans. Hrdlička has also been always supportive of Plíšková.
