Shy’m and Benoît Paire lived a lovely romance for some time, after meeting in 2015. But their story finally ended, as the tennis player admitted in the columns of Society notably. An interview during which the ex-companion of Shy’m – which we find this Friday June 17, 2022 in Arthur’s game Visual Suspect (TF1) – had unveiled a prohibition that he defied for their couple. A sequence that dates back to 2016, when Benoît Paire participated in the Rio Olympics in August 2016.
In a relationship with the singer, the tennis player will sleep in the Olympic village to spend the night with her. “I laugh about it now, but it was a tough time. Not only for me but for her too, for my parents, my family“, he delivered to our colleagues. Benoît Paire gave his version of the facts: “The story is that basically, the Olympic Committee wanted my girlfriend to come and host parties at the Olympic Village…. Well, she came. And me, one night, I did not sleep in the village, but at the hotel with her. However, I did not have the right, it is the rule of the tennis federation.“
Benoît Paire plays with fire for Shy’m
This rule is applied to all French athletes, but Shy’m’s former boyfriend nevertheless specifies that some of them confirmed the exception. “Like Teddy Riner, who was with his wife and children“, he added. But to join his beauty at his hotel, the 33-year-old tennis player did not hesitate to play with the rules, thus proving the intensity of his feelings for the interpreter of So what!.
They rebuilt their lives after their “cool” relationship
If the couple did not continue together and each started a new life – Shy’m is now the mother of a little Tahoma, whose identity of the father remains unknown to the general public – Benoît Paire nevertheless seems to keep precious memories. “With my ex-girlfriend, our relationship was cool. She could travel, she was free of her schedule, we spent a lot of time together on tournaments“, he thus declared to Society Magazine, in 2019. Now in a relationship with Julie Bertin, he has just made a sensational announcement revealing that he was taking a tennis break for an indefinite period.
