Elina Svitolina and Gaël Monfils built one of tennis’s most recognisable relationships while establishing successful careers on opposite sides of the sport. Their marriage, which began in 2021, has now come to an end, with Svitolina announcing their separation in an emotional Instagram post.

The news has brought renewed attention to their life together, including the fortune they accumulated through years on tour, sponsorships and investments.

How the tennis stars met, married and became parents

Although they had crossed paths on the professional circuit, Monfils and Svitolina’s relationship began in 2018, when he invited her to join him and friends for drinks after she won the WTA Finals in Singapore. They began dating and later announced their engagement on Instagram on April 3, 2021, showing Svitolina’s three-stone emerald-cut ring against a snow-covered mountain backdrop.

The pair married in July 2021 and welcomed their daughter, Skaï, the following year. Svitolina returned to competitive tennis not long after becoming a mother, balancing family life with the demands of the tour.Their careers continued to produce notable milestones together. In 2026, Svitolina won the ASB Classic women’s singles title in Auckland, matching Monfils’ 2025 men’s singles triumph there and making them one of the few married couples to win singles titles at the same tournament in consecutive years.

Elina Svitolina and Gaël Monfils’ net worth and career earnings

The couple’s combined net worth in 2026 has been estimated at around $40–42 million, although those figures are not independently verified and should be treated as estimates. Their wealth reflects long careers at the highest level, with prize money providing a substantial foundation and endorsements adding to their earnings.

Svitolina has earned more than $25 million in WTA prize money, while Monfils has collected more than $24.4 million on the ATP Tour.

Their endorsement portfolios have included established sports and luxury brands, with Svitolina associated with Wilson, Rolex and Adidas, and Monfils with Wilson, Asics and other sponsors.

Endorsements, investments and the fortune beyond tennis

Prize money has been central to the couple’s estimated wealth, but sponsorships and commercial opportunities have also contributed. Their visibility, distinctive playing styles and large social-media followings made them attractive to brands, while their careers gave them opportunities to plan financially beyond tournament earnings.Neither has been widely associated with a sprawling business empire, though the supplied estimates list real estate and other business interests among their investments. Reports in 2025 also referred to their backing of a free community-facility initiative valued at around £3 million, reflecting a philanthropic dimension to their public lives.

Their financial position is not a public accounting of assets, liabilities or how property and investments are divided.

The combined estimate therefore describes their reported wealth during their marriage, not a confirmed assessment of either person’s individual finances following the separation.

Svitolina announces the end of their marriage

On Instagram, Svitolina described announcing the separation as “the most difficult thing I have ever had to share.” She said the psychological toll of the war in Ukraine had affected her mental and emotional well-being over the past year, bringing sleepless nights, self-doubt and a feeling that she was losing herself.She also acknowledged Monfils’ support during that period, writing, “He never let go of my hand.” But Svitolina said she needed to pursue personal healing outside the marriage, explaining: “No amount of love from someone else can win them for you.”

She made clear that the separation did not end their commitment to their daughter. “Our marriage is ending, but our family is not,” she wrote, adding that Skaï would remain their priority and asking the public to respect their privacy rather than assign blame.

The announcement comes as Monfils prepares to leave professional tennis. In October 2025, he said on Instagram that the 2026 season would be his last, thanking those who had supported him, including Svitolina, whom he called his “love, inspiration, and strength,” and their daughter. He has reportedly been listed as retired by the sport’s drug-testing organisation, with his career ending on October 5, 2026.Their marriage is now over, but the careers, earnings and family they built together remain part of both players’ stories.
