The couple started dating soon after Wawrinka split with his wife. Although there were rumors, it has been unconfirmed that the couple was in a relationship since 2014.

About their split, neither Wawrinka nor Vekic made any official statements. In 2019, soon after the split with Vekic, Wawrinka was asked about the same, but he did not provide any specific answer.
