Taylor Fritz Posts Shirtless Gym Photos Days After Morgan Riddle Split

Sometimes a breakup hits different in May. Tennis pro Taylor Fritz, 28, isn’t wasting any time signaling that single life suits him just fine—at least according to his Instagram feed. Less than a month after Us Weekly confirmed that Fritz had split from influencer Morgan Riddle after nearly six years of dating, the athlete posted a carousel of gym photos on Wednesday, May 13, captioned simply“Just been working.”The images featured plenty of shirtless weight-lifting moments, and the internet took immediate notice.

What makes this post worth talking about isn’t just the thirst trap energy—it’s the timing and tone. This is classic post-breakup messaging: focused, confident, and unapologetically about self-improvement. Fellow tennis player Reilly Opelka even joked in the comments that he could make the photos his screensaver. Fans chimed in with their own reactions, including one commenter who playfully suggested the shirtless shots resembled NFL legend Tom Brady. The carousel also included action shots from the court, reminding everyone that beneath the gym aesthetics, Fritz is still one of tennis’s serious competitors.

Meanwhile, Riddle, 28, has been handling the split with her own brand of post-breakup energy. She posted an Instagram photo in a T-shirt that read“World’s best ex-girlfriend,”followed by another video with the message“High standards because this is how my gay best friend treats me.”Both are taking the split public in their own ways—one through fitness flex, one through affirming self-worth.

The breakup itself had been quietly brewing. A source told Us in April that the pair had split over a month prior, so this Instagram moment is less shock and more stage-setting for what comes next. For context, Fritz and Riddle’s relationship began during the pandemic when they connected on Raya, a members-only dating app. Their first date? Sushi at his place and a screening of the horror film Midsommar—a choice Riddle herself acknowledged was pretty wild for a first impression. What started then evolved into nearly six years of shared life, globe-trotting for tennis tournaments, and even attending the 2024 Summer Olympics together.

Fritz had always been honest about the demands of his tennis schedule.“I don’t have this free time. I’m going to be traveling, like, every single week,”he told the New York Times in August 2023. But Riddle made it work—until apparently, she didn’t. Now we’re watching both move forward in real time, one gym photo and one empowering tee at a time.
