Taylor Fritz's girlfriend Morgan Riddle reveals unusual inspiration from 'Peaky Blinders'
Taylor Fritz's girlfriend Morgan Riddle has begun posting weekly vlogs on her YouTube channel.
The social media influencer uses the platform to capture snippets of her life along with behind-the-scenes content from tennis tournaments and her take on various topics including travel tips, fashion and lifestyle.
Taking to Instagram on Wednesday, Riddle revealed that the inspiration for the introduction cards to her videos is the award-winning British period drama series 'Peaky Blinders' -- starring Cillian Murphy, Tom Hardy, Paul Anderson and Helen McRory, among others.
The series' location cards have the same look and feel, including a similar font, which she showcased with a screenshot from one of the episodes in the series.
Riddle's YouTube videos are already a big hit among tennis fans, with her channel hitting 16.2k subscribers. Her latest video, in which she covered the Miami Open, garnered more than 21k views on the platform.
Taylor Fritz lauds girlfriend Morgan Riddle's efforts to popularize tennis
Taylor Fritz made a quarterfinal exit at the 2023 Miami Open after a straight-sets loss to top seed Carlos Alcaraz.
In a post-match press conference, the American was asked about his girlfriend Morgan Riddle's efforts to popularize the sport. He stated that it was a goal that both of them shared and showered praise on Riddle for using her social media influence to promote tennis, especially among an age group that is not catered to by traditional methods.
"It's always been one of my goals to just see tennis grow and make tennis more popular outside of the casual tennis fan. I wanted tennis to become a more well-known and talked about sport in the US," Fritz said.
"She's always known that that's been one of my goals, and she's kind of done a really good job of finding this niche of content and, I guess, trying to popularize tennis," Fritz remarked. "It's been really great. Impressive as well with what she's been able to do and generate a lot of hype for tennis. You know, reach people that, I guess, tennis normally wouldn't reach."
The couple started dating three years ago and are still going strong, with Riddle frequently spotted in Fritz's player's box.
The former World No. 5 will be in action next at the Monte-Carlo Masters, which is set to kick off on April 8. Fritz is the provisional eighth seed at the Masters 1000 tournament following the withdrawal of players such as Carlos Alcaraz and Felix Auger-Aliassime.
