“Kris Humphries’ Pickleball Comeback and Dance with Genie Bouchard Raises Eyebrows

“Kris Humphries’ Pickleball Comeback: The pickleball world has found itself buzzing with more than just competitive play this week. Kris Humphries, best known as Kim Kardashian’s ex-husband, has sparked fresh romance rumors after being spotted with professional tennis-turned-pickleball player Genie Bouchard. The duo was seen getting close during the 2024 Professional Pickleball Association tour in Dallas, Texas, where Bouchard, 30, was competing.

Shared Moments in Dallas

While Bouchard was focused on her game, advancing to the final 16 of the tournament, it wasn’t just her athleticism catching attention. She and Humphries, 39, were seen sharing an intimate moment at a local bar, where they danced together, sending fans into a frenzy.

Fellow pickleball player Marcela Hones captured the dance in a video, which she posted to Instagram on Monday, November 11. In the footage, Bouchard wraps her arms around Humphries’ waist, while he playfully places a leg around her.

Bouchard later shared a series of photos from her Dallas trip on Instagram, but Humphries was notably absent from the images. Despite the lack of direct confirmation, the pair’s interaction has ignited speculation among fans and followers.

Moving On From Past Relationships

For Bouchard, this is yet another chapter in her personal life. Just months after parting ways with Christie Brinkley’s son, Jack Brinkley-Cook, in July, she seems to be embracing the single life.

On the other hand, Humphries has largely stayed out of the public eye since his brief, highly publicized marriage to Kardashian. Their whirlwind romance began in 2010, resulting in a rapid engagement, wedding, and subsequent divorce within the span of a few months.

Though Humphries’ marriage to Kardashian garnered massive media attention, the former NBA player has since pivoted his focus. After his divorce, he briefly dated model Neyleen Ashley in 2021 but has remained low-key. However, Humphries has also made a name for himself in the pickleball world, where he’s been climbing the ranks among competitive players.

Humphries’ New Passion for Pickleball

“I love pickleball,” Humphries said earlier this year during the Pickleball Central Indoor USA Championships.

His newfound dedication to the sport has not only helped him step out of the shadow of his past but has also gained him a following among the pickleball community.
