Katie Boulter reveals the only thing she DOESN'T like about being an honourary Aussie
Share:
Katie Boulter is enjoying life as an adopted daughter of Australia - although she draws the line at Vegemite. The British No1 has been dating Aussie No1 Alex de Minaur for five years and has enjoyed enthusiastic backing Down Under. But Boulter feels her support has reached a new level since she and De Minaur announced their engagement in December.

'I feel like I've already felt the love so much more here, even more than last year,' said the 28-year-old. 'Being in Sydney (for the United Cup), which is his home town, where he was born, it was my first proper time playing tennis there. Just walking out onto the court and hearing the crowd for me really did help.

'I felt very much at home and comfortable. Normally I'm the kind of person that dislikes going to new places. I felt very comfortable from the word go when I was there and that was completely because of them and how they've been treating me. Boulter is pictured with fiancee Alex de Minaur ahead of last month's United Cup in Sydney, where she was overjoyed with the reaction she got from the local crowd.

Britain's top-ranked woman says she's 'felt the love so much more' in Australia since the couple revealed their engagement in December. 'It makes a world of difference.'. De Minaur is often pictured on his fiancée's instagram enjoying a pub lunch or country walk, so has Boulter embraced Aussie culture in return? Does she have a favourite local delicacy?.
