Who Is Taylor Fritz’s Ex-Wife and the Mother of His Son?
Tennis player Taylor Fritz once had a high-profile relationship with influencer Morgan Riddle, who first garnered international attention in 2022 after Fritz’s impressive showing against superstar Rafael Nadal at the 2022 Wimbledon Championships.
The two broke up in April 2026 after nearly six years of dating, but what some fans don’t know is that before Riddle, Fritz was married and shares a son with that woman.
Here’s more on the athlete‘s ex-wife and why you may recognize her.
Who is Fritz’s ex-wife?
Fritz was previously married to Raquel Pedraza. She was born on Jan. 28, 1998, in Fountain Valley, California. Her father is Mexican, and she has dual citizenship.
If you follow tennis, then you may recognize Pedraza because, like her former husband, she has played the sport professionally. Her WTA ranking in 2014 was 86. Her last match was during the 2015 Australian Open.
Pedraza and Fritz began dating when they were teenagers, and in 2016, Fritz popped the question under the Eiffel Tower in Paris. He recorded the moment on his X (known then as Twitter) account with the caption: “She said ‘Yes!'”
On July 7 of that same year, they tied the knot at a church in Rancho Santa Fe, California, which is Fritz’s hometown. At the time of their marriage, he was 18 years old.
When they had a child and when they got divorced
One year after saying “I do,” Fritz and Pedraza welcomed a son together in January 2017. They named their little one Jordan.
In an interview with The Desert Sun, Fritz was asked about fatherhood and praised Pedraza for everything she had done and sacrificed.
“Nothing has changed since I became a father,” he told the publication at the time. “My wife, Raquel, has really stepped up and she’s just doing an amazing job because my dream is to be the best tennis player I can be.
“And I’m very fortunate to be with someone who shares the same dream as I do. She wants that more than anything. She’s willing to sacrifice her time and do whatever it takes so I can stay with my trainin,g and I can do everything exactly how I want to do it. I’m just really lucky, and I try to see him as much as I possibly can, obviously, because it’s amazing. It’s really amazing. [Jordan]’s here.”
However, things between Fritz and Pedraza didn’t work out, and in December 2019, the two divorced.
Since their marriage ended, Pedraza has tried to stay out of the spotlight as much as possible and hasn’t sparked dating rumors with anyone new.
