Nick Kyrgios’ girlfriend Costeen Hatzi rushed to hospital in Mexico and ‘goes straight to emergency’

Nick Kyrgios’ girlfriend Costeen Hatzi was rushed straight from her plane to emergency care in Mexico last month when she became seriously ill with a kidney infection.

Recalling the horrifying ordeal on Thursday, the psychology degree graduate, 22, said she ‘had a fever on the flight’.

Despite the ‘scary’ experience, the influencer told her Instagram followers she made a full recovery and was cared for by the ‘tennis association and hospital staff’.

‘I was so sick in hospital I didn’t get to see much of Mexico!’ Hatzi wrote in a Q&A when a fan asked how her trip last month went. 

‘I had a fever on the flight and ended up going straight to emergency when we landed. I had a kidney infection.

‘Luckily the tennis association and hospital staff were so extremely caring & helpful. But it was a little scary being so sick in a whole different country. The tacos were amazing though.’

Kyrgios, 27, and his girlfriend were in Mexico where the tennis star was playing against Norrie in the Tennis Showdown exhibition event – he won the match.

The pair became an item in December last year after he split with long-time girlfriend Chiara Passari.

In July, the lovebirds confirmed they will try for a baby next year.

During an Instagram Q&A, Kyrgios was asked a baby question and replied with a picture of the pair on the beach captioned ‘next year’ alongside a ring emoji.

Engagement rumours circulated about the couple in May after another Q&A showed the tennis ace hugging the former interior designer with the caption, ‘Very soon,’ alongside heart and ring emojis.

However, Kyrgios’ management soon denied the pair were engaged.
