'I caught Martina Hingis having s*x in hotel room'

Swiss tennis star Martina Hingis's entry into the International Tennis Hall of Fame in the US this weekend is being overshadowed by a media storm over her off-court infidelities.

Her estranged husband has broken his silence about their marriage.

Thibault Hutin, 26, a French equestrian, married the 32-year-old Hingis in Paris in December 2010 but quickly discovered Hingis wasn't only playing doubles with him.

Hutin, who was 24 when he married the then-30-year-old Hingis, says he believes Hingis is a serial adulteress.  

 

'Martina has a very personal conception of morality,' he told a newspaper. 

'She has always been like that; I think she has always been unfaithful to her boyfriends.'

"A year after the wedding . . . we were supposed to meet in New York and I wanted to giver her a surprise,"  said Hutin.

"Upon arriving at the hotel room it was me that was surprised," Hutin said.

On Monday, Schweizer Illustrierten magazine reported an announcement by Hingis that she and her husband had been separated since the beginning of the year. 

 

Hingis is now reported to be in a relationship with David Tosas Ros, a Spanish sports management executive. The pair were spotted sitting together at Roland Garros.

Hutin said: "They shared the hotel room there and they paraded themselves in public at the in the Bois de Boulogne. There are even pictures of them. You can imagine how painful it was for me.” 

  

Dubbed “the little princess of Trübbach”, the fresh-faced player's clean-cut image took a knock in 2007 after testing positive for cocaine during the Wimbledon tournament.

She denied using the drug but did not contest a ban imposed by the International Tennis Federation.

The US Tennis Hall of Fame is due to recognise the Slovakian-born former professional player for her five Grand Slam titles 

 

Martina kept the world number one ranking for 209 weeks, winning three straight Australian Opens, one Wimbledon title and one US Open between 1997 and 1999.

She also held the world number-one doubles ranking for 35 weeks, making her one of just five women in history to have been the world number-one in singles and doubles simultaneously, the Hall of Fame noted.

Hingis' representatives did not respond to requests for comment.
