Love in the Spotlight 🌟
Tennis legend Justin Gimelstob and TV star Amanda Kloots are officially Hollywood’s newest "it" couple! The pair turned heads and captured hearts as they made their red carpet debut at An Unforgettable Evening on April 28, 2025, held at The Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills.
The event, hosted by the Women’s Cancer Research Fund, wasn’t just about fashion and philanthropy — it was the perfect stage for a red-hot romance reveal. 🔥
A Love Story That Served Itself Naturally 🎾💘
While the crowd saw glamour, what they didn’t see was the story that bloomed quietly behind the scenes. Amanda shared that their relationship is still in its early, exciting phase:
"It’s been absolutely lovely,” she told PEOPLE, smiling.
Justin, clearly smitten, added with a laugh:
“I’ve admired her long before she gave me a shot. I don’t ever want to leave this phase.”
Their “first date”? A playful mix-up. Justin jokes it was during a Formula 1 race in Las Vegas — though Amanda clarified they didn’t actually start dating until over a year later.
From Friendship to Fireworks 🎇
The pair met through mutual friends, and what started as a platonic bond eventually turned romantic. That organic connection made it easy for Amanda’s 5-year-old son, Elvis, to welcome Justin into their lives.
“We met as friends, so it felt natural,” Amanda said.
Justin added, “When the timing’s right, everything just flows.”
All the Feels: What They Adore About Each Other ❤️
Let’s be honest — love looks good on them.
Justin on Amanda:
-
“She’s not just beautiful — she’s graceful, strong, and kind.”
-
“She’s a phenomenal mom and a generous soul.”
-
“She’s got this amazing, positive energy that lights up a room.”
Amanda on Justin:
-
“He’s a wonderful man and an incredible father.”
-
“I love how he makes me feel taken care of.”
Healing Hearts and New Beginnings 🌈
Amanda’s late husband, Broadway star Nick Cordero, passed away in 2020 due to COVID-19 complications. But Amanda has always felt he’s cheering her on from the other side.
“In readings with mediums, he always says, ‘It’s coming. I know you’re lonely. Love is coming,’” she shared in 2024.
It looks like that love has finally arrived — and it’s glowing.
