Tennis WAGs feud: Nick Kyrgios' ex Chiara Passari says Brittany Hockley broke 'girl code'
Chiara Passari, Nick Kyrgios' ex-girlfriend, is angry with Brittany Hockley. The women are acquainted through tennis circles, as Hockley is dating tennis player Jordan Thompson. Hockley recently had Kyrgios on her 'Life Uncut' podcast, which reportedly irritated Passari, who said Hockley was merely looking to boost her own career. Passari, in a series of now-deleted comments, wrote: "You were there alongside us most of the travels and only had interests in connecting with the famous people."
The tennis champion appeared on Hockley's podcast on Saturday, February 12, and she posted a clip of the interview to Instagram with a caption that read, "This was one of my favourite chats. I love love so I love seeing this guy so happy. There's definitely a side to Kygs many people don't get to see."

Passari, who separated from Kyrgios in October 2021, said that he used words and phrases to talk about his new girlfriend Costeen Hatzi on Hockley's podcast that he once used to describe his relationship with her. "Nick did and said ALL the exact same things in the first months of being with me too. Saying 'I was the one', 'it was love at first sight' when we first met," Passari wrote. "He has a playbook – stop being blind to his awful abusive behaviour just for the views," she added furiously.
Passari's allegations are "not true," said Hockley in response to Passari's messages. “I’m confused, This has nothing to do with your relationship? I am sorry it didn’t work out with you… But I was there with my boyfriend, and in turn his friends and colleagues,” Hockley wrote on Instagram, according to the Daily Mail.
"You know what you've just said about me is not true. You don't know me so you cannot make this claim. We both know this to be true. I'm not disputing what he did or didn't say about you either?" Hockley responded, "This interview didn't have anything to do with you... I'm not going to have a public conversation with you about this and I'm not sure why you would want to." Hockley concluded by saying, "I am genuinely sorry you were so hurt in your relationship but please don't bring me into this and make nasty claims about me when it has nothing to do with me."
Passari continued in additional now-deleted comments, "I didn't say it had anything to do with my relationship. I do know you and what I said was true from what I saw. Just saying if you had any girl code you wouldn't be sticking up or having someone like him on your podcast when you saw FIRST HAND how he was."
Hockley responded, "I am replying to you out of courtesy, not because I want a conversation here. Again, this has nothing to do with me." Costeen Hatzi had already been told by Passari that her relationship with Kyrgios will most certainly end in tears. She dated the tennis star on and off from July to late last year, and their heated disputes kept them in the news almost all of the time. During an Instagram Q&A on Tuesday, Passari accused the former world No. 13 of 'love bombing' both her and Hatzi, according to her fans. The phrase refers to a manipulation technique when a partner woos a lover with over-the-top displays of attention and devotion at the start of a relationship before distancing themselves and breaking up.
Kyrgios' former girlfriend, Passari, told Daily Mail Australia that she didn't expect their relationship to endure after they went 'Instagram official' in December. She claimed Kyrgios had moved on too quickly after their breakup, and that he is "afraid to be alone," therefore he must always be in a relationship. She also believes his new relationship will follow in their footsteps, beginning with 'love bombing' and end in incessant squabbling.
