Satta was previously married to soccer player Kevin-Prince Boateng, with whom she shares a son, Maddox Prince. Speaking to Vanity Fair Italy in May 2023, she stated that she did not want to date another athlete. However, she shared a lot with Matteo:

We have a lot in common, and are deeply connected to each other. With him, I always feel like myself. We live a very serene relationship; there is transparency, no pretence or mask. We deal with any type of topic; there are no taboos.

In February 2024, Matteo confirmed their split in a press conference, according to The Sun. He said:

Melissa Satta and I are no longer together. What I can say is that we had a beautiful, intense relationship, we have great respect for each other. I won't go beyond this; I don't like sharing my private life too much.

Berrettini's most famous long-term relationship was with fellow tennis player Ajla Tomljanović. The tennis power couple started dating in 2019 and often appeared together in the Netflix docuseries Break Point.

According to Essentially Sports, Tomljanović spoke about her relationship with Matteo Berrettini on the docuseries, saying:

You can hear people say that they never date a tennis player because, I don't know, they don't like that they do the same thing, that it's always about tennis. But, in reality, we don't talk about tennis a lot.

Berrettini and Tomljanović supported each other through major tournaments, including a shared run to the Wimbledon quarter-finals in 2021. They officially parted ways in early 2022.
