Tennis star joins dating app after boyfriend split and tells 'short kings' to stay away

Danielle Collins has joined a dating app following her split with a man she initially met in a Wimbledon coffee shop. The 31-year-old was in a relationship with Bryan Kipp, a vice president of a biotech firm, after bumping into him in London. The pair recently called it quits, though, meaning Collins is freshly single.

She has since taken to Instagram, revealing to her fans that she was trying to find new love through a dating app. Her bio quickly drew attention, with Collins making it clear that she would only entertain men of a certain stature. She mentioned that she did not want 'short kings' clogging up her messages, urging them to stay away.

Her bio read: "Currently a professional tennis player, but kind of aspiring to be a trad wife. Straight up. Already had my boss babe era.

"Just wanting to raise my chickens, do home projects, make freshly baked sourdough, be a stay at home dog mom, and hopefully pop out some babies soon. If you're going to lie about your height just leave me the f*** alone. This is a no short kings zone."

After one brave individual reached out to Collins, she wrote: "I'll tell you what... if anyone has the balls to slide into my dm like this just make sure to attach your most recent bank statement while you're at it."

Collins recently hinted that she would be open to going on reality TV in an attempt to find a partner, but made it clear that it would cost a pretty penny.

"I would consider maybe going on reality TV, but it depends," she said during an appearance on .

"Like, I don't know if they can afford me. Listen, you know what I mean? Because this is like some blockbuster entertainment right here, right?

"You would have to really pay out the big bucks to get me on, like you know, The Bachelorette and that kind of thing. Yeah, I mean, I would definitely consider it."

Collins opened up about her now former boyfriend during Wimbledon run last year, where she reached the fourth round.

Speaking to the Tennis Channel, she said: "He didn't know anything about tennis, and he didn't know I was a tennis player, which was really nice.

"He was actually a bigger fan of golf and so he said: 'Well I really like golf. I don't really know much about tennis'. And I was like: 'Yes! That's so exciting'."
