But a cryptic post from the British tennis star suggests she may be getting ready to start a family.
It came after Belinda Bencic won the Abu Dhabi Open on Saturday and Madison Keys winning the Australian Open title – her maiden grand slam title – not long after getting married in November.
It was Bencic’s first WTA 500 title since giving birth to her daughter, Bella, last April.
Boulter, 28, appears to have been inspired by the comeback.

Taking to X, formerly Twitter, Boulter jokingly suggested settling down and having kids may improve her career prospects.
She said: “Get married = win slam. Have a baby = win 500 [taking notes emoji].”
Boulter has one WTA 500 title to her name – the San Diego Open in 2024 – but is yet to land a Grand Slam.
Aussie ace De Minaur was seemingly left in the dark over the post, and delivered a tongue-in-cheek reply by saying: “You got any ideas you wanna share with me??? [laughing emoji].”
Naomi Osaka, Caroline Wozniacki, Victoria Azarenka and Kim Clijsters have all experienced success in tennis after starting a family.
Boulter and De Minaur, 25, met on the Pro Tour circuit and have been smitten ever since.
