The breakdown of the relationship, which culminated in late January, involved public revelations of new romantic partnerships and subsequent media attention surrounding both families.
According to interviews given by Cibulková to Šport24.sk prior to the finalization of the divorce, the couple experienced significant strain following the birth of their children and increasing professional demands. Cibulková stated that despite attempting couples therapy, their schedules and household dynamics shifted away from what they experienced in earlier years. Early signs of the separation included Cibulková appearing without her wedding and engagement rings, as well as the couple spending the Christmas holidays apart, as reported by Diva.sk.
