Pip Edwards has revealed her surprising friendship with tennis power couple Nick Kyrgios and Costeen Hatzi.
The Sydney fashion designer and socialite, 44, dressed in her best denim to attend the first of Drake’s four Sydney concerts on Sunday night in VIP style.
She attended the concert with Ksubi CEO Craig King and her best friend Milly Gattegno, but couldn’t resist a backstage photo opportunity with the Australian tennis star.
Pip looked to be having the time of her life as she posed for a cheeky snap with Nick in a private box at Sydney Olympic Park, after the tennis player arrived to the concert in a limousine with a group of friends and his girlfriend Costeen.
The Ksubi creative director shed her denim jacket to flaunt her toned midriff in a cropped white singlet as she enjoyed the open bar and refreshments on hand for the rapper’s invited guests.
Nick pointed finger guns at the camera while dressed in a black hoodie and pants, Nike Jordan sneakers and a green baseball cap.

In September, Pip announced her return to Ksubi, the Aussie streetwear brand she helped build with her ex Dan Single two decades ago.
The news came just weeks after the P.E Nation co-founder made the shock revelation she was leaving her post as Creative Director of her own popular athleisure label.
‘From its inception, Ksubi has been at the core of the global cultural zeitgeist, thriving at the intersection of where fashion, art, and music meet,’ Pip wrote in the announcement.
Kyrgios, who crashed out of the Australian Open in his first grand slam match in over two years, and Drake cemented their friendship in 2023.
The tennis player revealed the God’s Plan hitmaker had slid into his DMs, responding to a tweet he’d made when he was 19-years-old.
The Canadian rapper is a huge sports fan and sports better, who is well known for placing losing bets.
The “Drake curse” is a popular belief among gamblers that any athlete or team that receives support from the rapper will lose the sporting event in which they’re participating.

Kyrgios was playing at Wimbledon and lost the first set of his third round match to Jiri Vesely, and tweeted that he’d never listen to Drake again after the loss.
‘I also want to meet this guy that says that he lost because he listened to my music,’ Drake said at the time.
‘I also want to meet that guy and look him in the eye and see exactly who he is as a man and size him up and then chop him right down. Nick whatever-his-name-is — because he didn’t win, so that’s how he’s going to be remembered.’
‘When you said I was trash it hurt me cause you really my fav player,’ Drake messaged Nick some 10 years later.
‘Haha I didn’t say you are trash. I love your music my bro… hope you are good,’ he replied in 2023.
Drake responded: ‘We will link up soon’ and ‘Speedy recovery my guy’.
Kyrgios posted the exchange on his Instagram Stories with the caption, ‘Sometimes I think my life isn’t real’.
On Sunday, the two men appeared to rekindle their bromance as Drake appeared to treat Nick and his friends to a VIP arrival to the Sydney leg of his Anita Win Max tour.
In videos shared to his Instagram Stories, Nick and, glamorous girlfriend Costeen and a handful of their friends enjoyed a limousine ride to the concert.
They were seen drinking and singing along to Drake songs in preparation for the show.
Following his recent defeat at the Australian Open, Kyrgios hinted at his pending retirement from the sport after vowing not to play another singles match at the competition.
‘I’m getting old. 28. But with all the drinking & partying I’m 57… 33 is insane. I’m not playing till I’m 33,’ he said.
Meanwhile, his Sydney-based girlfriend’s influencer career is going from strength to strength.
