American tennis star Danielle Collins has revealed her ideal partner in a brutally honest dating profile that is going viral.

The 31-year-old recently split with Bryan Kipp, the vice president of a biotech firm, after a year together.

Collins had previously intended to retire at the end of 2024 to focus on having a family, but her endometriosis prompted her to change plans.

She also said she’d be open to going on reality TV show The Bachelorette to find love, but appears to have taken matters into her own hands.

Sharing a screenshot of her own dating profile, Collins says she wants to start a family and told short people to leave her alone.

“Currently a professional tennis player, but kind of aspiring to be a trad wife. Straight up,” her profile says.

“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.”

She also posted a screenshot of one hopeful man sliding into her messages.

“(let me know) if you wanna be a power couple. I got a nasty forehand and the opposite of a temper hahaha,” the message read.

But Collins immediately shot the person down and offered some advice to anyone else trying the same thing.

“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,” she wrote.

Her Instagram story posts have quickly gone viral on social media.

A thread on Reddit has quickly racked up thousands of views and hundreds of comments.

Some fans laughed at her honest approach, while others called her “mean” and a “walking red flag”.

How far she goes with her dating profile remains to be seen, but she wouldn’t be opposed to going on a reality TV show to find love.

“I would consider maybe going on reality TV, but it depends. Like I don’t know if they can afford me. Listen, you know what I mean?” she said on The Gay Tennis Podcast.

“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.

“I mean, I would definitely consider it, but where would I be doing the Bachelorette? Like which country do you think? Like Australia.”

Collins competed at the Australian Open this year when she was booed off the court multiple times.

In the second round, Collins, who was seeded 10th, defeated local hope Destanee Aiava in a fiery clash in front of a parochial crowd.

After winning the match, the American cupped her hand around her ear, yelled “how about that?”, blew sarcastic kisses towards the grandstand and slapped her backside — celebrations that drew a flood of boos.

She was also booed relentlessly in her third-round match that saw her crash out to eventual champion Madison Keys.

Collins continued to rile up fans by later posting photos of her “five-star vacation” that she referenced in the spicy post-match interview following the Aiava clash.
