After a hectic sporting season, Ben Shelton and his girlfriend Trinity Rodman recently spent Christmas together. The couple were joined by Rodman's mother Michelle and her brother Dennis, with the whole family enjoying a trip to Walt Disney World in Florida.

Shelton has had a busy 2025 season on the tennis courts. The American kicked off his year at the ASB Classic in January where he was handed an opening round loss. However, he made a strong recovery from the disappointment, going on to register a semifinals finish at the Australian Open and a win at the National Bank Open. On the other hand, Rodman was dealing with a back injury for the majority of 2025 and only returned to action in the latter half of the year.

Now, with the sporting season behind them, Ben Shelton and Trinity Rodman are making the most of their time together. The couple recently spent Christmas with each other. They were joined by Rodman’s mother Michelle and her brother Dennis, with Michelle sharing a snap of the family's trip to Walt Disney World on Instagram.
