In March 2023, Kostyuk announced her engagement, and in November 2023 she married her fiance Hryhoriy.

Her father was the technical director of the Antey Cup, a junior tennis tournament in Kyiv; her mother was a professional tennis player who reached a career-high WTA ranking of No. 391, and won a $10k title in her home city of Kyiv in 1994, and represented a Ukrainian tennis team.

Kostyuk is the younger sister of Mariya Kostyuk, who competed for Chicago State University and Southeast Missouri State University, and a cousin of professional football players Vadym and Miro Slavov and gymnast Oksana Slavova.

Kostyuk started playing tennis at a young age at the Antey Tennis Club, on the west side of Kyiv, coached by her mother.

She described her initial experience in tennis at age five: "My mom was always working a lot as a coach, and the first time I went to the courts to train, I just understood that if I started doing tennis, I'd get to spend more time with my mom. So that was kind of my motivation – if I played tennis, I'd be around her more often".

By defeating Peng Shuai in the first round, Kostyuk became the youngest player to win a main-draw match in Melbourne since Martina Hingis in 1996.

In the second round, she defeated Australian wildcard Olivia Rogowska in straight sets.

In doing this, she became the youngest player to reach the third round of a Grand Slam event since Mirjana Lučić-Baroni reached the same stage at the 1997 US Open.

However, she fell in round three to fourth seed and compatriot player Elina Svitolina.
