Andre Agassi has revealed the secret to his 23-year marriage with Steffi Graf in a very rare relationship confession.
Two years after his divorce from Brooke Shields, the American tennis player, 53, exchanged vows with the German sportswoman, 54, in 2001 and they welcomed their first child, a son called Jaden, later that year. They expanded their family in 2003 with the birth of their daughter Jaz.
Fast forward two decades and the couple still share rare tributes to one another in interviews and on social media. This week was no exception, with Andre telling WSJ. Magazine that their strong bond boils down to being happy in yourself first.
“The first is to know yourself. You can’t come to a relationship needing the other to feel complete, or else you’re fighting multiple battles,” he explained.
Not only do they have a shared interest in tennis, with Andre winning eight Grand Slam titles while his wife has won 22 Grand Slam singles titles, but they have also both taken up pickleball, where they plan to compete against John McEnroe and Maria Sharapova in the Pickleball Slam 2.
