“Seeing her for the first time in her wedding dress, smiling and walking towards me… She looked like an angel,”  Novak said. “I was trying to be present in that moment and memorise it. I was focused on her, and her smile, and our baby. It really was a perfect moment.”

“I was seeing him through tears and immediately started crying when I saw him. I was just so happy and probably being pregnant makes it quite difficult to control the emotions. I am so blessed to have him in my life. I couldn’t ask for a better partner than him.” Jelena recalls. 

Novak and Jelena’s wedding became an even better day as it came just days after Djokovic’s Wimbledon win in 2014. Novak defeated Swigg legend Roger Federer in four sets to become the 2014 Wimbledon champion. 

Novak Djokovic kids: Stefan and Tara

Jelena Djokovic is quite social and doesn’t shy away from sharing photos from her personal life on social media. She has over 500k followers on the photo-sharing platform Instagram. She is often seen in the crowd, supporting her husband Novak Djokovic, with her kids.

Novak Djokovic Grand Slam Records

Novak Djokovic currently has 20 Grand Slam titles in his name which is two less than his arch-rival Rafael Nadal and is equal with Roger Federer. Novak Djokovic has failed to win a Grand Slam title in the first half of 2022 and would be looking forward to winning the Wimbledon since this would probably be his last chance at winning a title in 2022.

Novak also holds a total of 87 major titles and is the only male tennis player to hold all nine of the major tournament he has achieved this feat twice in his career. Novak Djokovic recently became the first male player to win 80 matches in all four Grand Slams. 

Novak Djokovic’s Controversies     

Novak Djokovic is considered to be outspoken and wears his heart on his sleeve. In January 2022, he got himself embroiled in a controversy with regard to the COVID-19 Vaccine regulations in Australia.

He had put in wrong and misguiding information in his VISA application which eventually go him deported from Australia.

He has been leading the Anti-Vax debate among the tennis stars and he even stated in an interview that he would not take the COVID vaccine even if it meant him missing a potential Grand Slam tournament. With the US Open coming up next after the Wimbledon, he is all set to miss the tournament unless the US health department relaxes its rules.

Before the Wimbledon, he acknowledged the fact that he is mentally prepared to miss out on the US Open. This would surely give him the right motivation to clinch the Wimbledon title since this would potentially be the last grand slam tournament for him.
