Tennis icon Andy Murray has been married to his wife, Kim Sears, for almost 10 years now. Their love story began unexpectedly at a US Open bash during their youth. 18-year-old Murray was in the midst of tournament tension, having faced a second-round setback. It was at this juncture that he crossed paths with Kim, whose father, Nigel Sears, was himself a pro player-turned-coach.
Their romance remained private for some time.

Celebrating his win, he shared a steamy kiss with Kim, expressing deep gratitude for her support.
In the post-match interview, Andy said, “First time she came to a tournament with me. I’m maybe more relaxed on court. I played really well and hopefully she’ll come to a few more tournaments.”
