Former Tennis Legend Andy Roddick and Wife Brooklyn Decker Celebrate 14th Wedding Anniversary
Former American tennis legend Andy Roddick and model wife Brooklyn Decker celebrated their 14th wedding anniversary this year. The couple first met in 2007 and got married in 2009. They have two children together, a son named Hank and a daughter named Stevie.
Decker shared a post on Instagram to commemorate their special day. The first picture showed the couple together, with Roddick looking unrecognizable with a lollipop in his mouth and a beard. The other snaps displayed past selfies of the duo. Brooklyn captioned the post, “May he be this excited to take pictures with me for the next 14. Happy Anniversary to my husband who is not on Instagram so will never see this.”
Now retired, Roddick was a former world No. 1 tennis player and won 32 career singles titles. He retired from the sport after the 2012 US Open and is now a broadcaster and created an eponymous foundation.
On the other hand, Decker is an American model who has been on the cover of Sports Illustrated, Victoria’s Secret, GQ, Esquire, and GAP. She also guest-starred in TV shows such as Ugly Betty, New Girl, Chuck, and Royal Pains.
When asked how she met Roddick, the model-actress recalled to the Tennis Channel, “I was hosting a show for football for Sports Illustrated and he got his attorney to call my agent at the time. I thought it was very shady as one would, and I did not call him back for five months. I was living in New York at the time and my now-manager said to me, ‘You have no friends, all your friends are in North Carolina where you grew up and why don’t you call this guy, I hear he’s really nice.'”
She then shared, “I googled him and I watched his press conference from the ’07 Aussie Open and he was just like super dry and sarcastic. I thought, ‘Well, that’s pretty funny [and he] looks like a charmer,’ and so…I called him back, and then we were together ever since.”
The couple has been together for over a decade now and their love still seems to be going strong.
