Former tennis star Andy Roddick made a notable appearance at Wimbledon, accompanied by his wife, Brooklyn Decker. The couple attended the renowned tournament on Saturday, July 5, where Roddick, now 42, donned a stylish gray blazer paired with navy trousers.
Seated in a private box, Roddick and Decker, 38, showcased a coordinated look; Decker opted for a chic blue top and pinstripe slacks. Her outfit was complemented by delicate gold jewelry and oval-shaped sunglasses, while her signature blonde hair cascaded in loose waves.
Roddick, who reached the Wimbledon finals in 2004, 2005, and 2009 but did not secure a title, married Decker in 2009. The couple welcomed their son Hank in 2015 and daughter Stevie in 2017, creating a family that balances both public and private life.
Reflecting on the challenges of parenthood, Decker shared insights with Us Weekly about the dynamics of their marriage. “It does become hilariously transactional,” she remarked in April 2022. “You’re like, ‘I’ve got the kids, you go buy the tampons, go get the diapers.’” This candid admission highlights the couple's practical approach to managing their busy lives.
Efficiency is paramount for Decker as she navigates motherhood. “I do think it’s easy to get caught up in the management of life,” she noted. “However, we do set aside time; we prioritize it.”
Raising their children away from the Hollywood spotlight, Decker and Roddick chose to settle in North Carolina. “We were like, ‘OK, we get one chance to raise these kids,’” Decker explained in an interview with Garden & Gun magazine. Their decision to move from Texas just before the COVID-19 pandemic was driven by a desire for family support.
Decker described their living arrangement as multigenerational, with her parents’ house connected to theirs. “It feels like a really old-school way of living,” she said, emphasizing the importance of family bonds. “The slowing down, cooking together, kids running barefoot in the yard — all of that is reminiscent of my childhood.”
In designing their home, Decker aimed to create a “happy spot” for her family. “It’s one of the few places where our kids can run around,” she added. “They can foster their independence. It feels slow and nostalgic in the best way.”
