Novak Djokovic won the Paris 2024 Olympic gold medal on the evening of August 4, completing the last missing piece and creating a perfect ending in his career.
Unlike the Grand Slam or the Masters 1000 titles, the Olympics is Novak Djokovic's most difficult medal.
For many years, the Serbian tennis player has always known how to attract public attention with a series of outstanding records. Besides, he also became the center of attention many times because of his nearly 2-decade long love affair with his wife Jelena Djokovic.
Djokovic and Jelena are childhood friends who have been together since 2005 after playing tennis in high school. The couple dated for 9 years and married in 2014, after Djokovic's second Wimbledon championship. Their wedding was held in Sveti Stefan, a small coastal town in Montenegro.
In October 2014, Jelena gave birth to her first son and then welcomed her little princess in 2017. However, the couple rarely posts pictures of their two children on social networks, often cleverly hiding their faces.
Jelena often accompanies her husband in tournaments. The beauty appeared in the stands, always passionate about watching Novak Djokovic compete. Every path the tennis star goes through has the figure of his attractive wife born in 1986.
However, their marriage also went through a lot of turmoil. In 2017, many people believed that family-related issues were the cause of Djokovic's decline in performance. The 37-year-old tennis player was caught appearing with many different models, sparking rumors of infidelity.
Two years later, rumors of Novak Djokovic and his wife's separation flooded the newspapers. It stemmed from the fact that Jelena did not attend any matches at Wimbledon, nor did she appear at the party for the champion.
The same year, the noise continued to increase when the two did not write public congratulations on their 5th wedding anniversary.
But the rumors were self-extinguished after Wimbledon 2019. Djokovic and his wife vacationed in Croatia, appearing with many sweet moments, implicitly affirming that their marriage was still stable.
The Paris 2024 Olympic champion once frankly shared: "I know people like to read that Nole and Jelena are about to divorce rather than that Nole and Jelena are in love. But that doesn't affect me and Jelena, because we love each other." ".
After a series of rumors, the two are still happy and living a peaceful life. Since then, Novak Djokovic's marriage is still talked about by many people, but there is no longer a story of rifts like before.
Jelena was born in 1986 and graduated with a degree in Luxury Brand Management at Bocconi University (Milan). She takes on the role of director of the charity organization that Novak Djokovic founded to help children in difficult circumstances. Besides, Jelena also works as a model and representative for brands.
