In his podcast, Boris Becker explains that he would like to have a third marriage and that he would definitely like to become a father again.
"I am convinced that there will be a third wife Becker": In an interview with Johannes B. Kerner (56), Boris Becker explains in the Amazon podcast "The fifth sentence" that he still has big plans for his family. "I hope that I will have children again with the third Mrs. Becker." For him, marriage is the "best way of life", according to Becker. "I've tried everything, tried everything, I like to know where I belong, where my home is and that's better for me."
That he could be mistaken for grandpa instead of dad with a new child is no problem for the 53-year-old. "I've never been interested in the opinions of others." However, he wouldn't want to wait as long as Bernie Ecclestone (90). "But that is definitely my plan for my life, that I feel safe and comfortable with a wife and then, if possible, with a new child."
He learned that from the past
Due to his bad experience with a private life that is too public, his next relationship should take place in camera. "To regain my piece of private life, which I may have lost. If the new woman were an influencer, we would have a problem." You have to have the same sense of life together.
However, the father of four children of three women does not believe that another family would be child's play. About his previous experiences in this regard, he also says in the podcast: "Winning Wimbledon is difficult. To be number one in the world is more difficult. Bringing three families with four children under one roof is the most difficult task of my life."
