Tennis icon Boris Becker has announced the birth of his fifth child, a baby daughter named Zoë Vittoria Becker, marking a joyful new chapter for the former Wimbledon champion.
A Joyful New Arrival
The newborn, Zoë Vittoria Becker, entered the world on Friday, 21 November 2025. Her birth came just one day before her father celebrated his 58th birthday, making for a doubly special weekend for the Becker family.
Becker's wife, Lilian de Carvalho Monteiro, is the baby's mother. The couple tied the knot in a ceremony last September, and Lilian was a steadfast source of support for Becker during his recent legal troubles and subsequent incarceration.
Expanding the Family
This is the fifth child for the German tennis star. Becker is already a father to four other children from his previous relationships, making the Becker household a bustling and lively one.
The birth signifies a period of profound personal renewal for Becker. He was released from a UK prison in December 2022 after serving an eight-month sentence for concealing millions in assets during his bankruptcy proceedings. Following his release, he was deported to his native Germany.
Looking to the Future
In past statements, Becker has expressed profound gratitude for his freedom, once remarking, 'I'm fortunate I can stand on my feet' after his prison term. The arrival of his daughter with Lilian powerfully symbolises a positive and hopeful future, firmly putting the challenges of the past behind him.
The family is undoubtedly relishing this precious time together as they welcome their new baby girl and look ahead to what the future holds.
