She never spoke so openly
She is rarely interviewed because Steffi Graf, 43, enjoys her life after her big tennis career, with husband Andre (42) and children Jaden Gil (10) and Jaz Elle (9).
But when she was visiting Germany, she also talked about private life in a TV magazine - revealing her own personal secret of luck . There is no sign of airs and pride!
Open as never before, she talks about her new home in Las Vegas (USA) and how all her loved ones live there as an extended family. And she admits - at first she did not care about the desert city: "It was not that easy to hire me on Las Vegas."
Out of love for her husband, she tried: " Andre was born here, he has many friends and family here. We have created a great environment. "How nice: Even her mother Heidi (70) and her brother Michael (41) live together with their family.
Steffi Graf : "It is very important to us that the children grow up anonymously. They have a completely normal environment, through the school and the sport, they found an incredibly fast connection. That they grow up in this quiet, which is very crucial for Andre and me. "
What also makes the tennis queen sympathetic: Steffi Graf knows how to appreciate her private happiness . She knows that this outweighs all the victories she has achieved. "I could not wish for another life, " she says. "I have two wonderful children, a perfect man, have my family in the immediate vicinity. Well, it's an absolute luxury. "
