Reflecting on their enduring love story, Andre previously told E!: “We love cooking together. We love hiking together. We even love grocery shopping together, dividing and conquering. So it’s real life. And we’re blessed.”

In 2004, Andre heaped praise on Steffi as he introduced her at the International Tennis Hall of Fame induction ceremony. “As I attempt to find words worthy to introduce the person that has changed my life, I realize the words have yet to be invented that are large enough, colourful enough, or true enough to express the heart and soul of this woman that I love,” Andre said.
