Andy Roddick, a former world No. 1 tennis player and US Open champion, has built a life with wife Brooklyn Decker, a prominent figure in fashion and Hollywood. Their relationship began unconventionally in 2007 when Roddick reached out to Decker after seeing her online, leading to their engagement in March 2008. They married on April 17, 2009, at Roddick's home in Austin, Texas, with a ceremony attended by guests and a performance by Elton John.
Balancing their demanding careers was challenging, but Roddick later credited their engagement as a stabilizing force. Since Roddick's retirement from tennis in 2012, the couple has focused on their family, raising their two children, Hank, born in October 2015, and Stevie, born in 2017. Decker, who first gained prominence through the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue, transitioned to acting, notably playing Mallory Hanson in the Netflix series Grace and Frankie from 2015 to 2022.
Beyond acting, Decker co-created a digital wardrobe app called Finery, which was acquired by Stitch Fix, and serves as a global ambassador for the Special Olympics. The couple marked their 17th wedding anniversary in April 2026, continuing to build a life together that has garnered significant attention.
