Tennis superstar Novak Djokovic recently opened up about one of the most cherished moments of his life—his proposal to his wife, Jelena Djokovic. In a heartwarming interview, Djokovic shared the emotional and unforgettable reaction Jelena had when he popped the question, a moment he says will remain etched in his memory forever.

Novak described the day he proposed to Jelena as one of the most nerve-wracking experiences of his life, despite being accustomed to the pressure of performing on the world’s biggest tennis stages. The couple, who met as teenagers and have been together for over a decade, were enjoying a romantic getaway when Novak decided to take the plunge.

“I was so nervous,” Djokovic admitted. “I knew I wanted to spend the rest of my life with her, but I wanted the moment to be perfect. I wasn’t sure how she would react, even though deep down, I hoped she felt the same way.”

When Novak got down on one knee and asked Jelena to marry him, her reaction was nothing short of magical. According to Novak:
“She burst into tears immediately, and for a moment, she couldn’t even speak. Then she hugged me so tightly and just kept saying, ‘Yes, yes, yes!’ It was the most beautiful moment of my life.”

What struck Novak the most was what Jelena said afterward. Through her tears, she told him:
“You’ve made me the happiest woman in the world. I can’t wait to spend every day of my life with you.”

Novak revealed that those words have stayed with him ever since, serving as a reminder of the deep bond they share. “It’s a moment I replay in my mind whenever I need strength or motivation. Knowing she believes in me and loves me unconditionally means everything.”

Since their engagement, Novak and Jelena have built a beautiful life together. Married in 2014, the couple now has two children, Stefan and Tara, and often share glimpses of their family life with fans. Despite Novak’s demanding career, Jelena has been a constant source of support, standing by his side through victories, challenges, and everything in between.

Fans and followers of the couple were quick to express their admiration for their love story. Many praised the couple for being an inspiration, both on and off the court.

“Novak and Jelena are the epitome of true love. Their story is so beautiful!” one fan commented on social media.

Another added: “This just proves that behind every great man is an incredible woman.”

Novak Djokovic’s touching revelation about his proposal to Jelena highlights the profound love and respect they share. Their journey together is a testament to the power of partnership, trust, and unwavering support. As Novak continues to dominate the world of tennis, it’s clear that his greatest champion will always be Jelena.
