Novak Djokovic has celebrated becoming a father for the first time.
The Serbian tennis star and his wife Jelena Ristic welcomed their baby son Stefan earlier this week, he confirmed on Twitter.
Announcing the news, the Wimbledon champion said: “Stefan, our baby angel was born! I am so proud of my beautiful wife Jelena!
“Thank you so much for your love and support. We love you all!!!”
An official statement from Djokovic’s camp read: “We are delighted to announce that Jelena Djokovic gave birth to a wonderful, healthy and lovely boy, called Stefan. The birth went in the best possible manner, baby and the mother feel well.
“Novak will spend the following several days with the baby and his wife Jelena, after which he travels to Paris, where he will compete at the ATP Masters tournament.”
The long-time couple married back in July, just four days after he won his second Wimbledon title.
