Roger Federer and Mirka: A Lasting Partnership On and Off the Court

Long after Roger Federer hung up his racket, his most enduring partnership remains firmly intact. The Swiss legend, widely regarded as one of the greatest tennis players of all time, is still very much with his wife, Mirka Federer. Their love story began far from the spotlight—on the sidelines of the 2000 Sydney Olympics, where both were representing Switzerland in tennis. What started as a shared journey in sport grew into a lifelong bond.

The couple tied the knot in a private ceremony in 2009, and over the years, their relationship has been a quiet anchor in Federer’s extraordinary career. While Roger dazzled on Centre Court, Mirka—once a promising player herself—stepped away from the professional tour in 2002 due to recurring injuries. From that point on, she became his constant companion, rarely missing a major tournament. Whether it was Wimbledon or the US Open, Mirka was there—cheering from the stands, offering quiet support, and managing much of his public presence behind the scenes.

Together, they’ve built more than a marriage—they’ve built a family. The couple shares four children, and since Roger’s retirement in 2022, they’ve embraced a quieter life, focused on privacy, philanthropy, and shared passions. Even now, as of February 2026, Mirka continues to play a key role in Roger’s post-career ventures, from his foundation to business interests.

Their partnership stands out not for its glamour, but for its steadiness. In an era where fame often fractures relationships, Roger and Mirka’s enduring connection is a quiet testament to loyalty, mutual respect, and love that thrives beyond the spotlight.
