Anyone who follows tennis will know that Novak Djokovic's biggest supporters are his family.

Whether it's at Roland Garros, the US Open, or any other major grand slam, the athlete's wife, Jelena, and their adorable two children, Stefan, ten, and Tara, seven, are always by the sidelines cheering him on.

And this year's Wimbledon Championships are certainly no different.

Novak has, perhaps unsurprisingly, stormed through the 2025 grass tournament so far and is set to face world number one Jannik Sinner in the semi-finals on Friday, with the Serbian-born champ hoping to make it to the final and be in with a chance of bagging his eighth title at SW19.

Those who have been watching the 38-year-old's matches at the All England Lawn and Tennis Club this year might have also spotted that whenever Novak wins, he immediately looks over to his two children sitting in their private box as they perform a delightful 'pump it up' celebratory dance move.

Novak and Jelena bring their two children to grand slam tournaments so that Stefan and Tara can cheer their dad on, but on social media, the photos are few and far between.

The couple also conceal their faces with emojis, for an added layer of privacy.

It's clear they're keen to protect their children's privacy as much as possible, but when they do share photos, fans are overjoyed to see the beautiful family all together. 

This adorable snap that Jelena posted shows their shadows on the ground while out for a walk in the sunshine.

Novak's family are his number one fans, so when Djokovic won his first-ever gold medal at the Paris Olympics in 2024, the whole family gathered for a group photo.

Stefan, who is his dad's double, was wearing his medal proudly while Tara stood in front. 

Jelena looked overwhelmed with happiness and draped one arm around her husband and another around her boy.

This photo is stunning. 

Jelena shared this snap of the family-of-four running down the enormous lawn they have in their back garden at their home in Marbella, said to be worth $8 million, while holding balloons and decorations for Tara's birthday.

Thanks to Djokovic's Wimbledon success over the years, the family has become more than familiar with London. 

But it's not only SW19 they get to explore. 

This sweet snap shows Jelena walking hand in hand with her two children while heading towards the London Eye.
