How long have Caroline Wozniacki and David Lee been married?

Tennis star Caroline Wozniacki and retired NBA player David Lee became engaged in November 2017. They went on to marry in June 2019 in Italy, with longtime friend Serena Williams reportedly serving as a bridesmaid. 

In December 2019, Caroline announced on Instagram that she had made the decision to retire from tennis. She also opened up about her desire to start a family in the future.

‘I’ve always told myself, when the time comes, that there are things away from tennis that I want to do more, then it’s time to be done. In recent months, I’ve realized that there is a lot more in life that I’d like to accomplish off the court,’ she wrote in her deeply personal caption at the time. 

‘Getting married to David was one of those goals and starting a family with him while continuing to travel the world and helping raise awareness about rheumatoid arthritis (project upcoming) are all passions of mine moving forward.’ 

Congratulations to the parents-to-be on their exciting baby news!
