Talk about love stories and the one between Andy Murray and his wife, Kim, will leave you in awe. Not only is Murray an icon on the court but he also is a romantic person in his private life. The power couple have spent years with a closely-knit bond and they are still going strong. Further, their love affair couldn’t have found a better place to get busted than the tennis court itself.

As their bond grew, Kim played a crucial role in Murray’s career. She was there by him through thick and thin, absorbing his joyous moments and emotional outbursts equally. Let’s dig deep into the initial stages of their relationship.

Turning point in the relationship between Andy Murray and his wife

The 2005 US Open was the first time Murray was playing in the American Grand Slam tournament. During a party there, the former World Number 1 met Kim. The latter was traveling with her father, Nigel, who was head of the women’s section of the lawn tennis association in England.

As fortune favored, they struck an instant chord, and their romance developed quickly. However, the couple managed to keep it under the radar up until Murray won his first tournament. Playing in San Jose in 2006, the Briton wasn’t expected to win but he surprised everyone with his performance.

Following his victory, he approached his girlfriend in the crowd and kissed her. At that time, Kim was a school-going teenager and the news eventually popped up on the front cover of a newspaper, busting their love story. Subsequently, they tied the knot in 2015 after almost a decade together, and have four beautiful children. Kim has been Murray’s biggest cheerleader and always backed him during difficult times.
