Andre Agassi, other than his achievements, is famous for his on-court behavior. He, unlike his rival Pete Sampras, was aggressive and expressed his unfiltered emotions during matches. Also, the American veteran often found himself tangled in disputes with his opponents and umpires.

Though people say that a player’s on-court temper and agony of distasteful results won’t have an effect in their personal life. However, it wasn’t the case with the 8-time Grand Slam champion. This was particularly evident during his unstable marriage with Hollywood star, Brooke Shields. Speaking of Shields, she once opened up about how hard their divorce could have been if the elements of their marriage were different.

Shields about breaking ties with Andre Agassi

Brooke Shields, while talking about how her relationship with the eight-time Grand Slam champion fell apart, addressed the ease with which they parted ways. She, in an interview given in 2013, said, “I am divorced. And mine was fairly quick, and relatively easy.”

Thereafter, she added, “But it’s a very interesting thing. Because he did say to me, ‘Be happy that we don’t have children or I would not have made this easy for you.’ And therein lies why I am not there anymore.” Shields received fame at the tender age of 12 by playing the lead role in Louis Malle’s movie Pretty Baby. Following that, she expanded her reach to modeling and starred in sitcoms such as Suddenly Susan and Lipstick Jungle while making a guest appearance in the famous sitcom, FRIENDS.
