Sharapova and her fiancé, Alexander Gilkes, began dating in 2018. They became engaged in December 2020 and welcomed baby Theodore on July 1, 2022. Gilkes is a British businessman, art auctioneer, and former classmate of Prince William and Harry.

The post comes just days after her visit to the Wimbledon grounds, where she once etched her name in tennis history.

"My heart is full," she wrote in the caption.

On that wall, the Russian pointed to her name beside the 2004 women's singles title. Almost two decades ago, Sharapova defeated Serena Williams 6-1, 6-4 in straight sets to claim the honor. This was her first Grand Slam in her career, following which she added four more Grand Slams, including the 2008 Australian Open, 2012 and 2014 French Open and 2006 US Open.

Today, Sharapova is a devoted mother and entrepreneurial figure. She founded candy brand “Sugarpova” and has been in the forefront of women's empowerment and has ties with the board of fashion giant Moncler. In June, during an interaction with People, Sharapova drew learning from her legendary tennis career to motherhood.

"I think in some ways there were so many elements of my sport that I could I apply into motherhood," she said.

"Just the discipline of the schedules and routines and seeing the benefit of that through their behavior and through their eyes has also been really helpful. When I was playing, knowing where I was going to be and when I was going to nap and when I was going to eat helped me so much with my energy."

Her partner, Alexander Gilkes, co-founded the online art auction house Paddle8 and later headed Squared Circles.
