Gael Monfils recently shared a deeply emotional message on Instagram, celebrating his fourth wedding anniversary with Elina Svitolina and their daughter Skaï. In the post, Monfils expressed how much his family means to him, writing that seeing his wife and daughter together is his greatest victory. The heartfelt caption accompanied a cozy family photo, offering fans a rare glimpse into the personal life of the tennis star.
Building a Life Together
Monfils and Svitolina began their relationship in 2018 and made it public in early 2019. They got engaged in April 2021 and were married just a few months later in Geneva. Their daughter was born in October 2022, and since then, the couple has balanced professional tennis with parenting. While they often share career updates, they’ve kept most of their family life private, making this anniversary post especially meaningful.
Support Beyond the Court
The couple’s bond extends beyond their personal life into their professional careers. Monfils credited Svitolina with helping him through a difficult period during the COVID-19 pandemic, when he considered retiring from tennis. Her encouragement and example as a mother returning to competition inspired him to keep going. Their shared passion for the sport and mutual support have strengthened their relationship both on and off the court.
A New Chapter of Joy
As they continue competing at the highest level, Monfils and Svitolina are embracing the joys of parenthood. Their daughter has brought a new dimension to their lives, and their recent posts reflect a sense of fulfillment and happiness. The anniversary message was a celebration of love, resilience, and the quiet moments that matter most.
