Boris Becker sprang a surprise on a German television quiz show, proposing to former girlfriend and Dutch model Lilly Kerssenberg, with plans for a June wedding in the Swiss VIP resort of St Moritz.
Becker's latest serve occurred in front of an audience of nearly 10 million, with Hollywood star Jennifer Anniston also seated on the guest sofa. Both Becker and his 32-year-old one-time girlfriend appeared on the program.
Becker, 41, a three-time Wimbledon champion, has had and interesting personal life, having split only late last year with Sandy Meyer-Woelden, daughter of his late manager.
Becker told the audience: "Last summer I went a bit off track but she, Lilly, took me back. Now I don't want to let her go".
The German gossip press is already having a field day with the announcement as Becker returns to the woman who bears more than a passing resemblance to ex-wife Barbara Feltus, mother of his two sons.
