Tennis star Sloane Stephens and her husband, Jozy Altidore, have decided to end their four-year marriage. Stephens, 32, made the announcement on her Instagram Stories on February 21, asking for privacy and mutual respect during this transition.

Stephens and Altidore first met in 2016 after attending the same school in Florida. They got engaged in 2019 and tied the knot on New Year's Day in 2022 at the St. Regis in Bal Harbour, Florida.

Altidore, 36, has not publicly commented on their breakup. Stephens has received criticism online urging her to retire from tennis, but she has stated in an interview that she does not let social media criticism affect her.

Altidore shared how they first connected during a chance meeting in Hawaii and how their relationship blossomed from there. Their marriage had an impact on Altidore's athletic career, prompting him to rethink his future plans.

Altidore, who retired in 2023, discussed the influence of his marriage on his life, acknowledging the positive impact Stephens had both on and off the field. He emphasized the importance of family in his decision-making process moving forward.
