Jelena Djokovic, the wife of tennis legend Novak Djokovic, has candidly spoken about her fears and challenges as a parent to their two children, Stefan and Tara. In a recent interview, she revealed her concerns about balancing her role as a mother while navigating the complexities of raising children in the public eye.

As Novak’s career continues to soar, Jelena has taken on the pivotal responsibility of ensuring that their children grow up in a loving and grounded environment. However, she admits that parenting comes with its share of anxieties. One of her primary concerns is the potential impact of external pressures, particularly from the public and media, on her parenting approach.

“I do my best not to let them [external pressures] control my behavior towards the children,” Jelena shared. She explained that as a public figure and the wife of a world-renowned athlete, it’s easy to feel scrutinized. “There’s always this underlying pressure, and sometimes you worry if you’re doing enough or doing it right. But I try to stay true to myself and focus on what’s best for Stefan and Tara.”

Jelena also discussed the challenges of shielding their children from the intense spotlight that surrounds Novak’s career. While the family has done their best to maintain a degree of privacy, their lives are inevitably intertwined with the public’s fascination with Novak’s success. Despite this, Jelena remains committed to providing their children with as normal an upbringing as possible.

“Novak and I work together to ensure that Stefan and Tara are raised with strong values. We want them to understand that love, kindness, and respect for others are what matter most,” she added.

The couple, who married in 2014, have frequently spoken about the importance of family and staying grounded despite Novak’s busy career. Jelena’s candid insights reflect the reality faced by many parents, even those in the public eye, who are doing their best to balance love, discipline, and the influence of external factors on their children.

As Jelena continues to support Novak’s remarkable journey on the tennis court, she remains dedicated to raising their children with a focus on compassion and integrity—values that she hopes will guide Stefan and Tara as they grow.
