There was a lot of talk when I was younger. I was always very concerned about how my career would be affected, the things people were saying, and things of that nature.” said Fritz in the interview.

Fritz’s candid revelation resonates with the transformative power of parenthood, molding him into a multi-faceted individual capable of managing his aspirations, responsibilities, and personal growth. However, Taylor Fritz parted ways with his wife 2 years after giving birth to his son.
