We all know Martina Navratilova is one of the most well-known and renowned tennis players in the world, and has an enormous following both on and off the tennis court. However, fans have the power to both make you famous and embarrass you at the same time. Similarly, a fan once humiliated the tennis great in a humorous incident recounted by her wife, Julia Lemigova.

Martina Navratilova’s wife shares an embarrassing anecdote 

The wife of the 59-time Grand Slam champion recently spoke in-depth about her life in an interview with Up and Adam. Furthermore, she mentioned a time when her tennis legend wife felt humiliated in front of a fan during that talk. But it eventually turned out to be a fun, dynamic moment that they will never forget.

Lemigova recalled a day when they went to a hotel, and all of a sudden a fan appeared. This admirer was so enamored with Julia that he didn’t even glance at the Czech-American star.

She said, “The other day you know, we were in a restaurant. Somebody comes to us. I immediately think they’re gonna like ask for her autograph or they’re gonna ask something you know about tennis to Martina. They told me, Julia, we love you on the show. I had my dog with me, and I’m like, Oh my God, and we love your animals, and Martina’s just laughing. This person did not look at Martina at all.”

Not only that, even the Russian model was shocked for a moment, as the fan didn’t really recognize her wife but was quite a huge fan of her show. However, even the 59-time Grand Slam Champion’s wife once embarrassed the tennis legend during their dating time, when they visited Paris together.

When Lemigova embarrassed Martina Navratilova in Paris
