American tennis player Sloane Stephens recently shared a heartfelt video of herself and her husband, Jozy Altidore, dancing to a medley of romantic songs. Altidore, 34, is an American soccer player, who plays as a striker for the Major League Soccer club New England Revolution.
Stephens turned professional in 2009 and has won eight WTA titles. Her career-defining moment came in 2017, when she won her first Grand Slam at the US Open, defeating Madison Keys in the final. She nearly added another Major title at the 2018 French Open but lost to Simona Halep in the final.
Sloane Stephens married Jozy Altidore on January 1, 2022, at the St. Regis Bal Harbour in Miami Beach, Florida. She also became the stepmother to Altidore’s son, Cameron. The couple often share glimpses of their life on social media. Recently, the former World No. 3 posted a video on X ( formerly Twitter), where she and Altidore were seen grooving to a medley of romantic numbers

In an episode of “Cinema Sessions” during her Australian Open campaign earlier this year, Sloane Stephens said that she plans to retire from tennis upon winning her second Grand Slam title.
“There’s more, I feel like there’s more. But let me tell you this, if I win a Grand Slam, I’m never playing tennis again. That would be the last, I’ll be like: ‘I’ll see you guys never, I’m out,” Stephens said. (at 1:50)
Stephens’ coach, Kamau Murray, later humorously remarked that he would also request his bonus check and retire the following day.
“If you win a Grand Slam, I’m going to ask for my bonus check and I’m going to quit the next day too. Because my kids and my wife, they miss me. So, as soon as you win again, cut the check and let me go about my business,” Murray said.
