Victoria Azarenka recently shared a relatable parenting moment with her followers, revealing that her seven-year-old son, Leo, refused to hug her in front of his ice hockey teammates at a tournament. Azarenka, who has been spending quality time with Leo during the offseason, posted about the incident on X, humorously asking if other parents could relate to their children’s tendency to act embarrassed in front of their friends.
Leo, who plays for the Florida Kings ice hockey team, was also seen enjoying a game of chess during a break in the tournament, as shown in Azarenka’s Instagram stories. Despite being a public figure, Azarenka has always kept her motherhood front and center, sharing both the joys and challenges of being a parent. She has previously talked about how Leo, while supportive, isn’t particularly impressed with her tennis career and often prioritizes his own interests, like football.
Azarenka’s openness about her parenting experiences continues to resonate with her fans, who appreciate her candidness about the ups and downs of motherhood alongside her tennis journey.
