Disgraced Boris Becker’s estranged wife hits back after Mother’s Day newspaper dig at her

DISGRACED tennis star Boris Becker’s estranged wife has hit back at his Mother’s Day newspaper attack on her.

The three times Wimbledon champ had a dig at estranged Sharlely “Lilly” Becker, 46, in a weekend article about the couple’s split and their son Amadeus, 13.

Boris praised first wife Barbara, 56 — mum to his son Noah, 29 — saying: “It takes intelligent parents to find a way.”

But he said of Sharlely: “I hope we are able to reach the same point, but we are not there yet.”

Furious Sharlely told Germany’s Bild newspaper: “Boris seems to think he is more intelligent than everyone.

“So I look forward to him soon fulfilling his obligations to his son.”

Becker, 55, was jailed last April for hiding £2.5million assets during his bankruptcy.

He was first sent to South London’s HMP Wandsworth.

Becker was later moved to Huntercombe Prison in Nuffield, Oxfordshire, a jail for foreign nationals.

He was released in December.

Boris is now back in Germany.
