In the summer of 2025, Schweinsteiger's shocking extramarital affair became common knowledge. What was even more shocking was that the German was having the affair in close proximity to his and Ivanovic's lavish home in Mallorca. Even though both the Serb and the German tried to keep a lid on their situation, it became evident that their once-happy romantic relationship had completely broken down.

Recently, German newspaper Bild have reported that former WTA No. 1 Ana Ivanovic, following months of rumors and speculation, has finally decided to file for a divorce from Bastian Schweinsteiger. The now-separated couple have three sons; Luka (born in 2018), Leon (born in 2019) and Theo (born in 2023).

Ana Ivanovic herself hasn't broken her silence on the clearly chaotic situation surrounding her marriage to Bastian Schweinsteiger. However, the Serb's representative Christian Schertz made an announcement regarding her separation from the German in July, stating that there were 'irreconcilable differences' between the pair.

Meanwhile, Ivanovic has shared the occasional social media post since the news of her broken-down marriage made it to the public domain. For instance, in August, she took to Instagram to share a few pictures from a beach getaway during which she enjoyed her time soaking in the sun, building sandcastles and taking naps to reset her batteries.
