Before they tied the knot, Herbert said of their relationship: "She has taken on greater responsibilities, but she is my girlfriend, my travel buddy, helping with my career and brightening up my days.

"She has a big smile and she helps me a lot.

"Travelling with and playing the guitar, singing, and like a lot of players, selecting my fantasy football team, takes up a lot of my time and makes me crazy too!

"But it’s also helpful to compartmentalise my life.”

And in 2017 Lang told l'Equipe about their busy schedule: "I do not see it as a sacrifice, but my entourage points out to me, I never see my parents, rarely my friends.

"What's good is that I made a big decision, there are only important and caring people around me.

"I do not have a typical student life."

Her husband has a career world ranking high of No36.

He achieved this in 2019.

Despite never winning a Grand Slam as a singles player, the doubles specialist has won all four events across the years.

They announced the arrival of their first child, a baby boy called Harper, via Instagram in 2020.

In 2023, Herbert announced once again that they were now a family of four and they had another child.

He said: "Happy to announce the birth of our second child Léandre.

"We are now officially a family of 4 thanks to our amazing mummy."

More recently he shared that his youngest child had been diagnosed with congenital hyperinsunilism which is a rare genetic disease.

This is when the insulin cells of the pancreas called beta cells secrete too much insulin.

The dad-of-two told followers that Léandre underwent pancreatic surgery in early April 2024 that lasted 10 hours before thanking everyone for their support.
