Boris Becker ’s girlfriend Lilian de Carvalho Monteiro paid her first visit to see the disgraced tennis star after he was jailed last week. Becker was found guilty of four charges under the Insolvency Act, after being declared bankrupt back in 2017.
Following his sentencing, the former world No.1 was sent to Wandsworth prison, just two miles away from the Wimbledon Centre Court, where he won three of his six Grand Slam singles titles. The facility is one of the most notorious in the UK, and is known for its overcrowding, drug abuse and violence.
One week on from his arrival at Wandsworth, Becker was visited by his partner for the first time since his sentencing.
