Boris Becker 'proud' of sexual liaison with model in 1999

London: Former world No. 1 professional tennis player, Boris Becker, has revealed that he is "proud" of his sex romp with Russian model in 1999 at a London restaurant Nobu.

The 47-year-old said that he was happy, if the brief encounter was one of the things he's best remembered for, the Mirror has reported.

In 1999, after crashing out of Wimbledon, Becker left his pregnant wife Barbara Feltus at his hotel and had sex with model Angela Ermakova, resulting in the birth of his now 15-year-old daughter, Anna.

The liaison, which Becker denied took place in a broom cupboard and said occurred on stairs at the Mayfair restaurant, ended his first marriage and led to a costly divorce.
