“My first husband, you know, it’s like, people say you marry your father or whatever that thing is," said Shields. "I married a very controlling person.

"I married an industry. I married a conglomerate, you know. I could disappear in it, and I loved it. And I needed it. Andre and I laughed a lot too, which was great."

Following their split, Agassi would begin dating and eventually marry WTA legend Steffi Graf in 2001. The duo are still together, and have two children.
