Three years ago, Fognini and Pennetta welcomed their first child, Federico. Recently, the couple welcomed another child and are more than happy to grow their family. After the recent ankle operation, the Italian spends time at home recovering and with his wife and children. In the interview, he said:

“It’s really nice. It’s the most beautiful thing that could happen in my life at the moment,” Fognini said. “It is the best dream probably for people when they get married. I think I’m unlucky and lucky, because of course when I’m home I enjoy [being with my family] as best I can. But when I’m away, I’m lucky, because Flavia told me that the first one started to be unstoppable, running everywhere,” Fognini said, cracking a laugh. “[He] started talking, he started to be jealous with the second one. It’s a tough [situation].”

“I’m lucky because my wife was playing tennis, so she understands every situation that can happen during the tournament when you travel. We are happy. We are really happy. I’m in the best period of my career. I won many matches and I try to keep pushing myself every week as much as I can,” Fognini said. “I stay competitive with the best guys on Tour, so until I don’t have the energy to practice and to wake up with a different goal, I’m going to push myself.”
