According to the reports, Novak Djokovic and his wife Jelena quarrel over the restriction on their two kids’ use of cell phones. After getting married in 2014, the high school sweethearts welcomed Tara, then seven years old, and Stefan, who is currently nine years old.

After losing in the third round of the US Open, Djokovic joined Team Serbia for the Davis Cup. On Saturday, Jelena and Tara watched the 37-year-old defeat Ioannis Xilas in just 45 minutes while only giving up one match.

Djokovic was allowed to discuss a particular aspect of his family life just before that match. He talked about it and said: “My children still don’t have a cell phone, my wife and I argue (about it). The kids complain, ‘At school, everyone has one except us’. It’s not easy and this is reflected on other levels as well. If everyone does something, the herd behaves like this, you have to follow them. Well, it doesn’t have to be like that. This is where I think we differ from others because we are stubborn and active.”

Djokovic has previously stated that he approaches parenting in a more conventional manner. He emphasized the value of keeping them engaged throughout the Wimbledon Championships this year.
