In a recent interview, British tennis player Andy Murray revealed that he has serious beef with barbers and went on to say that his wife Kim Sears has become his permanent hairdresser for the same reason. A particular 75-minute ordeal with a hairdresser was what forced him to take up his wife to look after his hair when needed.
“Usually it’s my wife that cuts my hair. I hate going to the hairdressers, get no enjoyment out of it at all and I find it a massive hassle. But my wife is often nagging me to go to the hairdressers and I just tell her if she wants me to get it cut, then she can cut it,” Andy Murray said. (H/T: Express.Co.UK)
The three-time Grand Slam winner revealed that he once had to wait 75 minutes for a hairdresser to get his hair done, and after that, he permanently delegated that job to his wife, Kim Sears. He said that he never liked going to hairdressers to begin with. Once, his wife brought a hairdresser to their house and convinced him to get his hair done. It took, like, an hour and 15 minutes, and according to Murray, the job should not take more than 20 minutes. Since then, Kim has started doing it herself.
Andy Murray’s form in major tournaments has not been so good lately. He recently got eliminated from the very second round of the 2023 US Open after his defeat to Grigor Dimitrov. He is currently playing in the Zhuhai Championships. He won the first round and will take on Asian Karatsev in the round of 16 of the tournament.
Andy Murray’s relationship with Kim Sears
Andy Murray and his wife Kim Sears started dating way back in 2005, when he was eighteen and Kim was just seventeen. Thus, the couple has been together for a really long time. They tied the knot in 2015, exactly a year after they started dating, and have now been together for over 18 years.
Kim Sears is the daughter of tennis coach Nigel Sears and is a full-time painter. She completed her education in art at the University of Sussex. The couple has four children together: Sophia, Edie, Teddy, and little Lola, who was born just recently in 2021. Kim has always been one of the biggest supporters of Andy Murray, and she has stuck by his side through thick and thin. It is really rare to see such a couple at today’s age.
