Sloane Stephens, the former US Open champion, and Jozy Altidore, a notable figure in U.S. soccer, have decided to end their marriage after four years together. The announcement came on February 21, 2026, when Stephens took to Instagram to share the news with her followers.
In her post, the 32-year-old tennis star expressed her sentiments regarding the separation, stating, “Jozy and I have decided to end our marriage. With peace, I am navigating this transition with mutual respect and kindly ask for privacy during this time. Thank you for your love, understanding and continued support.”
Stephens is well-remembered for her spectacular triumph at the 2017 US Open, where she claimed her first Grand Slam title. She also made headlines during the 2018 French Open, finishing as the runner-up. Throughout her career, Stephens has distinguished herself as one of the elite players in women’s tennis.
Altidore, now 36, enjoyed a remarkable career in soccer, marked by his impressive scoring record. The former U.S. national team striker notched 42 goals in 115 appearances between 2007 and 2019. His professional journey included significant stints in Major League Soccer and international clubs overseas.
As both individuals embark on this new chapter, they have requested respect for their privacy during this transitional period.
