Surely Andy’s not going to be a dad so soon?

-

IT was Scotland’s wedding of the year when Andy Murray married Kim Sears last month.

So fans of the tennis star were surprised to see he was set to become a dad.

Their astonishme­nt grew when they learned he was apparently about to father a child with Brooklyn Decker – the wife of fellow tennis ace Andy Roddick - and not Kim, pictured.

The scandal rapidly abated, however, when it emerged Murray had been named on a news website by accident – and the prospectiv­e father was Roddick himself.

Murray saw the funny side, tweeting: ‘Not sure my wife and @andyroddic­k will be best pleased to find these out via Twitter! #error.’ But he added: ‘Congrats to the real parents @andyroddic­k and @BrooklynDe­cker.’

Miss Decker’s spokesman said: ‘I’m happy to confirm Brooklyn and Andy are expecting a new addition to their family in the autumn.’

The model and actress, who stars in upcoming Netflix show Grace and Frankie, announced her pregnancy on Instagram. She posted a picture with the caption: ‘So this happened… #the3ofus.’

The pair have been married for six years and the actress made no secret of her desire to start a family. ‘I love kids, I definitely want kids,’ she said last year. ‘I just have to figure out the timing of that.’

Murray is due to finish the Munich Open Final against Philipp Kohlschrei­ber today, the match having been rained off yesterday with the German 3-2 ahead in the first set.
