Boris Becker's girlfriend and son cheer on Novak Djokovic at Wimbledon

Boris Becker's girlfriend Lillian de Carvalho Monteiro and his eldest son Noah cheered on Novak Djokovic at Wimbledon today in their first appearance together since the former world number 1 was jailed.

Carvalho Monteiro, who is in her 40s, appeared alongside her partner's 28-year-old son as the pair sat in Djokovic's box on Centre Court on the first day of this year's tournament.

The political risk analyst, who speaks five languages and has three university degrees, stood by her partner's side as he was jailed for two-and-a-half years in April.

Becker, 54, was found guilty of hiding £2.5million worth of assets and loans to avoid paying off debts after he was declared bankrupt in 2017.

During his trial at Southwark Crown Court, Lilian, who is thought to have been dating Becker for around three years, supported her partner alongside his son Noah.

Lillian, who was born in the African island state of São Tomé and Príncipe, reportedly blew her beau a goodbye kiss as he was led out of the courtroom following his sentencing.

Since Becker's sentencing his girlfriend has been seen visiting him at HMP Wandsworth, where he is being held.

In early May, shortly after he began his stint, Carvalho Monteiro was seen stepping out of a car outside the prison wearing a denim jacket, a white T shirt and black jeans.

Appearing with Noah, whose mother is Barbara Becker, today for the first time since they supported Becker at the trial, she wore a white vest and sunglasses, with her hair pulled into a relaxed ponytail.

Noah sat next to her in sunglasses, a blue shirt and a tweed jacket as they cheered on Novak Djokovic who defeated Korean player Kwon Soon-woo in straight sets.

The Serbian player was trained by Boris Becker for three years
