Boris Becker's ex-wife Lilly reveals she has split from her boyfriend and moved back to London - just one year after quitting Britain because she could no longer afford to live here

Boris Becker's ex-wife Lilly Becker has revealed she has split from her boyfriend of four years and moved back to London - just one year after quitting Britain because she could no longer afford to live here.

The Dutch model, 50, has ended her relationship with German sports manager Thorsten Weck, 57, and returned to South West London with her 16-year-old son Amadeus, whom she shares with the former tennis champion, 58.

And Lilly has declared she is now 'done' with men, insisting she loves being single and no longer having to share a bed with someone who snores.

Speaking exclusively to the Daily Mail at the Peruvian Connection fashion show in London on Wednesday, Lilly confirmed her single status and said she's no longer looking for love.

'I'm done. If it happens, it happens. But I have no luck with British men, so I don't think it's going to happen,' she said.

Lilly added she won't use dating apps because she prefers to meet prospective partners in real life, explaining: 'I keep it old school.'

The glamorous brunette, who starred on the cover of Playboy in Germany last year, admits, however, that male suitors aren't always very forthcoming.

She said: 'They don't approach me. But I'm not looking. Nobody's in my bed, nobody snores. I like it.'

Lilly had been in a relationship with Thorsten - dubbed a Boris Becker lookalike owing to his distinctive square jawline and strawberry blonde hair - since 2022.

While there has been recent speculation in the Germany press that the couple had split, she has not publicly confirmed the end of the relationship herself until now.

Lilly, who won I'm A Celeb! in Germany last year, moved to Dusseldorf with Amadeus last summer, having admitted she found the UK's capital too expensive.

'I just can't really afford to live in London by myself as a single mum,' she said at the time. 'It's extremely hard and I'll still like to live on a level that I'm used to, and my son is used to. I want to keep that and, at the moment, the opportunities are in Germany.'

Thorsten also lived in the German city, although Lilly insisted at the time that they were not living together.

But she has now abandoned her new life there and returned to Wimbledon, where she lived for years following her son's birth. And despite the cost of living in the capital, Lilly insisted she had no intention of ever leaving again.

She said: 'You can't beat London. It's expensive, but look what we have. We have Hyde Park, the Premier League, we've got Winter Wonderland, there's always a band in Camden, there's Ronnie Scott's.

'I will never ever complain about London again as long as I live. I'll die here. That's it. I'm done.'

In May it was revealed that Lilly and Boris were locked in a court battle over claims c he owes her hundreds of thousands of pounds in unpaid child support.

The former Wimbledon champion, 58, and his ex-wife Lilly, 49, had their son Amadeus Benedict Edley Luis Becker in 2010.

They split eight years later, and a court order was issued in London demanding that Boris pay £8,000 a month in child support.   

Boris had previously covered the cost of his son’s schooling in London. However, Lilly’s lawyers claimed earlier this year that he failed to make core maintenance payments, racking up a six-figure debt.

The payments, she says, stopped in 2022, after Boris served eight months in prison over bankruptcy offences.

He had hidden £2.5million in assets to avoid paying debts and was sentenced to two and a half years, but was released early under a fast-track deportation scheme.

Boris later claimed that he longer had any debts, which Lilly branded ‘a slap in the face’. She added: ‘It hurts me when a father doesn’t take care of his son.’

He resumed his payments to her in 2025, including a five-figure sum in July that year. However, they are locked in a dispute over how much is still owed.

While Lilly is embracing single life, Boris has since remarried and welcomed another child.

He tied the knot with political risk analyst Lilian de Carvalho Monteiro, 36, in 2024 and the couple welcomed their daughter, Zoe, last November.

Lilly said she is now enjoying a new chapter of her life after turning 50 and going through menopause.

'I'm not old. I am a mature young woman,' she insisted. 'The 50s are not what they used to be. We're not grannies. It's like a revamp, right? Look at Jennifer Lopez! It's like we're extending life, and I feel so good.

'I'm one year after my menopause, my kid is a teenager, life has changed, but you don't die on the inside.'

She added: 'My spirit is very much alive, and I don't want to compete with the 20-, 30-year-olds at all. I'm living my life.'

Lilly, who walked in Wednesday's fashion show at St John's Church, West London, said she would happily continue modelling and revealed that her dream brand to work for was Alaïa.

When it comes to her approach to ageing, she admitted she regularly has cosmetic treatments, but insisted she would never undergo a facelift.

'Of course, I will forever do a little bit of tweaking,' she said. 'I will look after myself with lasers, I'm not ashamed to say I love a little bit of Botox.

'But I will not get a facelift because I really would like to grow old and have a story on my face. And I'm curious about what I will look like.'

She added: 'I want my grey hairs. I want the wrinkles. I will definitely let go after 55, but for now, please.'

Lilly is launching a new business called Her Next Move, which she described as focusing on networking, lifestyle and travel.

'I just started. I came back here and my British friends were like, you need to do this,' she said.

Reflecting on how much her life has changed since her son was young, Lilly added: 'I've struggled enough. I've been the young mum, I've had the toddler, I've done the school gates. Now I'm doing me.'
