Former tennis star Chris Evert was seen enjoying a Parisian evening as she caught up with her son Alex over dinner during the 2025 French Open.

Alexander 'Alex' Mill is the eldest son of the former World No. 1 from her second marriage to American alpine ski racer Andy Mill. They tied the knot in 1988 but mutually split in 2006. Currently, their son is a fitness coach who takes a special interest in CrossFit training.

Evert, on the other hand, dominated the tennis world during her prime and won a staggering 18 Grand Slam singles titles. She had been on top of the women's singles for 260 weeks, ending years 1974-1978, 1980 and 1981 as the World No. 1.

In an interview earlier this year with We Are Tennis, she said:

"The best thing about being Chris Evert are my boys and being a mother, that's the first thing that came to my mind...Yeah, I love my boys. I love my boys. Yeah, that's been the highlight of my life, yeah."

She also added how her new role as a grandmother to Hayden, son of Nicholas, has been double the enjoyment.

"I thought nothing can top having a child. But having a grandchild is double the fun, because you're also seeing your son being a father. Your child has become a father. Then I have this little grandson. It's wonderful. I will be, for sure, a fun grandmother. I will right around as long as I can," she said.

At the French Open, the 70-year-old Evert holds the all-time record for the most women's singles titles with seven.
