Every star has somebody watching their back, keeping them humble and picking them up when they're down.
In the case of recent Australian Open winner and all around G.O.A.T, Roger Federer, that somebody is his wife, Mirka.
Following his astounding, narrow win against Rafael Nadal, the humble Swiss took the opportunity to heap praise on his "number one supporter" during a press huddle. And WOW, you guys.
"She's been there when I had no titles and she's still here 89 titles later, so she had a big part to play in [the win]" he told the camera crews.
"She knows it, I know it, everybody knows it. She's a mum number one and a wife, and only then later does she become the supporter..."
"She stepped away from it a little bit after becoming super involved. I guess that was 2003, 2004 when she was right in the centre of the storm really. I didn't enjoy that role for her really because she had to say no too many times. She got a bad rap for it."
Federer laughed. "You have to say 90 percent of the time 'No he can't do the interview now, because he has no time.' Some [members of the media] don't like to get that answer. So I thought it was better to remove her from that position and she was happy to."
"And that's why I'm just happy she's my wife now ... She's the one who always tells me the truth and everything, so we go very well together."
Well, if that ain't the sweetest thing.
