Former World No. 1 Ana Ivanovic recently shared a glimpse of how the holiday season is going for her, her husband, and their three children.

Christmas is only a few days away, with everyone preparing for the festivities. On Saturday, the 2008 French Open champion and her husband, Bastian Schweinsteiger, posted photos on their social media accounts showing how they are spending the holiday season.

Schweinsteiger's post featured his and Ana Ivanovic's hands, along with the hands of their three children, mixing and molding dough on a wooden baking tray.

“Welcome to the Christmas bakery,” Swienstieger said in the caption of the image.

Ana Ivanovic humorously commented on the post, alleging that Schweinsteiger photoshopped his hand into the image.

“Why did you photoshop your hand in,” Ivanovic said.

On Ana Ivanovic's Instagram account, there was a post about their "Christmas bakery" on Saturday. She wrote that it was the last bit of Christmas baking and that she was already feeling the Christmas magic. Ivanovic was seen holding a wooden baking tray with bread neatly arranged on it.

“Some last Christmas baking - already feeling the Christmas magic,” she said.

Ivanovic married former Manchester United and Bayern Munich midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger in July 2016. The couple has three sons: Luca (born in 2018), Leon (born in 2019), and a third son born in May 2023.

Ana Ivanovic had a successful career. She turned pro in 2003 and retired in December 2016, and was able to clinch 15 titles along the way - including the 2008 French Open.

In the first round of the 2008 French Open, Ivanovic defeated Sweden's Sofia Arvidsson. She went on to defeat Lucie Šafářová, Caroline Wozniacki and Petra Cetkovská in the second, third, and fourth rounds respectively, all in straight sets.

Ivanovic competed against Swedish tennis player Patty Schnyder in the quarterfinal. The match ended 6-3, 6-2 in favor of the Serb.

In the semifinal, it was compatriot Jelena Janković who was Ana Ivanovic's opponent. This was the only match in which Ivanovic dropped a set. She defeated Jankovic 6-4, 3-6, 6-4 to set up an encounter with Dinara Safina in the final.

In the final, Ivanovic defeated Dinara Safina 6-4, 6-3 to clinch her first and only Grand Slam title.

In that same year, she also reached the final of the Australian Open. En route to the final, she defeated Sorana Cîrstea, Tathiana Garbin, Katarina Srebotnik, Caroline Wozniacki, Venus Williams, and Daniela Hantuchová. In the final, she lost to Russian tennis icon Maria Sharapova.
