Boris, 40, popped the question to beautiful Alessandra 'Sandy' Meyer-Wolden, 24, the daughter of his late manager Axel Meyer-Wolden, at the weekend.
The tennis ace popped the question to his 24-year-old girlfriend at the weekend during a holiday on the Italian island of Sardinia
He proposed to her on the island of Sardinia, Sandy said last night in Germany.
'I didn’t know anything about it, I was totally surprised,' she said.
Boris presented her with a ring with two diamonds.
'One represents Boris and one represents me,' said Sandy, who is a jewellery designer.

The two have been rumoured to be a pair since early this month after paparazzi caught them on the Spanish island of Formentera and later on Sardinia.
They first met when her father, Axel, was Becker’s manager. He died in 1997.
The engaged are now flying to New York to plan their nuptials but they have yet to release additional details.
'Our relationship is completely serious,' she said.
The tennis star married Barbara Feltus in 1993 and the couple had two sons, Noah Gabriel, 14, and Elias Balthasar, 8, before the marriage ended acrimoniously in 2001.
Becker's divorce from Barbara reportedly cost him £10 million. He gave her their £1.8 million apartment on Florida's Fisher Island, several hundred thousand pounds worth of jewels and pays £4,000 a month in maintenance for his sons.
In 2000, he was forced to confess to fathering a daughter with Angela Ermakova after having sex in a broom closet with her in a London hotel.
He has also dated German rapper Sabrina Setlur and dancer Caroline Rocher.
'I can’t ask every woman I fall in love with to marry me after six months.
'Rather than cause disappointments I think it's important to be above-board,' Becker said during an interview in 2006
