His story seems to have changed for the worse after he had to pay off his former wife, Barbara; and his baby mama model, Angela Ermakova, in 2001.

He was also ordered to pay £2.5m for tax evasion the following year.

Becker was once estimated to be worth upwards of £100m, but he declared bankruptcy over undisclosed sums owed to London-based private bankers, Arbuthnot Latham & Co, since 2015.
