Andy Murray recently recounted a hilarious incident from almost two decades ago where he bought a Ferrari after briefly splitting up with his then-girlfriend, Kim Sears, and immediately ran into trouble.

Sears, a popular artist, and Murray, who won Wimbledon twice in his illustrious career, got married in 2015 after ten years of dating. However, the dating life wasn’t short of ups and downs. The couple split up in 2008 before rekindling their romance with a proposal where Murray went down on his knees and offered Kim the ring in 2014. The pair ultimately rang the wedding bells a year later.

It was during their brief separation that, Murray revealed, he bought a Ferrari to ease through the difficult time, but fell into a tangle. He was pulled over by the police due to an insurance issue.

“I bought a Ferrari. I called it Barry the Ferrari,” Murray said on a live show, according to a report by The Telegraph. “I thought it was cool, but it didn’t last very long. The first day I took it out to drive, it got pulled over by the police because the insurance hadn’t cleared. I got rid of it over a couple of months because it wasn’t me.”

Murray had Kim by her side throughout his great career, with the British artist standing in support of him from the stands in several of his memorable face-offs on the tennis court.

The couple has four kids from their ten-year marriage — two daughters, Sophia and Edie, and two sons, Teddy and Lola. During a recent interaction, Murray shared another funny anecdote of how Kim responded to a query about their four-year-old daughter, Lola, when he messaged her.

“At one of the shows we did a few nights ago, I messaged her during the half-time interval, asking, ‘Is everyone OK?’ She replied, ‘It has been a f***ing shambles. Lola’s being a t**t. Hope the show’s going better than this,” Murray said. Present at the event, Kim stayed true to her outspoken self and said her husband “is playing so much f***ing golf” since retiring from tennis last year.
