Boris Becker Launches Prison Memoir in Berlin as Ex‑Wife Disputes His Account and Pursues €356,000 Support Claim

The release has shifted focus to a public challenge from ex‑wife Lilly alongside a claim for unpaid support.

Overview

  • Becker presented Inside at Berlin’s Delphi Filmpalast with wife Lilian de Carvalho Monteiro, who is pregnant and due in December, plus son Noah and other relatives.
  • The memoir, co‑written with Tom Fordyce, recounts 231 days in the UK prisons Wandsworth and Huntercombe and describes fear, harsh routines and personal change.
  • Lilly Becker’s lawyer denies she blocked calls between Becker and their son Amadeus during his 2022 incarceration, arguing prison rules required Becker to initiate calls.
  • Her attorney has formally demanded €355,991.28 in unpaid child support for April 2022 through September 2025, with a notice sent in late August and a payment deadline set for the end of September.
  • Becker’s lawyer rejects a public feud, calling Lilly’s statements false or incomplete, while Lilly’s Playboy cover published the same day as the book release drew added attention she says was unplanned.
