After Becker lost to Peter Doohan in the second round of the 1987 Wimbledon Championships, it was rumoured that he had been too distracted by his girlfriend, Benedicte Courtin, the daughter of the Chief of Police of Monaco.
As a result, the British tabloids dubbed him "Bonking Boris".

On 17 December 1993, Becker married model Barbara Feltus, then eight months pregnant, at the registry office of his hometown of Leimen.
On 18 January 1994, their son Noah Gabriel, named after Becker's friends Yannick Noah and Peter Gabriel, was born.
Their second child, Elias Balthasar, was born on 4 September 1999.
Before the marriage, they shocked some in Germany by posing nude for the cover of Stern in a picture taken by her father.

After Becker asked Barbara for a separation in December 2000, she flew to Miami, Florida, with Noah and Elias and filed a divorce petition in Miami-Dade County Court, sidestepping their prenuptial agreement which had entitled her to a single $2.5 million payoff.
Barbara left for Florida after being contacted by a woman claiming to be pregnant with Becker's child.
In his autobiography, Becker stated that he admitted to his wife that he had a one-night stand with another woman while Barbara was pregnant with their second child.
He wrote that Barbara struck him during an argument that occurred after he flew to Florida to meet with her and discuss the break up of their marriage.
The pretrial hearing in January 2001 was broadcast live to Germany.
When Becker testified, Barbara's lawyers, for whom he was paying, made him out to be a cad.
Incredibly, the couple had dinner every night during the hearing.
Becker was granted a divorce on 15 January 2001: Barbara received a $14.4 million settlement, their condominium on exclusive Fisher Island, Florida, and custody of their children.

In February 2001, Becker acknowledged paternity of a daughter, Anna, with Russian waitress Angela Ermakova, after media reported that he had a child as a result of a sexual encounter in 1999.
The episode allegedly took place at London's Nobu restaurant.
He had allegedly been drinking following his loss to Pat Rafter in the fourth round of the 1999 Wimbledon Championships.
Becker initially denied paternity, claiming he only had oral sex with Ermakova.
Subsequently, he reversed his stance and accepted fatherhood.
Some time after that, a DNA test confirmed he was the father.
In November 2007, he obtained joint custody of Anna after expressing concerns over how Ermakova was raising her.

Becker was briefly engaged to Alessandra Meyer-Wölden in 2008.
Her father, Axel Meyer-Wölden, was Becker's former adviser and manager.
The couple broke up in November 2008.

In February 2009, on the German ZDF TV show Wetten, dass..?,
Becker announced that he and Dutch model Sharlely "Lilly" Kerssenberg were to be married on 12 June 2009 in St Moritz, Switzerland.
In August they announced that they were expecting a child.
Their son, Amadeus Benedict Edley Luis Becker, was born in London on 10 February 2010.
The child is named after Becker's wife's uncle Edley, and his friend, Mexican-Cuban millionaire Luis Garcia Fanjul, who is also the child's godfather.
In May 2018, Lilly and Becker announced that they had separated after nine years of marriage.

Since July 2019, reports appeared that Becker is dating British model Layla Powell.
