He may have been one of the world's biggest tennis players in the 90s, but it's Boris Becker's daughter who's stealing the limelight these days.
Anna Ermakova, who's the lovechild of Becker and Russian model Angela Ermakova, walked the runway at Berlin Fashion Week overnight, cementing her status as the newest celebrity offspring to watch.
With her signature curly red hair (inherited from Boris) and 5'10 stature, Ermakova has a promising career ahead of her - which she acknowledges has been helped by her famous parents.
"I know it's my name that opens doors, but I cannot make myself unknown," the teenager told press backstage. "It isn't about the money. I also do not consider myself a professional. It's a small beginning of something that I want to try."
Ermakova described her runway experience as "a dream come true," adding, "All my girlfriends dream about such a chance. Everything went incredibly quickly for me."
At 14, Ermakova is underage for some modelling agencies, with many in the US and Australia taking girls aged 16 and over only.
But Ermakova concedes that her mother, formerly a Russian model, is by her side at all times.
"My mother is, naturally, always with me and I want it that way," said the teenager. "That's what I'm doing here, an excursion into a new world, which I really love. I really never expected to cause such a frenzy."
Becker did not acknowledge Anna until years after she was born because she was famously conceived on a night out in London - while his then wife was at home pregnant with their second child.
It seems time has changed his tune however, because Becker proudly posted a photo of the 14-year old to his Instagram account alongside the caption, "What a beautiful young lady #Anna #family #berlin #mbfw"
