British Grand Slam winner announces split from wife after 15 years

Jamie Murray, the elder brother of Sir Andy Murray, has finalised his divorce after 15 years of marriage.

The doubles specialist, 39, separated from wife Alejandra Gutierrez last year, with the divorce legally concluding on August 22, 2025.

The couple, who share a three-year-old daughter named Ava, were married in 2010 after meeting two years earlier when Gutierrez was a business student.

A spokesperson for Murray revealed: "Jamie and Alejandra Murray divorced on August 22, 2025, having separated the previous year. As with any divorce, this is an extremely difficult time for Jamie and Alejandra and they would appreciate that their privacy is respected whilst they navigate their future and protect their family."

Murray and Gutierrez first met in 2008 while she was studying business in Colombia. Two years later, they tied the knot at Cromlix House, a luxury hotel near Murray’s hometown of Dunblane.

His younger brother Andy, now retired, acted as best man at the ceremony.

Since the separation, Murray is understood to have joined Raya, the exclusive dating app used by celebrities and high-profile figures. Reports suggest his profile features a picture of him on court with Andy, who stepped away from the sport earlier this year.

A family friend said the situation had been difficult but that both parties were handling the split with maturity.

While often seen in the shadow of his younger brother’s singles success, Murray has carved out a highly successful doubles career.
