Former tennis ace Chris Evert admits that she misses time with her ex-husband, Australian golf great Greg Norman, their kids, and his parents.

Evert and Norman was married in an over-the-top ceremony in the Bahamas in June 2008, but got divorced 18 months later.

When asked by Women's Day magazine if she missed Norman, she said: "I miss my family time with Andy and the kids.

"That was 20 years of history. Probably the best years of my life.

"I also really miss Greg's parents. The best part about him are his parents."

Back in 1979, Evert married English tennis player John Lloyd and was divorced in 1987.

After a year, she married US Olympic downhill skier Andy Mill and they had three sons. However, the marriage failed and in December 2006, the couple divorced.

According to Evert, she had no idea that she and Norman were heading for splitsville.

"I had no idea it was coming. No idea. It wasn't talked about, ever.

"Never in a million years did I imagine it would end up like this."
