Boris Becker got married for the third time on Saturday. The 56-year-old former tennis star and his 34-year-old fiancée Lilian de Carvalho Monteiro tied the knot in romantic Portofino, Italy. 

According to reports, the wedding took place in the old Abbazia della Cervara, a monastery complex built in 1361 on the Monte di Portofino. The wedding guests, including soccer star Alessio Medina (AC Milan), are said to have only found out on Saturday where exactly the wedding was taking place.

Third marriage
This is Boris Becker's third marriage. He married Barbara Becker, the mother of his two eldest sons Noah (30) and Elias (25), in 1993.

Four children
The two sons are said to have been the only ones of his four children to attend the wedding in Italy.

In 2009, he married Lilly Becker, with whom he has another son, 14-year-old Amadeus. He also has a daughter, Anna Ermakova (24), with the model Angela Ermakova.

Love endured prison sentence
Becker has been in a relationship with Lilian since 2020. The couple separated in April 2022 because the former tennis player had to serve a prison sentence in the UK for bankruptcy offenses. Lilian kept visiting him in prison. After his release, the couple built a new life in Milan.
