Secret dream wedding: Tennis legend Boris Becker has said “yes” for the third time

Former tennis player Boris Becker and his now wife Lilian are celebrating their wedding in a big three-day celebration. The ceremony will take place in Becker’s adopted home of Italy, more precisely in the fishing village of Portofino, southeast of Genoa. Around 150 guests have been invited to the event. According to reports, Becker’s mother Elvira and Becker’s ex-wife Barbara were not present.

The illegitimate daughter of Boris Becker and “Let’s Dance” winner Anna Ermakova, as well as his son Amadeus were not invited to her father’s wedding. His second wife Lily Becker commented on Boris’ decision in an interview with “Bunte”: “To behave like that towards our son is the last thing we should do.” The Becker son did receive an invitation – via WhatsApp.

Boris Becker and Lilian tie the knot in Cervara Abbey

The small Italian village is a popular place for celebrities; Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton loved to retreat here. Boris Becker and Lilian de Carvalho Monteiro tied the knot and said “I do” in the Cervara Abbey, a historic monastery above the bay of Portofino. Afterwards, the newlywed couple and their guests went to a luxury hotel to celebrate their marriage in style. Anyone hoping for beautiful pictures will be disappointed. Even the day after the ceremony, there is not even a glimpse of the wedding cake. The reason: Becker sold the photos to the highest bidder.

But on the evening of the wedding, the couple appeared in public. Becker also shares snapshots on Instagram. He wore a light blue suit with a waistcoat, a white shirt and white sneakers on his feet. Lilian went ashore barefoot, only slipping into her pumps later. She carries a red handbag with her off-the-shoulder polka dot dress.

The tennis player was married to Barbara Becker from 1993 to 2001 and to Lilly Becker from 2009 to 2018. Becker has been with his third wife since 2020.
