Boris Becker, 56, and Lilian de Carvalho Monteiro could hardly be happier, because according to “Bild” they have finally tied the knot. The couple, who have been together since 2020, said “yes” in front of friends and family – and behind closed doors.

Boris Becker and Lilian de Carvalho Monteiro have married

The tennis legend and the risk analyst vowed their eternal love in Portofino, a small town in Liguria, northern Italy. The ceremony took place on Saturday, September 14, 2024, in the Abbazia della Cervara, an old monastery complex on the Monte di Portofino. While the couple celebrated their wedding eve in public the evening before, the two and their wedding party withdrew completely on the day of the wedding.

According to RTL, several cars arrived in front of the building in the afternoon, but the guests were immediately ushered in. Boris and his loved ones, as well as the tennis legend’s family, were not seen. As “Bild” now reports, Boris Becker and Lilian de Carvalho Monteiro tied the knot early on Saturday evening.

Witnesses to the wedding were Boris’ sons Elias, 25, and Noah, 30, from his previous marriage to Barbara Becker, 57. According to “Bild”, former ski racer Christa Kinshofer, 63, and Daniel Grieder, 62, head chef at Hugo Boss, were also there to celebrate with the former top athlete and his current wife.

Guests arrived on Friday for the bridal shower

Boris Becker and Lilian naturally arrived in the coastal town before their big day. The two were spotted in a restaurant beforehand, and they seemed relaxed. This is shown by pictures available to RTL. The bridal shower took place on Friday evening, September 13, and the couple kicked off their wedding marathon.

Boris and Lilian arrived on a yacht to their waiting wedding guests on the pier in Portofino. The two lovers were greeted with cheers by their guests. Lilian wore a white dress with black polka dots, while Boris opted for a light blue three-piece suit. Afterwards, the couple and their wedding party went to the upscale restaurant Ristorante Puny, where the bridal shower took place.

Marriage number three for the tennis star

This is already Boris Becker’s third marriage: he was married to Barbara Becker from 1993 to 2001. In 2009, he married Lilly Becker, 48, with her hat on their 56-year-old son Amadeus, 14; the marriage lasted nine years. Now the former tennis ace has once again sailed into the harbor of marriage.

Becker has already been through difficult times with Lilian: When he began a prison sentence of around one and a half years in the UK in April 2022 for insolvency offenses, she stood by him and visited him in prison again and again. Now the couple can enjoy their life together in their adopted home of Milan.
