Boris Becker has married Lilian de Carvalho Monteiro.
The couple were spotted for the first time since their wedding in Portofino when they joined their children for the Boss show at Milan Fashion Week on Wednesday.
Boris, 56, and Lilian, 33, wore gold wedding rings, just hours after the tennis champion shared his happy news with his Instagram followers.
Alongside a carousel of images from the wedding, Boris wrote: ‘New beginnings…
‘I want to thank Victor Monteiro for his blessings and everyone who celebrated this special day with us.
‘Let me introduce you to the Monteiro-Becker family.’
Boris Becker has married Lilian de Carvalho Monteiro. The couple were spotted together for the first time since their wedding in Portofino, when they joined their children at the Boss show at Milan Fashion Week.
The couple spared no expense for the lavish ceremony, with Lilian looking incredible in a strapless ruched wedding dress and veil, while Boris opted for a two-piece suit.
Boris and Lilian tied the knot in an outdoor ceremony set in beautiful gardens and celebrated in the evening with a four-tiered buttercream cake laden with white roses.
Arriving at the Boss show on Wednesday, Boris was spotted with his wife and sons Noah, 30, and Elias, 25.
Lilian looked effortlessly chic in an oversized grey pinstripe suit paired with a black blouse and stiletto heels.
She completed her look for the show with a pair of gold double-hoop earrings and a statement watch, as well as carrying a small Boss clutch.

Meanwhile, Boris coordinated with his girlfriend in a grey shirt, while his sons opted for black ensembles.
Over the weekend, Boris made Lilian de Carvalho Monteiro his third wife, with a three-day wedding party at a posh Italian resort.
The 56-year-old tennis star and commentator will marry Lilian, a political risk manager from the African island of Sao Tome and Principe, in Portofino in front of about 150 guests.
Lilian, who is 23 years his junior, has stood by Boris through thick and thin after he was jailed for two-and-a-half years in the UK after it was discovered he had hidden £2.5m in assets and loans in a bankruptcy fraud case.
The Riviera centre, south of Genoa, is popular with the rich and famous. Rod Stewart married Penny Lancaster in 2007.
It is a delight for the tennis ace, who has six Grand Slams including three Wimbledon titles, after a troubled period that saw him banned from the UK.
Boris served eight months in Wandsworth and Huntercombe prisons before being deported from Britain in December 2022, ruling out a return to his BBC job commentating on Wimbledon.
However, he did contribute to Sky Italia’s coverage of the SW19 action over the summer. He had lived in the UK since 2012 and declared bankruptcy in 2017 before being jailed in April 2022.

Ms Monteiro, who lives in London, is a political risk analyst and holds three degrees, including a master’s degree in African studies from the School of Oriental and African Studies, and speaks five languages, including German, according to the German newspaper Bild.
She was born in the African island state of São Tomé and Príncipe and is the daughter of Victor Monteiro, the former defense minister of the republic who ran for president in 2014.
Ms. Monteiro spent much of her youth in Rome, where she attended a private school before studying at La Sapienza University.
He first came to London to study at the School of Oriental and African Studies, where he obtained his master’s degree at the age of 25.
He reportedly proposed to Lilian at Milan Cathedral in 2021, but any hopes of a fairytale wedding were dashed by the looming prison sentence.

She was constantly present at his side as he attended court hearings and even blew him a goodbye kiss when he was jailed last year and criticised by a judge for showing no remorse.
After leaving prison, the couple, who lived in the United Kingdom, moved to Milan.
A source told The Sun: “Boris is incredibly grateful to Lilian for sticking with him during ‘the most difficult time’ of his life.”
He said: “She saved me and I will never forget her for that. She is the woman of my new life!”
