Boris Becker offers behind-the-scenes information about their honeymoon
In September, Boris Becker tied the knot with Lilian de Carvalho Monteiro in Italy. Post their honeymoon on Capri, the tennis legend and his new spouse are back, delighting their fans with their romantic escapades.
"Under the dusk where Capri's sun disappears into the sea..." echoes the lyrics from Rudi Schuricke's 1943 hit "Capri-Fisherman". This magnificent Italian island in the Bay of Naples is famous not just for its breathtaking sunsets and pristine beaches, but also its opulent hotels and high-end boutiques.
Boris Becker, 56, and his spirited 34-year-old bride, a risk analyst, epitomize the perfect pair for a luxurious romantic retreat. Given their residence in Milan and their wedding in Portofino, they opted for a hassle-free honeymoon by staying within Italy's borders. Becker launches a private video on Instagram, showcasing Capri's charm as an ideal destination for honeymooners, including boat trips, fine dining, and scenic coastal drives in a convertible. A must-visit for the couple is the Blue Grotto. Lilian is spotted sunbathing aboard in a pristine white bikini, while the couple shares affectionate moments, embodying the essence of newlyweds.
Becker captioned his Instagram post, "Thanks, Capri! The food, the weather, the people - we loved every moment of our honeymoon."
A "wonderful" marriage
In the aftermath of their wedding, Becker confessed to "Vogue" in an interview that the feeling of being married already felt "wonderful". His most cherished moment during the ceremony was declaring his bride as his wife. However, their honeymoon had to be postponed until Christmas due to their hectic schedules. Perhaps to avoid paparazzi during their honeymoon, Becker intimated they'd pretend to be too busy in order to maintain privacy. Such endeavors were effective, allowing Becker and Lilian to enjoy Capri's sunsets uninterrupted.
Becker's matrimonial journey spans three women. He was married to Barbara Becker from 1993 to 2001 and they share sons Noah and Elias Becker. In 2009, he wed Sharlely "Lilly" Becker, with whom he shares a son Amadeus. Boris also has a daughter, Anna Ermakova, with Russian-British model Angela Ermakova.
The newlywed couple, Boris Becker and Lilian de Carvalho Monteiro, chose to spend their honeymoon exploring Italy's beauty, specifically Capri. The Commission, in collaboration with local authorities, is considering promoting Capri as an ideal destination for romantic getaways, recognizing its popularity among celebrity couples like Becker and his wife.
