Former Brazil international Hulk has tied the knot with Camila Angelo, his ex-wife’s niece, in a religious ceremony on Friday.
The couple had already formalised their union in a civil ceremony in 2020.
Reflecting on the occasion, Hulk expressed his joy on Instagram, writing, “Before God and the promises of our love, we unite in one heart, beginning our eternity together, life! I love you.”
The wedding took place in Hulk’s hometown of Campina Grande at The Diocesan Cathedral of Our Lady of the Conception, which was adorned with a sea of white roses.
Hulk wore a wine-colored suit and was accompanied down the aisle by his mother, while Camila, wearing an embroidered dress with a veil by designer Samuel Cirnansck, was escorted by her father.
Hulk entered the church to the sound of “Sabor de Mel” by Damares, while Camila chose “Que Bom Você Chegou” by Bruna Karla.
A grand reception is planned for January 7 at a luxury resort in João Pessoa, involving 500 professionals, including chefs, floral designers, and lighting technicians.
Hulk was previously married to Iran Angelo, Camila’s aunt, for 12 years.
Their marriage, which ended in 2019, produced three children: sons Ian and Tiago, and a daughter, Alice.
The relationship between Hulk and Camila became public in December 2019, just months after his split from Iran.
The couple married in September 2020, and in 2021, they welcomed their first child, Zaya, followed by their second child, Aisha, in 2023.
The relationship has drawn criticism from Camila’s family. Rayssa, one of Iran’s sisters, condemned the union on social media, writing, “Today is a hard day to swallow, a day that reveals how far betrayal can go when it comes from the people we least expect. If my mother were alive, I am sure she would not be able to bear such monstrosity.”
She continued, “Seeing a granddaughter, who grew up under her roof, betray her own family in such a cruel way would be an impossible blow to overcome. It is sad to realize that Judas is not only in ancient stories, sometimes he sleeps under the same roof, eats at the same table and, at the right moment, stabs himself in the back.”
Hulk, who currently plays for Atlético Mineiro, has had a successful football career, scoring 11 goals in 49 appearances for Brazil between 2009 and 2021.
He was part of the squad that won the Confederations Cup in 2013. At the club level, he enjoyed significant success with Porto, Zenit St. Petersburg, and Shanghai SIPG.
Despite the controversy surrounding his personal life, he continues to make headlines on and off the pitch.
