FORMER Brazilian star Hulk tied the knot with his ex-wife's niece in a lavish wedding ceremony.
The 38-year-old married beauty Camila Angelo yesterday in his hometown of Campina Grande.
Hulk looked dapper in a brown suit and his bride dazzled in a sparkling white dress.
The veteran forward posted photos from the wedding on Instagram, with the loved-up duo walking down the aisle and sharing a kiss.
Hulk captioned the post: “For God and the promises of our love, we unite in one heart and begin our eternity, life together! I love you.”
A sea of roses, enormous chandeliers and works of art filled the church, called the Diocesan Cathedral of Our Lady of the Conception, where the ceremony took place.
The couple is having a party on Tuesday to celebrate their wedding.
Reports in Brazil say they rented a luxury resort for the party, which involved 500 people throughout the day, from chefs, floral designers and sound engineers.
Hulk was previously married to Iran Angelo de Souza for twelve years and they had three children.
But the couple went their separate ways in 2019, with Hulk starting dating her niece Camila nine months later.
They initially married in 2020 because she needed a visa to stay in China, where he was playing.
Camila had a child with Hulk named Aisha five months ago.
Their relationship has caused controversy in the family, with his ex-wife's Iranian sister Rayassa taking to Instagram yesterday to attack them and their wedding.
She wrote: 'Today is a hard day to swallow, a day that shows how far betrayal can go when it comes from the people we least expect.
“It is sad to realize that Judas does not only appear in ancient stories, sometimes he sleeps under the same roof, eats at the same table and stabs himself in the back at the right moment.
“Wanting what belongs to someone else, wanting to live the life of someone you trusted, is a reflection of an empty heart, unable to create its own happiness.”
Hulk made 49 appearances for Brazil and spent his playing days at Porto, Zenit Saint Petersburg and Shanghai SIPG.
He now plays for Atletico Mineiro in his home country.
