Former Brazil star Hulk marks fifth anniversary with his ex-wife's NIECE with heartfelt social media post
Former Brazil striker Hulk claimed that 'every day is a new blessing' in a touching message marking his fifth anniversary with his ex-wife's niece.
Hulk was previously married to Camila's aunt, Iran Angelo, with the couple together for 12 years. They had three children together between 2007 and 2019; sons Ian and Tiago, and a daughter, Alice - who are cousins to his new wife.
The 38-year-old, who plays for Atletico Mineiro, married Camila Angelo in a religious ceremony in January, with the two already having previously tied the knot at a civil ceremony in 2020.
He took to Instagram to write: '5 years by your side and I can only thank God for our story. Every day is a new blessing, every moment a new memory.
'May our love continue to grow with strength, respect and happiness. I love you, my wife, my life.'
In 2020, Hulk stunned many when he married Camila following the end of his 12-year relationship with Iran. One of Iran's sisters, Rayssa, had some scathing remarks for Camila on social media.
Rayssa wrote: '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. 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.'
In 2021, Hulk and Camila confirmed that they were expecting their first child, Zaya. Last year they announced they were expecting a second child, Aisha.
Reports of the relationship between Hulk and Camila emerged in December 2019, just five months after his marriage with Iran ended. It is believed Hulk told his family about his relationship with Camila at this time - including his children Ian, Tiago, and Alice.
The couple married in September 2020, when Hulk was still playing for Chinese side Shanghai SIPG.
A spokesman for the striker said in a statement at the time: 'Hulk called the parents and the brother of Camila and told them the truth.
'It was Hulk himself who made the information public because he had nothing to hide.
'His position is transparency and he wants to avoid lies and malicious comments.'

This pop-up store in Osaka's Shinsaibashi Parco carries only black apparel
You can't go wrong with black – and if that's your go-to colour and style, you'll be glad to hear that a pop-up store dedicated entirely to black apparel is coming to Parco Shinsaibashi in Osaka. From T-shirts and button-downs to trousers, shorts and more, everything here comes in varying shades of black. Open for just over three weeks from June 18 to July 13, the Macqlo Shinsaibashi Parco Pop-Up Store brings together two unique retailers from Tokyo, both specialising in black garments. #000T curates only black T-shirts from Japan and around the world. It first opened in Kabukicho and later reincarnated at Miyashita Park, where it shares space with this pop-up's other collaborator, Macqlo. Macqlo focuses on black garments that deliver high functionality. Think stretch, water-repellent, quick-drying and durable fabrics, all in black. Since its launch, the brand has gained a strong following among men in their 30s and 40s who want a stylish yet easy-to-maintain wardrobe. This pop-up, which marks #000T's first appearance in the Kansai region, will offer over 40 styles of curated black T-shirts alongside Macqlo's functional black apparel. While they may look similar at first glance, what sets these pieces apart are the materials, cut, silhouette and construction. In short, these are your fashionable blacks. Brands to look out for include Mizuno, Red Card, Veja, Anatomica, Aton, Nigel Cabourn, Sunspel and more. As a special opening promotion, customers who spend ¥25,000 (tax included) or more in a single go will receive a Macqlo World Tee – black, of course – printed with the phrase 'Pure Black' in any of six languages: Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Arabic, Thai or Hebrew. This free gift is available while stocks last. The Macqlo Shinsaibashi Parco Pop-Up Store will be open daily from 10am to 8pm, at the B1F pop-up space in Shinsaibashi Parco.

Elizabeth Hurley, 60, strips down to birthday suit and confesses she's 'in love'
Elizabeth Hurley has celebrated turning 60 in style by sharing a cheeky picture in just her birthday suit, confessing she is 'in love'. In her Instagram post, the Austin Powers icon hinted at a 'wild ride' year, which included hard launching her relationship with Billy Ray Cyrus, 63. The pair shocked the world by posting a picture of them kissing on Instagram after meeting on the set of the 2022 film Christmas in Paradise. Weeks later, they were loved up in Rome, walking arm in arm at a Valentino event so things seem to be going strong so far with the famous duo. There was no direct mention of the Achy Breaky Heart hitmaker in her birthday post as Elizabeth stripped down for her 60th — but there was a subtle message to him. 'Happy birthday to me!' Liz captioned the snap on her social media, a sentiment echoed by her friends and family in the comments. She continued: 'This year has already been a wild ride; my 30th year of working with the Estée Lauder Companies, my 30th year as the Global Ambassador of the @esteelaudercompanies Breast Cancer Campaign, the 20th anniversary of @elizabethhurleybeach.' Somewhat casually, the model then revealed she is 'in love', which was followed by plenty of heart emojis. Presumably, she means in love with Billy Ray, who she went official with in April after his split with ex-wife Firerose, 36. 'Feeling very blessed and grateful for having the best friends & family in the world,' Liz said before casually adding: 'Pic taken this afternoon… in my birthday suit xxx.' Over on his Instagram, Billy Ray wished happy birthday to 'the love of my life ❤️' and shared a snap of them together. Liz responded with heart reactions, meanwhile, on her post birthday wishes flooded in from famous faces such as Sarah Michelle Gellar and Richard E. Grant. Her son Damian, 23, wrote: 'Hahahah I LOVE YOU ♥️♥️♥️ happy birthday mama xxx.' 'Congratulations beautiful smart funny Elizabeth ❤️ Wishing you the best birthday. Love you 🥳❤️😘,' added Heidi Klum. Actress Patsy Kensit, 57, penned: 'To my dearest wonderful friend for nearly 30 years …. So privileged to be spending your birthday with you and your glorious family… I never want to leave I have had the best day celebrating you.. 'Your the most beautiful kind human being and I will always love you forever… thank you for including me today and making magical memories and see you with your true love Billy who is so fabulous I'm so happy for you both and aunt ratticus loved her time with my gorgeous nephew D… one of the most special days I've had in a very long time. I love you ratticus rat ❤️❤️. [sic]' Liz and Billy Ray have not publicly spoken about their romance but a source confirmed to People Magazine she reached out after their film together. They said: 'Liz is great and visited him for Easter. They've been seeing each other romantically for a little bit. 'And how lucky is he? Liz is lovely. She's very warm, positive and the best to be around.' More Trending Billy Ray was previously married to Cindy Smith from 1986 to 1991, and then Tish Cyrus from 1993 to 2022, with whom he shares five kids, including Grammy-winning pop star Miley Cyrus, 32. Liz was previously married to Indian entrepreneur and businessman Arun Nayar from 2007 to 2010, and shared son Damian, 23, with late American businessman Steve Bing. She also had high-profile relationships with actor Hugh Grant – for 13 years – and cricket star Shane Warne, to whom she was engaged between 2011 and 2013 before amicably parting ways ahead of his death aged 52 in March 2022.
