The groom wore Armani.

“Who’s that?” asked a nine-year-old Messi, Luca recalled. Leo later wrote the eight-year-old Antonella a letter in which he exclaimed: “One day we will be boyfriend and girlfriend”.

Portugal had gotten kicked out of the Confederations Cup, Cristiano Ronaldo had flown home to see his twins, but the sporting world was talking about one thing over the weekend: Lionel Messi’s lavish wedding to long-term partner and mother of his two boys, Antonella Roccuzzo.

Although the bride looked stunning in a gown by Rosa Clará, all eyes were on her groom.

The event was billed as the ‘Wedding of the Century’ by the media and it looked like everyone had a good time. Congrats Leo and Anto.
