Hulk: “Flirting”, then marrying his wife’s niece

Hulk is famous for being a striker with a body like an athlete, even considered the most muscular striker in Brazilian football from 2010 to 2020, and his name has been especially noticed since playing for Porto. He scored a total of 77 goals in 170 matches in all competitions for the Portuguese team. However, unlike other South American players, Hulk did not choose to go to famous clubs to continue developing his career, but went to Zenit (Russia) or Shanghai SIPG (China) to satisfy his need to earn a lot of money.

Before returning home to Atlético Mineiro in late January 2021, Hulk earned £16.6m/season during his five-year stint in China. Hulk was also very happy in his marriage to Iran Angelo. However, the couple went their separate ways in July 2019 after 12 years of marriage and three children.

It is worth mentioning that just a few months after breaking up with Iran, this 35-year-old star suddenly went public with the blonde beauty Camila Angelo. And in March 2020, while still competing in China, Hulk found every way to bring Camila Angelo to the world’s most populous country to hold a simple, cozy wedding here to introduce his new partner.

Initially, the Brazilian press believed that Hulk and Camila Angelo got married so quickly because the beauty needed the relationship to be granted a visa to stay in China. However, over time, the couple remained inseparable and to date, they have two children together.

It would not be worth mentioning that Camila Angelo is the niece of Iran Angelo, Hulk’s ex-wife. This player broke up with his ex-wife in July 2019 and shocked a few months later when he announced his “new love”. During the time Hulk played football in China, his ex-wife often invited her “beautiful niece” from Brazil to visit, and perhaps that was the “seed” for the two to develop feelings.

Iran (in black) had invited her “niece” Camila (in white) to China many times when she was still Hulk’s wife.

Although the former Porto striker denied having an affair with his ex-wife and claimed that he only started a relationship with Camila after his divorce from Iran, few people believed him, especially when they saw how hot his “niece” was. In fact, Hulk was quite famous for his relationship with Iran because his ex-wife was 17 years older than the striker!

Currently, Hulk is only 38 years old while Camila is 35 and Iran is 55. The age difference and beauty make people question this story. Iran Angelo affirmed that he will never forgive his niece even though he still maintains a good relationship with Camila’s biological mother, Iran’s sister.

“I have given it everything since it was born. It is like my own child. Not only money but also love, care and affection. If I did something wrong in this relationship, it was probably just trusting others too much.”
According to The Sun (UK), Brazilian striker Hulk will hold a wedding on a beach next December with Camila, the niece of his ex-wife Iran Angelo.

Hulk married his new wife, his ex-wife’s niece.

In July 2019, Hulk initially caused a stir among Brazilian public opinion and fans when he split from his wife Iran Angelo after 12 years of marriage. At that time, Hulk and Iran Angelo had 3 children together, including 2 sons Ian, Tiago and daughter Alice.

Previously, Hulk was considered a family man, not involved in any scandals off the field. Therefore, many people felt sorry for Hulk when he and Iran Angelo were no longer a couple.

But just 5 months later, in December 2019, Hulk once again made his “mark” in life outside the field. Unlike the disappointment that fans experienced last time, this time it was a real shock: Hulk publicly announced his new lover, Camila, the niece of… Iran Angelo. Hulk did not even hesitate to “shamelessly” announce it very specifically to his family members, including his children with Iran Angelo.

In 2020, Hulk and Camila finalized their civil marriage. Of course, the couple received a lot of criticism, with both husband and wife being labeled as immoral and causing suffering to Iran Angelo and the children.

Despite this, Hulk and Camila seem to be… truly in love. They have ignored public opinion and openly expressed their passionate love anytime, anywhere. The result of the new life Hulk created with Camila is the birth of two daughters named Zaya (April 2022) and Aisha (June 2023).

And to further affirm his love for Camila, Hulk decided to hold a wedding ceremony in December. Obviously, the striker who played 49 times for the Brazilian national team showed that he was really serious about Camila and wanted to have lasting happiness with this woman without any attachment to his ex-wife Iran Angelo, and in terms of status in his mother’s family, he would have to switch to calling her… “aunt”.

During his career, Hulk scored 11 goals for the Brazilian national team, and participated in the 2014 World Cup held at home. The only title Hulk won for the Brazilian national team was the 2013 Confederations Cup championship.

At club level, Hulk was also a very talented striker. During his time playing for Porto (2008-2012), Hulk was the main striker, winning 4 domestic titles and 1 Europa League championship. After that, Hulk had time to play for Zenit St Petersburg and Shanghai SIPG.

In 2021, Hulk returned home and played for Atletico MG. This season, Hulk’s team played very well in the Copa Libertadores and reached the final to meet Botafogo. In the Brazilian National Championship, Atletico MG is ranked 11th after 34 rounds.
