Former Brazil striker Hulk has organised a religious wedding ceremony as he prepares to marry his ex-wife’s niece.
As reported by Portal Leodias, Hulk, who plays for Atletico Mineiro, is set to marry Camila Angelo in December.
The ceremony will take place on a beach on the coast of Paraiba, with an exact date yet to be arranged.
Hulk previously acted as an uncle to Camila during his marriage to Iran Angelo.
In 2020, Hulk stunned many when he married Camila following the end of his 12-year relationship with Iran.
The following year, the couple confirmed that they were expecting their first child, Zaya. Last year they announced that they were expecting a second child, Aisha.

Atletico are still in contention for the CONMEBOL Libertadores Cup, which could lead to them competing in the FIFA Intercontinental Club Cup. That would extend their season and could force Hulk to delay the wedding ceremony.
Hulk scored 11 goals in 49 appearances for Brazil between 2009 and 2021 and was part of the squad that won the Confederations Cup in 2013.
In club football he is best known for his spell at Porto between 2008 and 2012, which included him winning the Europa League and four league titles.
In addition, Hulk, now aged 38, enjoyed success with Zenit St Petersburg and Shanghai SIPG.
Reports of the relationship between Hulk and Camila emerged in December 2019, just five months after de Sousa’s marriage with Iran Angelo ended in July of the same year.
The pair married in September 2020, when Hulk was still playing for Chinese side Shangai SIPG following his split from the mother of his three other children – two sons and a daughter.
The couple, who already had a daughter named Zaya, announced last year that they were expecting a second child, Aisha

It is believed Hulk told his family about his relationship with Camila in December 2019 – including his three school-age children Ian, Thiago, and Alice.
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.’
