DUBAI: Spanish football star Cesc Fabregas married his longtime Lebanese partner Daniella Semaan back in May, but it seems that the pair are keen to carry on the celebrations as they hosted a post-wedding party in Ibiza on Tuesday night.
The pair are parents to five children, two of whom are Semaan’s son and daughter from her previous marriage to property tycoon Elie Taktouk.
On her Instagram account, Semaan describes herself as the “mother of Maria, Joseph, Lia, Capri and Leonardo.”
On Tuesday, the family was joined by the who’s who of the football world as world-famous players walked the red carpet before the party.
Five-time Ballon D'Or winner Lionel Messi attended the bash with his wife Antonella Roccuzzo, while former Chelsea captain John Terry also made an appearance with his wife Toni Terry.
Proving that it was date night for many a player, Uruguayan footballer Luis Suarez posed for photographs alongside his wife Sofia Balbi.
Spanish football greats Sergio Busquets and Carles Puyol also walked the red carpet before the party.
Despite the sea of glittering gowns and leggy displays by many a footballer’s wife, Semaan, 43, stole the show (and rightly so) in a form-fitting, low-cut white bridal gown embroidered with a healthy dose of sparkle and belted at the waist. The almost-hip-high slit was just one aspect of a gown that left little to the imagination.
For his part, Fabregas, 31, matched his new wife, wearing a sharp white suit with crystal-embroidered lapels.
The couple’s children also wore white, making it a family affair to remember.
After marrying in a star-studded ceremony on one of the Balearic Islands in May — guests included Chelsea football stars Ross Barkley, Ethan Ampadu, Marcos Alonso and N'Golo Kante among others — Daniella shared a clutch of wedding pictures on her Instagram account, captioning one of them: “Just married to this handsome man that I adore (sic.)”
“One magical day,” she captioned another snap.
The bride wore a gown by Spanish bridal designer Rosa Clará for her wedding in May, while her daughter Maria was dressed by Lebanese designer Georges Hobeika.
More recently, the family jetted over to Greece’s Mykonos, where they spend time by the beach before arriving in Ibiza for their post-wedding celebration.
