Lilian de Carvalho Monteiro Shares Baby Plans With Boris Becker, December Birth Set for Milan

Her rare interviews signal new openness about their Italian life after years of legal turmoil.

Overview

  • Monteiro says children born in Italy receive the father's surname, so their baby will be registered as Becker.
  • She has not taken her husband's surname under Italian practice and says a combined name is a possibility later.
  • The couple is considering a second residence in São Tomé and Príncipe to keep their child connected to her origins.
  • Becker says he has been out of insolvency since 27 April 2024 and does not plan to return to Germany.
  • Monteiro recounts a slow courtship and her support through his trial, calling the 2022 sentencing on her birthday the worst day of her life.
