Romanian tennis star Simona Halep (29) married the Macedonian rich Toni Juruk (42), who is 13 years older than her.
The couple had a lavish wedding on Wednesday in their hometown of Constanta, a city that is the largest port on the Black Sea.
The two-time Grand Slam champion and former best tennis player on the planet has decided to crown her three-year relationship with marriage.
Simona chose a beige dress with lace instead of a classic white wedding dress, and later changed into a long white dress with a large black ribbon.
