In a heartfelt ceremony held on August 30, 2024, in the vibrant city of Abidjan, former Ivorian international Emmanuel Eboue exchanged vows for the second time, seven years after his divorce from Belgian beauty Aurelie Bertrand. The 41-year-old ex-Arsenal defender officially embraced his childhood sweetheart, Stephanie Boede, a successful Ivorian businesswoman, in a celebration that joyfully brought together family and friends.

The couple tied the knot at the luxurious Sofitel in Cocody, marking a significant return to happiness for Eboue after a tumultuous period following his previous marriage. His divorce from Aurelie was anything but amicable, costing him dearly in terms of financial stability, and leaving him devoid of many of his assets.

It is well-documented that during his illustrious career, Eboue earned a fortune, raking in millions while playing in the Premier League and later commanding over £1.5 million annually at Turkish giants Galatasaray. However, post-divorce, he found himself in a precarious situation, often evading police and bailiffs as he was compelled by court order to transfer his remaining property to his ex-wife.

Despite the numerous challenges, Eboue has always refuted claims that he faced bankruptcy solely due to his ex-wife’s claim over their shared assets. Instead, he found solace in rekindling his romance with Stephanie Boede, who was his girlfriend before his first marriage. They initially had a court wedding back in 2018, but the recent white wedding is a beautiful affirmation of their love.

Interestingly, the world of football remains rife with tales of marital woes, as illustrated by the current situation of Manchester City defender Kyle Walker. Reports suggest that if his relationship with long-term partner Annie Kilner were to dissolve, he could potentially part with a significant portion of his £27 million fortune. Walker’s recent foray into fatherhood with former Love Island star Lauryn Goodman adds another layer of complexity, potentially jeopardizing the stability he shares with Kilner and their four sons, particularly concerning the £3.5 million property they own together.
