- Story Text: One day after Michael Ballack married his long-time partner Simone Lambe, the Germany captain and his wife celebrated their wedding at a yacht club in the posh southern German town of Starnberg on Tuesday (July 15).
Ballack and Lambe, wearing a white wedding gown, were seen arriving at the "Bavarian Yacht Club" in Starnberg, near Munich early on Tuesday afternoon.
Among the guests were the German Football Association (FA) sports director Michael Sammer and Christoph Daum, the current coach of FC Colgone.
On Monday, 31-year-old Ballack officially wed the mother of his three children in nearby Kempfenhausen.
The 31-year-old midfielder has three children with Lambe - Louis, Emilio and Jordi.
Ballack, who was born in the former East Germany, has played for several German teams, including Bayern Munich FC, before moving to Chelsea in 2006.
At the launch of his autobiography two years ago, the German midfielder said Otto Rehagel, his former coach at Kaiserlauten suggested he get into a stable relationship.
When he comes back from honeymoon, he will start working with Chelsea's new coach, Brazilian Luiz Felipe Scolari. - Copyright Holder: REUTERS
