German/ Chealsea football skipper Ballack weds


Chelsea and German soccer ace Michael Ballack married Simone Lambe in a small register office ceremony in Germany on Tuesday.

They are due to exchange vows again on Wednesday in front of about 400 guests at a church near Munich.

According to The Sun , the couple would be holding two days of celebrations at an exclusive yacht club on idyllic Lake Starnberg, where German captain Ballack, 31, had a house when he played for Bayern Munich.

He now lives in Wimbledon, South West London, with Simone, 30, and their three young sons.
