Courtois shows off his shirtless chest with his wife Mishel on their honeymoon

Newlyweds Thibaut Courtois and Mishel Gerzig enjoyed a day at the beach on Wednesday as they honeymooned in Formentera.

The Real Madrid and Belgian goalkeeper, 31, and his model wife, 26, looked in high spirits as they relaxed on the sand and took a dip in the sea.

The couple tied the knot last week in a beautiful wedding ceremony at the Chateau de la Croix des Gardens in Cannes, France.

They began dating in the summer of 2021, after Thibaut commented on a photo of Mishel with her pet dog on Instagram.

Thibaut has a son and daughter from his previous relationship to ex-girlfriend Marta Dominguez, who Mishel says have 'accepted' her.

Speaking to Menta magazine in September, she said: 'They're very sweet, they've accepted me, we're a family and it's really heartwarming. They see me as their friend and I like it that way.'

She added: 'On the personal level, I'm expecting to build our own family in the next year, and God willing, in the future we'll have our own children.'

Their honeymoon comes as Thibaut has become embroiled in captaincy drama with the Belgian national team.

Last month, he reportedly failed to arrive for Belgium duty after Romelu Lukaku was named captain ahead of him for their draw with Austria.

In the absence of usual skipper Kevin De Bruyne, Romelu
