The football king’s relatives await the completion of an important procedure that will define the division of assets

OR TV room heard from a source close to one of Pele’s direct heirs regarding the inheritance. The former player acted not to leave the widow with nothing.

As reported by the blog on January 11, the entrepreneur Márcia Aoki, 56, is not the heir by right, despite having been related to him for more than 10 years.

The wedding took place on 9 July 2016 and lasted until the former player’s death on 29 December 2022 at the age of 82 from cancer.

According to article 1641 of the Brazilian civil code, a person over the age of 70 cannot choose the patrimonial regime when getting married. Mandatory will be the total separation.

Pelé was 75 years old on the date of the ceremony held at a location in Guarujá on the coast of São Paulo, where the couple lived in a villa facing the sea.

It is known that Márcia Aoki has always been successful. She had her possessions before she started dating Pele. She never depended on him financially.

From what we learn from the blog, the greatest athlete of the 20th century has established that the third woman should receive 30% of the remaining assets.

The certainty is that Pelé’s direct heirs are 8: the 6 living children (Kelly, Edinho, Jennifer, Flávia, Joshua and Celeste) and the grandchildren Otávio and Gabriel, children of Sandra Regina, the eldest daughter who managed to be recognized in court . He died of cancer, aged 42, in 2006.

Represented by several lawyers, the family members await the end of the inventory, i.e. the takeover of all assets, investments and other assets of the deceased. Any debts are included in the document.

Only after that does the process of sharing between heirs begin. This division can be judicial or extrajudicial, depending on the agreement between the beneficiary parties.
