Love life and husband

Caroline gave birth to their daughter Yasmine Habib only a couple of months following their wedding, and then to their twin sons Aaron and Zac Habib in April 2010.
The family lived in London, but after Cem had to move to Dubai for work in 2016, the entire family moved there together; it was in 2019 that Cem and Caroline divorced.
In 2021, Caroline exchanged vows with Spanish soccer player Sergio Carrallo; the ceremony took place in the Republic of Mauritius, because the United Arab Emirates laws (at that point) didn’t allow interfaith marriages.
Caroline’s married to her second husband Sergio Carrallo as of October 2022, and has three children with her first husband Cem Habib.
