Aussie boxer Nikita Tszyu has married his girlfriend in an incredibly secret ceremony just weeks after his older brother and fellow fighter Tim tied the knot. Tszyu, who is known for staying out of the spotlight, wed his girlfriend Nikita Bedwell on Wednesday, with just his famous father Kostya, brother Tim and Ms Bedwell's dad there as witnesses.

When Tszyu's mother was asked about the ceremony, she revealed that she had only just been informed about the wedding taking place. 'If the couple are happy — I'm blessing them both!' she told News Corp. Tszyu, known as 'The Butcher' for his aggressive style in the ring, is much more reserved in his personal life.

There is barely a photo of his partner on social media or from public events, with many outsiders unaware that he was even in a relationship. Nikita Tszyu has married his girlfriend in a secret ceremony that even his mum Natalia (pictured together) didn't know much about.

The ceremony was attended by just a few people including Nikita's brother Tim (left) and dad Kostya (centre, pictured with Nikita). The wedding was reportedly rushed, requiring Tszyu and his wife to make an application with a registrar on Monday. Couples wanting to get married are required by law to give a month's notice, but Bedwell and Tszyu were able to get around this.
