Benni and Stacey tied the knot in a beautiful ceremony held in Scotland in 2014. The pair reportedly met in 2008 while he was shooting an advert for Nike in Edinburgh.
"I went there on a shoot and she was one of those pretty girls they have as extras. I couldn’t concentrate on what I was supposed to do," the former Bafana Bafana forward said in an interview.
Benni and Stacey have two children together, three-year-old son Lio Romero and daughter Lima Rose, who recently celebrated her 11th birthday.
The family is currently based in England where Benni works as a first-team coach for Manchester United.
The 45-year-old reportedly earns more than R800,000 a week working for the football club.
