Michael Formella held hands with his 30-year-old bride even as prosecutors alleged that she told the boy that she had no intention of marrying her husband, that she was going to leave him and get millions of dollars — and that she even sent the teen messages while on vacation with him in Italy, according to the Daily Herald.

Christina Formella, a former teacher at Downers Grove South High School in suruban Chicago, is now facing 55 charges including aggravated sexual assault, aggravated criminal sex abuse and grooming. She faces up to 60 years in prison if convicted.

She walked up to DuPage County Circuit Court Tuesday hand-in-hand with her spouse and accompanied by her defense team, according to footage obtained by The Post from TikTokker Abby Blabby.

The couple stayed mum entering the courthouse.
