Robbie Williams reunites his new wife with her father

Alan — Thu, 12 Aug 2010 09:03:13 +0000

Yes, it is possible to turn your life around. Just ask Robbie Williams, the singer/songwriter who has had multiple mega-hits in his career, but almost lost it to drugs and alcohol. He met Ayda Field, a Turkish-American actress, shortly after leaving rehab in 2007, and proposed to her last November on a live Australian radio show.

The couple took their vows last Saturday in an unconventional garden ceremony in Los Angeles. Approximately 60 guests got sushi and steak for the wedding dinner, and a full English breakfast at 1:00 a.m. Guests also got to hear Robbie sing his hit single ‘Angels’ to his bride.

The wedding was cause for more joy in the family when Ayda was reunited by telephone with her father Haldun Evecan. He is an advertising executive based in Istanbul who left Ayda’s mother and the U.S. in 1982 and reportedly had no contact with his daughter until she was 18.

Haldun told reporters that the two had talked for an hour when she called him on the morning of her wedding day, and that he had apologized for not being there for her, to which she responded that he had given her the greatest gift of all, life itself.

The emotional reunion via telephone apparently opened the door for a reconciliation and future connections. Haldun said he had been invited to Los Angeles, and that that he hopes to host a lavish reception for the newlyweds in Istanbul. Robbie is delighted with the idea, and said he can’t wait to meet Ayda’s Turkish family, especially her father.

Katie Price set to marry again, again, OK

Alan — Sat, 03 Jul 2010 18:41:15 +0000

Katie Price does not do things half way, in fact the well known perfectionist is more likely to do things twice including her latest wedding to Alex Reid the cage fighter.

The pair first was married in February of this year during a ‘quickie’ Las Vegas ceremony but three months later Price dumped him live on television. However, the pair is set to marry again on July 3^rd allowing their family and friends to attend the ceremony this time around.

So what can guests expect to see at this wedding? The answer is a lot although it will be a bit lower key than Price’s over the top wedding to Peter Andre in 2005. During this wedding Price arrived in a carriage drawn by horses and dressed in an ornate pink gown valued at £20,000 finished off by a tiara.

For this wedding, Price sold the photo rights to OK magazine for £1.75m but since the rights to this wedding have not been sold it is safe to say that it probably will not be quite the same OTT affair.

According to rumours, guests will get to see the bride in a gown from Doly, the London boutique, which should have cost her a pretty penny but she is said to have gotten free makeup and hair which should help compensate.

Price is said to have purchased plenty of alcohol from wholesalers as well and even written out her own wedding invitations showing that she has tried to pinch a few pennies this time around. Of course, given it’s her third wedding perhaps she has just gotten a bit smarter about the high costs of fairy tale weddings.

Huge Royal wedding in Sweden

Alan — Wed, 23 Jun 2010 05:07:53 +0000

Sweden has hosted the largest royal wedding since Di and Charles, with Crown Princess Victoria marrying Daniel Westling. The marriage was a true love match that made it despite the fact that King Carl XVI Gustaf was horrified that his daughter wanted to marry her fitness trainer.

The Swedish public did not respond so negatively however, with a growing number of people questioning how relevant the monarchy is in modern society. The marriage took place this past Saturday in Stockholm’s Storkykran Cathedral in the late afternoon.

In order to make the day perfectly majestic, the Swedish Royal Family invited a large array of world royalty to honor the marriage of their daughter to Westling who will now become known as HRH Prince Daniel the Duke of Vastergotland.

As the couple stood that the Cathedral altar, which is where the Princess’ parents were married, Victoria was dressed in short sleeves that were set of the shoulder and a gown made out of ivory silk.

The Prince also looked perfectly groomed which is a large improvement over the scruffy man seen in the Swedish newspapers when it was discovered that the Crown Princess was dating him.

Prince Edward and his wife Countess Sophie represented the British royal family with other royals in attendance including Prince Consort Henrik and Queen Margrethe of Denmark, Princes Martha Louise of Norway and her husband Ari Behn, and Victoria’s sister Princess Madeleine of Sweden.

Celebrations of the wedding will last for several days including a lunch at the City Hall of Stockholm, a private dinner at Drottningholm Palace, and a gala held at the City Concert Hall.

Europe goes crazy for Swedish wedding…betting

Alan — Fri, 18 Jun 2010 18:09:58 +0000

From the honeymoon destination to the gender of the first child, bridal couples now have many more hurdles in front of them, which may be why websites that promote betting are having a great time with the upcoming Princess Victoria’s wedding in Sweden.

During his speech to the bridal couple, odds were cast 1.21 to 1.0 that the King will mention the term ‘granddaughter’ and also set a 1.75 to 1.0 that he will say they were meant for each other. Other odds include 3.0 to 1.0 that he will name the hometown of the groom of the Princess, Daniel Westling, and 50 to 1.0 that he will mention the World Cup during his speech.

At the low end of the betting scale, with odds set at 1,000 to one is the gamble that the King will mention the ex-boyfriend of Princess Madeleine, Jonas Bergstroem. Their engagement was called off after it came to press that he had cheated on Victoria’s younger sister.

Gamblers are also keen to bet on where Victoria and Daniel will honeymoon with Ladbrokes betting that Hawaii was more likely than Bali or Brazil. It also believes that that the newlyweds likely will leave the cathedral in a Volvo instead of inside a BMW or Porsche, even in the face of reports that they will jump on a horse drawn carriage.

Unibet, another website for casting bets predicts there is a fifty-fifty chance of sun versus rain on the day while Bettson believes rain is more likely. The Swedish Meteorological Institute predicts that the weather may be windy with a temp of about 17C on Saturday.

Kylie says marriage is not on the cards for her

Alan — Sat, 08 May 2010 03:20:25 +0000

Marriage prospects and Kylie Minogue related gossip have almost been as rampant as Jennifer Aniston and her relationship gossip, but after 18 months have passed it is quite possible that this time could be the real thing between Minogue and Spanish model Andres Veloncoso.

However, for any fans that are waiting for the news they better not hold their breath, because Minogue admitted in a recent magazine interview that marriage may not be in her cards and that the only things she is sure of is that she could do worse that experience the unexpected.

Minogue added that she is in a ‘romantic’ place, which she thought she had already passed by at age 41, but is happy having fun doing what she pleases. Regardless of her marital status, Minogue is keeping herself busy with many different pots in the stove, including a new musical that details her life, which she is writing the script for.

William Baker is assisting her with the musical, which should aid Minogue quite a bit given that he was the director of the Rent revival on the West End in 2007 and produced a TV documentary about Minogue back in 2007.

At the moment the musical lacks a title and the role of Minogue has not been awarded to anyone or even gossiped about, but according to the starlet herself she will not tackle the role.

However, Minogue has stated that it will not tell her exact life story, but will instead tell the story of her music and be a live interpretation of her songs. In other news, she also has a new record on the way in July called Aphrodite.

Swedish Princess cancels royal wedding

Alan — Wed, 28 Apr 2010 12:13:51 +0000

A major European row wedding has been cancelled following revelations from a Bournemouth student that she had a one night stand with Jonas Bergstrom who was the fiancé of Sweden’s Princess Madeleine.

The 31-year-old Bergstrom is said to have had the fling with a 21-year-old student from the Arts University College, Tora Uppstrom Berg. The alleged encounter was said to have happened at an up market Swedish ski resort nightclub.

Miss Uppstrom Berg has subsequently told all to Se Og Hor, a Swedish ‘Hello’ type magazine. Following this the 27-year-old Princess Madeleine quickly cancelled the wedding plans, which had followed an eight year romance with Bergstrom.

Uppstrom Berg had previously been a handball star on the Norwegian team before becoming a student in the UK. She said in a magazine that she and the Royal Yonsei had left a nightclub in a taxi at four in the morning and that they had been intimate and that she had not known who he was.

She went on to say that if she had known that he was engaged, especially to a member of the Swedish royal family she would never have agreed to the encounter. The young Swedish royals are not exactly strangers to controversy as her brother Prince Carl Philip is currently dating a reality TV show star who is known for her modelling and topless appearances.

The whole country was already giving up for the Royal wedding so this news comes as a great shock to the nation. It is sad that the Princess has run away to New York to avoid the publicity storm in her home country.

Simon Cowell wedding bigger than Charles and Di?

Alan — Wed, 24 Mar 2010 05:06:23 +0000

Simon Cowell, the chief judge and creator of X Factor, is used to creating publicity so that he stays in the spotlight, but even Cowell is likely to be surprised by how many people are interested in the fact that he proposed to Mezhgan Hussainy, a36 year old makeup artist. In fact, some media analysts have gone as far as to predict that his impending nuptials may draw more interest than the wedding of Prince Charles and Princess Diana.

A new report in fact states that celebrities and business tycoons are already lining up offering their services so that they can garnish some publicity from the event, with some even pushing for a live televised wedding.

Many of the offers include freebies such as celebrity chef’s offering to cater the wedding for free, the free use of luxury yachts for the wedding, and even street vendor merchandising of wedding memorabilia, which is estimated to generate around £30m from the wedding.

Stylist for American Idol, Miles Siggins, stated that the entire country has gone nuts about the impending nuptials, and that he is due to get married this autumn; in an event that Donald Trump would be envious of.

However, even though there is a lot of hoopla about the wedding, a source that is close to the couple says that they do not plan on making a massive event out of the wedding and plan to keep it simple and small, with just their close family and friends.

Katie Price ties the knot in Vegas

Alan — Sat, 06 Feb 2010 07:58:20 +0000

Glamour model Katie Price finally got married to her cagefighter fiancé of the last months, Alex Reid in a quickie Las Vegas ceremony on Tuesday night that the pair kept quiet from everyone, including their parents.

Although Price’s marriage to Peter Andre was quite lavish in 2005, this time she kept it small with only a limited number of guests and of course a few television channels and paparazzi.

An official statement from the pair read that they are delighted to announce that they were married in Las Vegas on February 2^nd at 4pm. According to the couple, they are in love and looking forward to celebrating their nuptials with family and friends.

After their ceremony the couple headed back to their $10,000 per night penthouse, which proves that you do not need a lavish wedding if you have a lavish honeymoon suite.

A source close to the pair said that Price was extremely excited and that she is in love with Reid who is excellent with her children.

Price and Reid are thought to have offered a one million pound deal for exclusive wedding pictures, which occurred less than a year after she left Andre.

Reid’s parents have spoken out to the press saying they are happy for their son and that they had no idea that the couple was going to get married until just a few hours before it happened. His parents added that they were not disappointed they missed the wedding, but glad that the couple is happy.
