Is this some sort of October Fools thing?

Apologies medro - was using my phone

I'll copy and paste instead

Comedian Patrick Kielty has ended months of speculation about his relationship with television presenter Cat Deeley by marrying her in a secret ceremony in Rome.

The wedding between the 41-year-old from Dundrum in County Down and his 35-year-old Birmingham-born fiancée took place at a church in St Isidore's College in Rome on Saturday.

The service was conducted by Belfast-based priest and friend Father Gary Donegan.

St. Isidore's College is a small church which can only accommodate about 100 people.

It says it provides "Catholic marriages for Irish couples".

The celebrity wedding had been a closely guarded secret, but would have been months in the planning as a number of documents are required by the Italian church before a wedding can go ahead.

Newspapers are reporting that Kielty was pictured afterwards wearing a dark coloured suit with an open necked white shirt, while his bride wore a white dress with frills. She wore a simple floral arrangement in her hair.

St Isidore's College is a 17th century building and part of the Irish Franciscan Province of the Order of Friars Minor.

Its history dates back to Friar Luke Wadding who was born in Waterford in 1588.

Friar Wadding had to go abroad to get a Catholic education because of religious persecution in Ireland.

He was later asked to take responsibility for a small unfinished Church and convent in Rome dedicated to the recently canonised Spanish farmer-saint and patron of agriculture, St Isidore of Madrid.

Friar Wadding was granted a free hand to set up a house of studies there for Irish Franciscans. He was considered by many Ireland's first ambassador to the Holy See.

 

I must protest in the strongest terms! Not that he has married both Byram and Deeley but that the banner headline refers to the fecker as a comedian! Kielty is about as funny as a dose of bad aids.

Byram could warm the cockles but Deeley is way too skinny, would be like trying to shag a bag of spoons.

 

yes and thats the end of the laughter.

 

Lovely story.

But what the hell is your point?

 

As I stated originally it sounds like a lovely ceremony- that is it.

Don't you agree?

 

How did he manage to get married in a catholic Church? He's divorced isn't he?

 

If he wasn't married in the church originally, the catholic church don't recognise it.

Probably that.

 

Ah yes of course - makes sense!

 

You'll probably find that they weren't allowed on the altar at the marriage either.....

 

I wouldn't have let him in the church never mind the altar - annoying little man! Mind, that's not a very inclusive, catholic attitude on my part so god probably hates me now......
