Celebrity Wedding

If you have looked at this site and noticed that there have not been any new celebrity stories for a while, here is the reason – we had our own celebrity wedding, followed by a secret honeymoon in Turkey.  No paparazzi were allowed into the church, and we turned down a six figure offer from Hello! magazine for the rights to the story.

Well, OK there were no offers from the gossip mags but I wanted the wedding to be a celebration that my own family can enjoy.  Have you noticed how the coverage in OK!  magazine only shows the stars, and never the bride and groom’s family?  While those moneymaking celebrity pictures are being taken, the B list guests have probably been herded into another room, where they cannot invade the shots of those beautiful soap stars.

Samatha Janus held her wedding at Claridge’s two weeks before ours.  Samantha lives in Muswell Hill, North London, where we lived until recently, and she dines often at my favourite local restaurant.  She leads a normal low key lifestyle in this north London suburb, where famous faces are not unusual.  What possessed her to sell the wedding story to OK magazine? It must have been a hefty paycheque to compensate for inviting some of the lowlife so-called Eastenders actors who turned her Claridge’s wedding into a debauched fiasco that would have embarrassed a real East End family. There were punchups, drunks, outfits that were too short and too tight – just what you would expect, really.  Samatha Janus’ real friends and family must have found the event memorable for all the wrong reasons.  David and Victoria Beckham were staying at Claridge’s on the evening of the Eastenders knees-up, and had no prior knowledge of the Eastenders wedding reception.  The OK! magazine staff did their best to involve them in the bash, but the Beckhams wisely kept their distance.  Here is a pic of the couple leaving Claridge’s in a taxi to dine outside the hotel.  Smart move by some true celebrities.
