The BBC’s Carol Kirkwood has tied the knot with her long-term partner Steve Randall, sharing the first look photos of her special day with viewers. “It was the most perfect and romantic and intimate wedding. We are both so incredibly happy,” she told BBC Breakfast.
The 61-year-old weather presenter looked breathtakingly beautiful for her intimate ceremony, which took place last Wednesday in Buckinghamshire. Carol, who has been a regular face on our screens since 1998, wore a satin wedding gown with a fitted waist and a striking Bardot neckline.
The princess-style gown boasted a full skirt and was perfectly paired with a simple silver necklace.
Carol styled her blonde locks in a classic updo, with loose curls framing her face. Her makeup look was glowing and natural, with a sweep of rosy blusher highlighting her cheeks and pink gloss on her lips.
Her partner Steve, 48, looked dapper in a black suit with a silver tie and a white rose pinned to his buttonhole.
Carol’s colleagues past and present were moved by the first-look photos, taking to Instagram to express their congratulations to the happy couple.
Dan Walker shared: “Congratulations to Carol and Steve. Steve is one very fortunate gentleman and Carol is the best of us all. She is kind, caring, brilliant at her job and a wonderful person to be around. I wish them every happiness in their new life together.”
Steph McGovern commented: “How gorgeous and happy do Carol and Steve look? Congratulations. So pleased for you both”.
Carol recently confessed she planned to wed Steve in secret before “[telling] everyone later” so it seems none of her colleagues were invited to her special day.
Whilst speaking to an audience at Good Housekeeping Live, she admitted that she should “get on with it”, adding: “I imagine we are just going to go and do it and tell everyone about it later.”
The TV star also opened up about her relationship with Steve, explaining that she wasn’t looking for romance when they first met.
“Steve came into my life when I was already very happy, I didn’t need a man in my life — but I want him in my life — and that’s the difference,” she said.
