Konnie Huq and Charlie Brooker  Marry

Konnie Huq and Charlie Brooker have confirmed they have married in Las Vegas, describing themselves as ‘blissfully happy’. The former Blue Peter presenter, 35, and TV critic, 39, eloped to Nevada’s Sin City earlier this month during a gap in filming for Huq’s new role as host of The Xtra Factor.

Following reports over the weekend they had wed in a small ceremony over a week ago, her spokeswoman confirmed today they were now husband and wife.

The presenters have always seemed a slightly strange pairing, but they defied the sceptics by getting engaged a few months ago. A source told the Mail On Sunday newspaper that Charlie didn’t want a big, tacky celebrity wedding because he doesn’t see him and Konnie as a celebrity couple. ‘They are very much in love but when it came down to it, he wanted the wedding to be low-key.’

Huq and Brooker were friends for years and regularly bumped into each other at industry events, but only started dating late last year.

Some of the most famous outfits worn by Grace Kelly, the most elegant leading lady of her era, are to go on display in a new exhibition at the V&A museum in London.  Grace Kelly was the ultimate style icon and this exhibition will showcase her glamour and style as she lived her life, as one of Hollywood’s most popular actress, and moving on to become Princess Grace of Monaco.

The exhibition will be split into three sections; ‘The Actress,’ ‘The Bride’ and ‘The Princess,’ and spans fashion across four decades. The ‘Bride section’ will focus on the dress Grace Kelly wore for the announcement of her engagement to Prince Rainier and the clothes designed for her trousseau and dazzling wedding, in 1956.

Also featured are over 50 of Grace Kelly’s outfits, including some of the most beautiful dresses and outfits worn by the leading lady. Eight dresses by Christian Dior, an extravagant, beaded Balenciaga jacket, Yves Saint Laurent’s ‘Mondrian’ dress of 1965, Coco Chanel suits jewellery by Van Cleef & Arpels, and, of course, the famous, original Hermès ‘Kelly’ bag are all to be displayed.

The exhibition opens in London on the 17th April.
