WEDDING – Steph McGovern has revealed why she wasn’t present at her friend Carol Kirkwood’s wedding over Christmas.
The presenter, 41, worked with Carol during her time at BBC Breakfast, however she wasn’t amongst guests who attended Carol and her husband Steve Randall’s celebrations.
The weather woman, 61, chose to have a very private wedding and kept the guest list minimal.
Her Reason
Carol said at the time: ‘It was a tiny wedding but so romantic and intimate. A day we will never forget. We are bursting with happiness. It wasn’t a ”secret” wedding, just a private one.’
In a recent interview, Steph, explained: ‘It was very private. Carol and I are very very close friends, in fact, I was there the day she met Steve!’
She continued: ‘They did the best thing ever and just took themselves off, didn’t tell any of us, got married and then told us all afterwards.
‘We were all so buzzing because I love her to bits and I’m so pleased she’s so happy and the pair of them are gorgeous.’
After Carol revealed she had tied the knot to her fans back in December, Steph sent her love to her friend.

Carol previously confessed she planned to wed Steve in secret before ‘[telling] everyone later.’
