Billi was said to have been left furious by Andy's behaviour, with the two said to have had 'showdown' talks last week. But, on Sunday, they appeared to put all of the drama behind them as they said 'I do,' in front of friends and family at the sumptuous Four Seasons Hotel in Hampshire. Billi was shielded by umbrellas as she made her way into the ceremony, before showing off a stunning dress with ruffled sleeves and a matching statement veil.
Gateshead born footballer Andy, who played for West Brom for a spell last season, shared the first photo from his wedding on his Instagram account, showing him and Billi sharing a kiss. He chose a very short and simple caption to accompany it, writing: " 05-06-2022," along with a love heart emoji and Billi's Instagram handle.
