Sharing previously unseen photos from the ceremony in California on Tuesday (26 July), the Poosh founder captioned her Instagram post: “My special, sweet, chic, sophisticated, smart and most wonderful grandmother. Happy birthday my MJ” along with a heart emoji.

She revealed MJ was “one of the only two guests we had when we were legally married”, adding: “I will always remember this day and night with you.”
