When did they get married?

Laura and Alex tied the knot in 2012 in Surrey and their nuptials was heavily themed around several of their favourite movies.

Laura walked down the aisle to Ice Dance from the film Edward Scissorhands, while at the reception, the newlyweds entered the room to the theme tune from Rocky.

As the night went on at the reception, Laura serenaded her new husband with a rendition of Whitney Houston's Saving All My Love For You.

Laura spoke to about her big day, revealing: "The day was perfect in every way. Even better than I imagined it would be. I feel more complete now."

Husband Alex echoed his wife's sentiments, explaining: "The wedding was unbelievable, the most memorable day of our lives. It just cements our love for one another."

Laura also explained why their wedding was so film-themed; "Alex and I both love film scores. I didn't want something traditional; it didn't feel right. When I heard Ice Dance it sounded magical, then when I found out the name, it was so appropriate."

The wedding saw a number of famous faces attend, with Amanda Lamb, Michelle Heaton and Jeff Brazier, as well as Jayne Torvill and Sam Attwater, Denise Welch and Elen Rivas all arriving to celebrate Laura's big day.

Do they have any children?

Together, Laura and Alex share two children - their seven-year-old son Rocco alongside their five-year-old daughter Tahlia.
