Gareth Bale considers holding wedding in New York so fiancee’s jailed dad can attend
Footballer's soon to be father-in-law is currently on remand in the US for fraud
WELSH footie ace Gareth Bale is considering holding his wedding in New York so his fiancee Emma’s jailed dad can attend.
Martin Rhys-Jones is on remand in the US and faces a decade in prison after pleading guilty to a £2m shares fraud, conning 250 people.
But he could get a weekend break for Emma’s nuptials if he maintains good behaviour.
A friend said: “Gareth grew up knowing Martin and is close to him.
“Obviously they would love to have the wedding in Wales — but it’s important to him and Emma Martin is there too.”
Gareth, 27, proposed to childhood sweetheart Emma, 26 last week.
The couple have two daughters, three-year-old Alba Violet and Nava Valentina who was born in March earlier this year.
