The couple, who have five-month-old son Albie together, tied the knot at Cheshire's Scarlet Hall.

Speaking about their nuptials, Rebecca said: "The sun shone, the people we love were there and it was just the best day."

Rebecca was accompanied down the aisle by her six-year-old daughter Summer, who is from her first marriage to Harry Needs.

Summer acted as flower girl and ring-bearer for her mother, who surprised her new husband by playing Tom Odell's Grow Old With Me as she entered the ceremony.

Rebecca said: "We chose all the other music together, but I wanted one little thing that was a surprise for him.

"He kept trying to get it out of me, but I wouldn't break."

Speaking about the moment, Andy added: "The second it kicked in, I thought, 'Oh, you've really pushed me to the limit with this' and I felt my composure start to go."

Rebecca's bridal party also included fellow swimmers Joanne (Jo) Jackson and Tom Haffield, who carried little Albie down the aisle.

Rebecca, who won two gold medals at the 2008 Olympics - was previously married to Harry from 2014 to 2016.

The pair remain on good terms and Rebecca met Andy on dating app Bumble in 2018, before welcoming son Albie in March this year.
