Blue star Lee Ryan is married after secret wedding in Gibraltar to Ariana Grande lookalike Verity
LEE Ryan has secretly married girlfriend Verity Paris in a romantic Gibraltar ceremony, The Sun can reveal.
The Blue star tied the knot with singer Verity, who gave birth to their first child together last year, watched by friends and family earlier this week.
Newly-married Lee told The Sun: “I met someone finally who loves and supports me in everything I do.
“Verity is a beautiful, strong and loving woman who I treasure, and I’m a lucky man to have such a wonderful mother for my child, and now wife in her.
“I’ve never been more calm and grounded and I have Verity to thank for that. I’m the happiest I’ve ever been in my life because of the wonderful family life I now have.”
The couple, who have been together for two years, welcomed their daughter, whose name they haven’t publicly shared, in August last year.
