More than a dozen fans headed to the venue to stand outside in order to catch a glimpse of the stars.

Britain’s Got Talent presenter McPartlin has been with his fiancée since 2018, with the pair getting engaged on Christmas Eve in 2020.

They got together after he separated from make-up artist Lisa Armstrong, his wife of 11 years, earlier in 2018.

According to reports, McPartlin and Corbett had initially been planning to marry abroad.

However, they eventually decided to host the ceremony in the UK because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Corbett, who previously worked as McPartlin’s personal assistant, has two daughters from her relationship with ex-husband Scott Corbett.

McPartlin, from Newcastle-upon-Tyne, has described her as his “rock” after she supported him following his 2018 drink-driving arrest and stint in rehab.
