Katie Owen finished a 160-mile trip to Cardiff for her radio show. We’re not dancing as much without you, Katie. We care about you and wish you were here.”
She mentioned that after the ceremony, she took a train to Central Square and switched out of her wedding dress in the train restrooms. The place looked lovely with many Welsh flags. She left the after-party as people were coming in, which was difficult, but going to the studio felt great. It was really nice to make the first special announcement on BBC Radio Wales.

Jill Scott, a former Lioness and I’m A Celebrity winner, complimented their appearance and congratulated them, and singer Sophie Ellis Bextor shared her happiness and congratulations.
