Robin Thicke marries April Love Geary in lavish sun-soaked ceremony

Daily Mirrora day ago

Robin Thicke and his long-term fiancé April Love Geary have finally tied the knot seven years after the Blurred Lines singer popped the question for the first time
Congratulations are in order for Robin Thicke and his long-term fiancé April Love Geary, who tied the knot yesterday.
Robin, 48, and April, 30, got married in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico surrounded by their family and friends to celebrate their big day. April, who looked stunning in a white laced dress and veil reposted pictures and videos from guests to her Instagram story.

Alongside a photo of the happy couple, one guest penned: "I love, love. Especially real, raw, resilient love." In the picture, Robin could be seen wearing a black suit with a white flower lapel.

In one video, an empty chair on the front row could be seen with a sign that read: "In Loving Memory Of Alan Thicke." The seat was left empty for the singer's father, Alan who died in 2016.
Another snippet from the big day adorably showed the couple's son Luca Patrick, four, walking down the aisle with his dad as ring bearer.

Matching his dad in a black tux, two-year-old Luca held a brief case which read: "Ring Security". Robin and April are also parents to daughters Mia Love, seven, and Lola Alain, six.
Robin originally proposed to April in December 2018, while the model was pregnant with their first child, Mia. In a picture posted on social media, an overjoyed April could be seen smiling in front of a Christmas tree. 'YES YES 1000x YES,' she wrote at the time.

The proposal came four years after the pair met at a party in 2014. The couple made their debut at the Cannes Film Festival in 2015, two months after Thicke's divorce with his ex-wife Paula Patton was finalised.
Fittingly, the Magic singer re-proposed to his then fiancé in Cannes just days before they tied the knot in Mexico.

Announcing the news five days ago in a joint post with fiancé Robin, April shared a photo dump of the engaged couple dressing in all-white attire while standing on the step of the Hôtel du Cap-Eden-Roc in Cannes, France.
"Robin surprised me during our trip to Cannes by proposing to me again with a new ring that one of my best friends @nikkiwhatnikkiwho @establishedjewelry made, I'm so obsessed with it, thank you!!!," she wrote in the caption.
"This trip was such a dream. I love you so much @robinthicke Also a huge thank you to @alilasky for clearing out the whole area and making sure there wasn't a single person getting in the way."

The pair said their vows to each other yesterday, in front of their close family and friends. Their elaborate ceremony took place at the five-star hotel The Langley in Iver, Buckinghamshire, the former manor home of the third Duke of Marlborough. Set in 150 acres of parkland grounds, her former EastEnders actor father Danny Dyer, 47, walked his daughter down the aisle. Dani previously told how she was an "emotional wreck" just hours before the ceremony.

Her close fan and fashion stylist Ellis Ranson posted a behind-the-scenes video with the glam squad on her Instagram story.

A separate image shows father of the bride Danny, 47, looking out of the window at the gorgeous venue with his grandchildren. He kept close by Dani and Jarrod's twin daughters, as well as her son Santiago, aged four, from a previous relationship. How Dani Dyer transformed her reputation The daughter of everyone's favourite EastEnders geezer Danny, is currently living the high life. But Dani has had a rollercoaster few years, from her Love Island win back in 2018, to watching her son's father Sammy Kimmence go to prison for fraud, and now navigating her glamourous new life as a WAG and mother of twin babies. In recent years, Dani has completely shaken off the 'chav' persona, and has become one of the most well-known of the current England WAGs. Fabulous spoke to celebrity PR expert Ed Hopkins to find out the key steps Dani has taken to reinvent herself, including the tips she has borrowed from iconic WAG Cheryl Cole. Ed revealed that Dani's ability to navigate personal challenges, such as the scandal involving Sammy, has greatly played a crucial role in her reinvention. Ed said: "By openly discussing her struggles and triumphs, she has built a strong, relatable persona. "Her transparency about her personal life, including solo parenting and dealing with public scrutiny, has garnered significant public support and empathy." He also shared that Dani's openness in discussing the challenges of motherhood, has helped to transform her reputation. Ed said: "This openness has made her more relatable to a broader audience, particularly young mothers. She balances her public image by sharing both the joys and hardships of parenting, creating a more nuanced and authentic brand." Dani is often seen supporting West Ham winger Jarrod, including during England's devastating loss to Spain in the 2024 Euros. Her unwavering support for her partner, has cemented her as one of the most well-known WAGS of this generation, according to Ed. He said: "Her active support for Jarrod, including attending football matches and engaging with fans, mirrors the strategies used by high-profile WAGs like Cheryl Cole and Victoria Beckham, who also stood by their partners publicly and built their own identities alongside them." Not only this, but Ed revealed that Dani has been able to stay relevant over the years due to her candid use of social media. He said: "Dani has consistently used media platforms to share her narrative, from interviews to social media updates. "She has managed to stay relevant by engaging with her followers through candid posts and professional collaborations. "This approach is reminiscent of how Victoria Beckham transitioned from pop stardom to a respected fashion designer, using media to reframe her public image." The little girls were seen in adorable white dresses with bow detail on the back after they played an important role as flower girls during the ceremony. Their big brother Santi, who acted as a page boy with Jarrod's little brother, stood sandwiched between them in a white shirt and dark trousers. 6 The pair said 'I do' in front of an assembled group of family and friends Credit: Instagram 6 The duo were on cloud nine as they celebrated at the five-star hotel, The Langley in Iver, Buckinghamshire, Credit: Instagram

Love Island 'signs gym enthusiast' who's undergone major transformation

With the 2025 season of Love Island now just days away, increasing reports are emerging to suggest exactly who will be entering the villa - with a football fan the latest to be linked to the show Love Island casting agents have enlisted a "cheeky chappy" to take part as a contestant in the upcoming 2025 season of the long-running ITV reality dating show. A gym enthusiast named Tommy Bradley has been reported as cast in the upcoming new season, which will be the 12th to air over the past decade. The Londoner, who appears to be an avid fan of Tottenham Hotspur, is said to have undergone a dramatic body transformation in preparation for his time in the villa. He will be flown to the Mediterranean, where he stands to find love with any number of beautiful women enlisted to join the contestants in the main house - or those who plan to wreck romances in the inevitable Casa Amor phase of the show. ‌ It is reported that show bosses hope Tommy can bring some humour to the series as he is being described as a "cheeky" contestant. While ITV is yet to unveil the cast of the upcoming new season of their reality show, which airs on June 9, reports of potential contestants have become rife in recent days. ‌ A source told The Sun:"Tommy seems to tick all the Love Island boxes as the cheeky chappy of this summer's series. He looks to enjoy a night out with the lads and out on the boxing scene with his brother. "But he's also packed on serious muscle over the last year, ready for telly's famous villa and is no longer just a personality hire. Execs are finalising who will be in the OG line-up and who will be a bombshell." ‌ The Mirror has contacted ITV for comment. While photos shared by Tommy via Instagram paint him as a classic tanned, toned and smily potential Islander. Love Island is just over a week away from returning to screens, with an official synopsis reading: "A fresh batch of singles prepare for the summer of a lifetime in the ultimate search for love, with host Maya Jama overseeing proceedings at the villa in Majorca." Maya Jama has been teasing the upcoming new season - which marks 10 full years since the series first returned in 2015 with the late Caroline Flack as the host. The new season is set to kick off on Monday 9 June - and it could be the most dramatic season of all time. ‌ An advert for the returning show has been unleashed showing Maya sat in a brain storming session trying to think up new ways to keep viewers engaged on the show. The clip was shared via Instagram with a caption stating: "To the hottie this may concern, as per the last 11 Series, we're staying loyal to the entertainment. "Moving forward, we'll be levelling up on the twists. The stakeholders are aligned, the Islanders will be laying it on Factor 50, and we're on track to hit our KPI on drama. It's time to crack on and deliver serious results. Let's circle back soon. Warmest wishes x." ‌ The footage showed Maya saying to the team: "This year Love Island needs something bigger, something bolder. I want ideas." One of the team suggests: "Move it to the Isle of Wight?" But this prompted an unimpressed expression from Maya. Another suggested: "What if we turned it into a musical?" Only for Maya to ask: "Why?" Another suggested: "Love Island, on ice?" But Maya hit back, saying: "Never." And when the suggestion of including robots is made, she yells: "No!" Addressing the camera, and seemingly anyone who does want to take part in the show, she says: "This year I want more drama, more bombshells, more break-ups, more make-ups. I want more twists. I want more twists than ever." The series is set to return on ITV2 on Monday 9 June at 9pm - with footage then airing on ITV1 from 10:45pm following the conclusion of the 2025 launch episode.

Ncuti Gatwa shares emotional post after leaving Doctor Who

Gatwa's 15th Doctor regenerated in Saturday's finale (May 31), and regenerated into the returning Billie Piper. In a statement provided by the BBC, the Scottish-Rwandan actor said the "journey has been one that I will never forget". Now, he has shared a social media post thanking co-stars Millie Gibson and Varada Sethu. Gatwa regenerating in his final episode of Doctor Who (Image: BBC Studios/Bad Wolf/PA) Ncuti Gatwa shares emotional post after leaving Doctor Who Gibson played Ruby Sunday and was the main companion in Gatwa's first series as the 15th Doctor. Her character appeared less frequently in the second series, with Varada Sethu's Belinda Chandra taking the mantle as the new companion. Taking to Instagram, Gatwa shared a picture of the trio, and said: "Three queens of the sky, "Twas an experience like no other and thank God we were by eachothers side. "There aren't quite the words for how much you both mean to me but I am so grateful I got the opportunity to work, learn from and laugh with you both everyday. "You're both just simply incredible and it has been nothing short of a blessing to share this journey with both of you. "Ruby Sunday and Belinda Chandra will live in mine and the Whoniverse hearts forever. "Also shout out to the CAPTAIN of all 15's companions. Captain Poppy. Ultimate top dog of this season! (lil Sienna brought so much life and magic to us all on set ) I love you guys. We did it." It was the first of two Instagram posts Gatwa has shared since his exit. The second was a picture of himself in the TARDIS, with the caption: "Monsters, goblins, gods, human-eating Slugs, invisible brain-altering creatures, evil barbers, conspiracy theorists… you've had quite a busy two years. Well done and rest up son. "@bbcdoctorwho @disneydoctorwho @russelltdavies63 @bad_wolf_tv Thank you endlessly. XV." Doctor Who: All Fifteen Doctors in Order In a statement released by the BBC, on his decision to leave, Gatwa said:'You know when you get cast, at some point you are going to have to hand back that sonic screwdriver and it is all going to come to an end, but nothing quite prepares you for it. 'This journey has been one that I will never forget, and a role that will be part of me forever. "There are no words to describe what it feels like to be cast as the Doctor, nor are there words to explain what it feels like to be accepted into this iconic role that has existed for over 60 years and is truly loved by so many across the globe. 'I've loved every minute of it, but now is the time to hand over the keys to that beloved blue box and let someone else take control and enjoy it every bit as much as I have. "I'll truly miss it, and forever be grateful to it, and everyone that has played a part in my journey as the Doctor.' Is Billie Piper the new Doctor on Doctor Who? After Gatwa's exit, the 15th Doctor is seen regenerating into Billie Piper. Piper, 42, first appeared in the series as the companion to the Ninth Doctor in 2005, playing Rose Tyler alongside Christopher Eccleston's Time Lord. She stayed on and was the companion to the 10th Doctor, played by David Tennant. However, despite her introduction on the show, it has not been confirmed she is the 16th Doctor. Some fans are also not convinced, with the end credits reading: "And introducing Billie Piper." Many compared this to when Ncuti Gatwa was introduced as the 15th Doctor, when it read: "And introducing Ncuti Gatwa as The Doctor." Previous actors have also received similar credit introductions. "Ncuti Gatwa as The Doctor" "Jodie Whittaker as The Doctor" "And introducing Billie Piper" ...but NO "as The Doctor" I FIND THAT VERY SUS. — Ben (He/Him) (@BenDW96) May 31, 2025 One said on X (formerly Twitter): "Billie Piper wasn't introduced as the Doctor, and this year was the 20th anniversary of Series 1... There's definitely more to this..." Another said: "She's clearly not the Doctor but some Bad Wolf shenanigans." Fueling speculation on her role in the show, Doctor Who TV simply says: "But just how and why she is back remains to be seen…" Recommended reading: On her return, Piper said: 'It's no secret how much I love this show, and I have always said I would love to return to the Whoniverse as I have some of my best memories there, so to be given the opportunity to step back on that Tardis one more time was just something I couldn't refuse, but who, how, why and when, you'll just have to wait and see.' Shortly after the finale aired, the actress shared a post on Instagram holding a rose with the caption that read: 'A rose is a rose is a rose !!!' If she is confirmed as The Doctor, Piper will be the second after Jody Whittaker's 13th Doctor.
