Mabel marries fiancé Preye Crooks after splashing out on an incredible London venue with 150 guests including celebrity attendees
The singer, 29, tied the knot with the music executive after spending five figures on hiring the ictoria and Albert Museum in Chelsea to host 150 guests.
According to the Sun, guests including Miquita Oliver and her mother Andi partied the night away drinking drinking champagne and margaritas.
An insider told the publication: 'It was quite an intimate affair initially — they had a nice dinner with their closest friends and family to kick things off.
'Then more of their loved ones turned up to celebrate with them in style later in the evening. They all had a brilliant time and Mabel and Preye looked so in love.'
The venue typically costs around £10,000 to hire for wedding parties.
The couple got engaged in November last year. Preye is the son of former Spurs footballer Garth Crooks.
After Preye popped the question, she proudly showed off her sparkling diamond ring in a video online.
They celebrated with a huge party as the couple were joined by family and friends, with one pal sharing a glimpse of the bash to TikTok.
Mabel, who's full name is Mabel Alabama-Pearl McVey, looked sensational in a pink silk gown and couldn't wipe the smile off her face as she showed off her huge diamond ring which was custom-designed at Jewelry Palace - a family owned company in Los Angeles.
Meanwhile Preye, who has been dating the singer since 2021, cut a dapper figure as he made a speech to mark the occasion.
The couple looked happier than ever as they slow danced surrounded by rose petals and candles while their guests cheered.

Whenever you spoke about her, I knew you really loved her. It was very clear from the start, just how deeply you felt for her. With any and everything you did, you put her first and I learnt a lot from you in that sense and I'm blessed to have seen your relationship blossom and fluorish 😁 To happily ever after for you both 😁💍🖤🤞🏾

In the gushing post their friend Fet Bakare wrote: 'Whenever you spoke about her, I knew you really loved her. It was very clear from the start, just how deeply you felt for her'.
'With any and everything you did, you put her first and I learnt a lot from you in that sense and I'm blessed to have seen your relationship blossom and fluorish, To happily ever after for you both'.
Sony music A&R Preye also runs the Strawberries & Creem Festival and is the son of former BBC sports pundit Garth Crooks, 66.
Meanwhile Mabel is the daughter of Swedish singer Neneh Cherry, who has released six studio albums; the first of which, Raw Like Sushi, reached number three in the UK Albums chart.
She has been nominated for a Grammy Award and has two Brit Awards under her belt - and while her daughter Mabel is certainly catching up to her mother, the young singer hasn't quite reached Neneh's heights yet.
Her debut single Finders Keepers, released in 2017, reached number eight on the UK Singles Chart.
This was followed up two years later with the release of her album High Expectations at number three in the Albums Chart - which later went platinum.
In 2020, just three years after bursting onto the scene, she won a Brit Award for British Female Solo Artist.
In 2018, her musician mother Neneh spoke about nurturing her daughter Mabel in the music industry, revealing she is in awe of her.
The songstress spoke of the then 21-year-old's success and reflected on motherhood, in an interview with the Evening Standard Magazine admitting she wasn't always 'emotionally accessible'.
She said: 'Mabel is unbelievable and so focused and it's hard out there.
'She gets up sometimes and she's doing two or three sessions a day. I'm in awe of her and so I try to support her with basic mum things, like making her a take-out lunch.'
Mabel previously insisted she doesn't want her parents' help when it comes to her own music career.
'When I was in my teens, and was like, 'I really want to do music',' she told the publication. I felt quite embarrassed by being my mum and dad's daughter. I thought, 'People will never take me seriously'.'

Jenna Ortega changes into a sleek champagne silk gown after Wednesday premiere as she's joined by Catherine Zeta Jones
Jenna Ortega changed into a sleek champagne silk gown after the Wednesday premiere. The actress, 22, was joined by her co-stars Catherine Zeta Jones and Billie Piper for the event which took place aptly on Wednesday evening at Central Hall Westminster. For the premiere, Jenna looked incredible in a semi-sheer snakeskin gown that featured a fishtail skirt and burnt edges. But later that evening, she had an outfit change as she switched things up from the snakeskin gown. She looked effortlessly glamorous in a champagne silk midi-dress featuring chiffon panels. Jenna paired the gown with open-toed gold mules and accessorised with a black patent clutch bag and a silver diamond necklace. The actress, 22, was joined by her co-stars Catherine Zeta Jones as she left the venue later that night She was seen leaving the venue with her co-star Catherine, 55, who stars as Addams family matriarch Morticia, wore a dramatic backless gown with a highneck and key-hole cut out. She teamed the ruffled number with a pair of sheer heels, pulled her hair up into a bun and topped off her look with dark makeup. The gothic comedy, which follows the antics of Wednesday Addams (played by Jenna), debuted on the streaming service in November 2022. It was quickly renewed for a second series in January 2023. It is one in a series of takes over the years on The Addams Family, the eccentric fictional old-money clan, famously macabre and gothic in manner and look. The second series of the Emmy-winning programme, executive produced and often directed by horror icon Tim Burton, 66, is set for release on August 6. And now, it has been announced that not only will Wednesday be back for a third series, but a spin-off programme is currently under discussion, according to Hollywood Reporter. Fans were delighted to hear the fate of the beloved show has been secured, taking to social media to express their excitement. Catherine Zeta-Jones posted on Instagram confirming the news: 'When Wednesday comes a better day. But later that evening, she had an outfit change as she switched things up from the snakeskin gown 'Wednesday season three. It's official... we shall return.' One fan wrote in the comments section: 'And for many more seasons.'; 'I love this because then they can start filming soon and it won't be such a long pause between seasons! Or that's the hope!' The second series was announced in January 2023, but by the time it comes out later this year, it will have been more than two years in the making. The first series of Wednesday follows the titular troublemaker character after she is expelled and transferred to Nevermore Academy, a school for monstrous outcasts. Her cool, creepy manner and rebellious streak often see her in trouble and struggling to fit in. But after she discovers she is a psychic like her mother and applies her skills to solving a local murder case, she soon finds her stride. The programme boasts an impressive regular cast, with Game of Thrones' Gwendoline Christie and Narcos' Luis Guzman also starring. They feature as Nevermore headteacher Larissa Weems and Wednesday's father, Gomez Addams, respectively. The upcoming second series looks to be even more star-studded, with Lady Gaga, Joanna Lumley, Steve Buscemi, and Thandiwe Newton also joining the cast. Star Jenna and director Tim also worked together on Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, the 2024 sequel to the original 1988 horror film starring Winona Ryder.

The Assassin – Season 1 Episode 4 Recap & Review
The Yellow Letter Episode 4 of The Assassin starts where we left off with Edward shooting, but misses Damian. Luckily, the shot distracts Damian, giving Julie time to overpower him and take the gun. Julie shoots Damian in the stomach, making him beg for his life, saying he can help them disappear. Julie wants to kill Damian, but Edward thinks they should just leave since he is hurt and unarmed. They enter Damian's truck and drive to Athens, where Julie has a safe house. In France, Kayla arrives at their villa. Ezra tries to make a conversation, but Kayla wants to sleep. However, he piques her interest when he mentions that Jasper called about Chantaine. Ezra worries that they might be in danger, and the only way out is to figure out everything about Chantaine. He tells Ezra about seeing a letter Aaron hid in the safe, saying they might know something if they read it. Ezra says that regardless, they are secure in the house since Aaron has added security around the villa. Just then, one of the guards, Chris, receives a call from Marie after he sends him a considerable amount of money. Chris confirms that he's got the money and will update Marie once the job is done. In Athens, Julie makes a questionable meat sandwich, which Edward turns down. Sirus arrives carrying a pizza box, but inside there is no pizza, but guns. Julie chooses one, and Sirus leaves. Edward wonders why Julie needs another weapon, but she says it is for Edward to keep himself safe. Julie tries to teach Edward how to shoot, but it does not go well. Julie reminds Edward that the people after her, including Edward, will use anything to get to her. Kayla asks Aaron about the safe, the letter, and Chantaine in France. She makes Aaron open the safe, but the letter is no longer in there. Aaron says that there was no yellow envelope like Ezra had insinuated. He also adds that he did not put out a kill order for Kayla. She is his daughter and would never do anything to hurt her or Ezra. In Tripoli, Jasper tries to get to the boat and sneak out of Libya. He sees someone asking around for him, so he runs back and makes a phone call to Ezra again. Before he could tell him much, the person looking for him entered the shop, so Jasper cut the call short, promising to call back at five in the evening. Edward does not like running for the rest of his life. He storms out of the house to look for a telephone and calls Kayla. Kayla doesn't want to talk to him, but Ezra picks up the call. Meanwhile, the news report on the shooting in Greece names Edward and Julie as the main suspects. Ezra tells Edward about Chantaine and Jasper, so they agree that Edward should join the call later. After Edward hangs up the phone, he notices that the restaurant owner is on a call and sees his face on the news report. Edward rushes out but can't return to the safehouse because the police are everywhere. He runs up an abandoned building with the police on the trail. On the rooftop, Edward is trapped. He's forced to jump from one building to the next to escape the police. Meanwhile, Chris walks into Aaron's office and tries to shoot him. Aaron hides under his desk and calls for help. Ezra appears, overpowers Chris, and kills him by hitting his head with a statue. Aaron is impressed. About Chantaine, Aaron tells Ezra that he should make Kayla stop asking about it because it would be the end of everything they have built if he ever got out. Aaron also tells him he should stay vigilant because he will take over the empire when the time is right. Back at the safe house, Julie is relieved when Edward makes it back. They feel closer as Edward hugs her, excitedly discussing jumping across buildings. Julie asks for Edward's opinion on what they should do next. Edward tells her about Jasper and says they should wait for his call to learn what Chantaine is about before they plan their next moves. When Jasper calls Ezra, he connects the call to Edward. Jasper proves that he knows about Chantaine, saying that he blackmailed Aaron with it and was released from prison, and there are people after him. Since Athens is closer, Ezra promises to send Jasper some money so he can meet up with Edward and tell them what he knows. In France, Kayla keeps Aaron company after his brush with death. Aaron makes it his mission to find out who wants them dead. Kayla apologises for accusing Aaron of the hit on her. She pours Aaron a drink and spikes it with something. Meanwhile, Ezra is looking through his drug stash for Ketamine, which is what Kayla put in Aaron's drink. Ezra is high on the news about taking over CGM. He calls Marie to tell her all about it. Ezra also tells her about Edward's location when he meets Jasper. After ending the call, Ezra calls the number Marie had given and orders a hit on Jasper. Kayla helps a drunk Aaron back into the house, and he falls asleep on the sofa. Kayla uses the chance to search Aaron's office for the letter, finally finding it in Aaron's pocket. As she reads the letter, a look of horror is on her face. The next morning, Aaron is terrified to find that the letter and Kayla are missing. Julie organises new passports for her and Edward. The next morning, Edward meets with Jasper, who has managed to get to Athens by boat. Jasper becomes suspicious of Edward when he says he doesn't have the money. Edward tries to convince Jasper to follow him back to the safe house so they can figure everything out, but Jasper pulls out a knife. Julie watches their conversation closely and notices a suspicious woman heading towards them. Julie soon realises the woman is an assassin and shoots at her. Jasper and Edward run, and Julie chases after the woman. At the end of the episode, Julie chases after the woman and calls out to Edward. The Episode Review The stakes are slowly rising as we gear up for the finale. Aaron has been acting cross since we first met him. While he comes off as sincere, we are not sure if he is behind Kayla's assassination attempt. However, we know he wants Jasper dead. On the other hand, Marie wants Aaron dead, and she is willing to pay top dollar for it. I think it was ballsy of her to sleep with his son and get inside the house to plan her mission. Still, we don't know her motives. Damian underestimated Julie and learned a lesson. Never underestimate a mama bear, especially one who is a trained assassin! Although this is not ideal bonding, Edward and Julie are becoming closer. They are learning to depend on each other, but there are still many secrets between them. Ezra messed up when he called a hit on Jasper. Kayla found what she was looking for, but it might be better if she didn't know. Whatever it is, she looks extremely shaken by the contents of the letter.

The Assassin – Season 1 Episode 6 Recap, Review & Ending Explained
Spain Episode 6 of The Assassin starts with Edward walking up and Marie welcoming him home. It turns out they are in Spain, and so are Luka and Julie. Thanks to an old friend of Julie and Kayla's help, Luka got to Spain and found the necessary artillery for their mission. Kayla sends Julie a message, asking her to make contact as soon as possible. However, Julie has no plans of updating Kayla until everything is done. Meanwhile, Luca kind of feels jealous of Julie's old friend. Why did Marie take Edward? As it turns out, Marie is not Edward's biological mom. She and her husband, Jean-Luc, hired a surrogate. Jean-Luc put all his love and attention into Edward. Marie tolerated Edward because of her love for her husband. After Julie killed Jean-Luc, left Marie for dead and stole Edward, Marie vowed to get vengeance. However, she was in a coma until recently. Once she fully recovered, she put her action into plan. Now, she tells Edward about his father and how Aaron Cross had Jean-Luc murdered. Of course, she is heavy on how Aaron Cross is Kayla's dad. Meanwhile, Luka and Julie watch the house from afar, waiting for nightfall to attack. As they wait, Julie confesses she sometimes struggles with the killing. She learnt to see the targets as a job, and it became easier to live with. Does Julie save Edward? After sundown, Julie infiltrates the house while Luka hangs back and helps from afar. Luka already secretly contacted Kayla and informed her of their location. To save Edward, Kayla makes a deal with Ezra, who is now the new CEO of CGM. He agrees to help Edward as long as Kayla doesn't go public about their parents' mistake. Back in the house, Julie finds Marie's art and understands her pain. Still, she has to save Edward. Julie makes her way inside the house and sets a bomb in Marie's art room. She then proceeds to find Edward. At the same time, Edward uses Julie's infiltration as a distraction to attack Marie and escape. He randomly meets Julie in one of the hallways, and they confront each other. Julie apologises for hurting Edward, killing his dad, but asks him to trust her. She wants to get him to safety and leave for good. Unfortunately, Marie poisoned Edward, and this slows him down. As things start to look bleak for Edward and Julie, Kayla arrives with her bodyguards. Marie offers to give Edward the antidote if he kills Julie. Instead of killing Julie, Edward kills Marie. On the other side of the house, Luka confronts one of the assassins who killed his friends on the island. Luka is unable to kill the man, and Kayla's guys take the man. Kayla arrives in time to call for a helicopter to rush Edward to the hospital. Out of guilt, Julie refuses to accompany him to the hospital. As for Aaron, he died, but his lawyer questions whether Ezra had anything to do with his dad's death. How does The Assassin end? Three months after the whole ordeal, Edward, Kayla, and Julie sail across the world to meet Edward's biological mom. Somehow, Edward makes peace with Julie and gives her a chance. Later, Ezra burns his mom's letter. The Episode Review After six episodes, The Assassin comes to an okay conclusion. The writing manages to keep us engaged and entertained until the end. Overall, the acting, top-tier humour and the amazing cinematography and action scenes made this series worthwhile. At some point, if you are a fan of The Good Doctor, you will find it a bit strange to see Freddie playing a new character. However, he slays his role as Edward in this show. The ending wrapped up the big plots in the show. We know that Aaron didn't send assassins after his children. However, everything started after Aaron and his wife killed Jean-Luc. Even though their parents have a messy past, Edward and Kayla's love for each other is bigger than the sins of their parents. It looks like Ezra never learned the lesson and is continuing in his father's footsteps. If anything, he killed his dad to get the company.
