Actress Danniella Westbrook tied the knot with businessman Kevin Jenkins on Thursday as her former EastEnders co-stars looked on. The couple, who have been together for one year, married amid tight security at the Conrad Hotel in Chelsea Harbour.
“Danniella looked absolutely stunning. Fantastic,” said Barbara Windsor, who plays Queen Vic bar owner Peggy Mitchell in the hit soap. The bride wore a white strapless gown with a floor-length veil, her hair held back with a diamond tiara.
Over 100 friends and family members, including EastEnders alums Michael Greco and Dean Gaffney, attended the exclusive wedding, which was followed by a reception at the hotel overlooking the marina. Big Breakfast star Denise Van Outen and Danniella’s five-year-old son Kai from a previous relationship were among the other guests.
The nuptials took place just months after Danniella, 28, and millionaire Kevin welcomed their first child together, Jody, a little girl born in September. This is the actress’ second marriage. Her first, to Ben Morgan, lasted just over 11 months.
