Al's eldest, Courtney (L) is getting married

While Al can't wait to walk his firstborn down the aisle, he recently revealed there was one thing he was nervous about.

In a recent appearance on The Tamron Hall Show, the popular weatherman was chatting to host Tamron Hall, who asked the father-of-the-bride if he was nervous.

"It's an outside wedding, so I am a little nervous about the weather," he said. He then went on to say that he didn't want guests to complain about the weather or compare his daughter's big day to theirs.

"Like, don't make me take you out at my daughter's wedding," he joked.

Al gets on incredibly well with Courtney's fiancé, and described him as a "lovely young man".

He said: "They're terrific together, so this is an easy one. If the other two meet folks that are just as nice as Wes with families that are just as nice, then I am a blessed man."

The father-of-three shares Courtney, 34, with first wife Alice Bell, and is also dad to children Leila, 22, and Nick, 16, who he shares with wife Deborah Roberts.
