Ashley and Sharon's big day took place in Rome (Instagram)"Loads of her family live there and it’s very romantic – it’s going to be a very special day. They have put lots of money into it but they have only invited close friends and family. As a couple, they have been very private so they don’t feel the need for a flashy, public wedding."
The pair also have two children together - a boy and a girl named Jaxon and Grace. Cole gave an insight into his family life recently and revealed that it was a huge departure from his playing career. While reality TV star Sam was happy to join in the wedding celebrations for Ashley and Sharon, she reckons she's grateful she's not married to her partner.
Speaking about their plans for the future, Sam, who celebrates her 10 year anniversary with Paul Knightley this year, said: “I actually feel grateful we’re not married at the moment. Now we’ve got Edward, I’d look back and be sad he wasn’t part of the wedding or in any of our wedding pictures or videos. I feel like it was meant to happen for me this way and I’m fine with it.
"I know that we’ve always joked over the years and even on The Mummy Diaries – ‘When is the proposal? You need to marry her,’ blah blah. I don’t feel like that. We’ve done the hardest part of a relationship – having three children, working together, living together – and we’ve moved about nine times,“ reports OK! magazine.
