BBC Breakfast's Carol Kirkwood, 61, reveals she's tied the knot with partner Steve Randall, 48

The newlyweds called the ceremony 'perfect'

BBC Breakfast's Carol Kirkwood has revealed she's tied the knot with her partner Steve Randall.

Carol, 61, has married Steve, 48, in a lovely Christmas wedding ceremony after he popped the question while they were on holiday together.

The newlyweds have been together since 2021 with Steve proposing to his now-wife in May of last year.

She first revealed her engagement live on BBC Breakfast from the Chelsea Flower Show back in 2022.

At the time, the Scottish weather presenter gave viewers a glimpse of her engagement ring during a weather forecast and said: "We went out for a picnic, I had absolutely no idea.

"The weather was glorious, we were sitting chatting... he was fumbling in his pocket and then out came a ring, I thought he was joking actually, I didn't believe him to start with."

The 'intimate' wedding took place just a couple days after Christmas Day (27 December) and the BBC star has since shared with fans a little more about the occasion.

Announcing the news on BBC Breakfast, Carol said it was 'the most perfect and romantic and intimate wedding'.

She added: "We are both so incredibly happy."

Carol also took to her X, formerly Twitter, account to share a message with fans following the ceremony.

Uploading four shots from the wedding day, she captioned the post: "Thank you so much for all your lovely messages.

"We had the most perfect day. It was a tiny wedding but so romantic and intimate. A day we will never forget. We are bursting with happiness."

She went on to add: "It wasn’t a 'secret' wedding, just a private one."

The programme has since shared their congratulations to the happy couple on Instagram, sharing two snaps from the wedding of Carol and Steve smiling from cheek to cheek.
