BBC Antiques Roadshow star Theo Burrell has revealed she had finally married her partner Alex after 13 years together, celebrating their nuptials in Edinburgh on March 28.
The 38-year-old antiques expert, who has featured on the popular BBC programme since 2018, received a devastating grade four brain tumour diagnosis in June 2022.
Doctors informed her at the time that she had approximately two years to live, and she has been keeping her fans updated via her Instagram account.
Sharing the happy news, she uploaded an image of the couple looking lovingly at one another on their special day.

The television star has been open about her health struggles while continuing chemotherapy treatment.
When she received her diagnosis in June 2022, her son was only a year old, and medical professionals told her the tumour was "incurable aggressive" and would ultimately "return and kill me".
Shortly before Christmas, Ms Burrell learned her tumour had increased in size by 3cm, meaning she needed a second surgical procedure.
She subsequently revealed this operation had affected her eyesight and, in an effort to raise awareness, she shared images of her surgery scar with followers on social media.
