A self-described “old romantic” took his girlfriend on a mystery holiday to Barbados, where he shocked her with a surprise proposal followed by a fully organised wedding just three days later.
Adam Blakey, 40, from Blackpool in Lancashire, whisked away his girlfriend of seven years, Victoria, 41, to the Caribbean island of Barbados in April, convincing her the trip was to celebrate his 40th birthday, when in reality he had organised a proposal and wedding without his wife’s knowledge.
