Rebecca Ferguson has married Jonny Hughes at her "dream venue" in London.
The former X Factor contestant and soul singer-songwriter said the "final puzzle piece" in her life is now in place after a ceremony at The Dorchester hotel. Rebecca, who grew up in Anfield, told Hello! that family members including her children Lillie, 18, Karl, 16, and eight-year-old Arabella attended her wedding to sports agent Jonny Hughes.
She said: "Years ago when I was starting out, I'd get the Megabus from Liverpool to London. It was cheap as chips. We used to drive past Park Lane. It was inspirational for me because I'd be looking at The Dorchester, thinking, 'One day I'll get to stay there.'

Rebecca said when she asked long-term couples how they knew they had "met the one", they said you "just know". She added: "I felt the same with Jonny. I could be myself around him." The full interview is in Hello! magazine, out now.
