Former Westlife<\/a> star Brian McFadden<\/a> has married for the third time, tying the knot with long-term partner Danielle Parkinson in a romantic beachside ceremony in Cornwall<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The 44-year-old Irish pop singer, who rose to fame in the late 1990s as 1\/5 of one of Ireland\u2019s biggest boybands, said \u2018I do\u2019 to Danielle in front of close friends and family in a picture-perfect coastal celebration.<\/p>\n

Brian and Danielle, who share three-year-old daughter Ruby, kept the ceremony intimate and relaxed, exchanging vows barefoot on the sand with the sea as their backdrop. <\/p>\n

Friends described the natural, laid-back setting as \u2018perfectly them.\u2019<\/p>\n

Danielle, a PE teacher from Manchester, looked radiant in a simple, elegant gown with her hair styled in soft waves.<\/p>\n

Brian opted for relaxed beachwear with a formal twist rather than a traditional tux.<\/p>\n

While the beach celebration in Cornwall was their most public celebration, it followed a legal wedding held earlier in Ireland, closer to Brian\u2019s roots in Dublin. <\/p>\n

The pair reportedly wanted a second ceremony to mark the occasion with their loved ones in a place they often holiday as a family.<\/p>\n

After announcing their marriage, friends and fans were quick to congratulate them, with Towie’s Gemma Collins commenting: \u2018Congratulations!\u2019<\/p>\n

Fellow Irish pop duo Jedward also said: \u2018The vibes are perfection’, while former bandmate Ronan Keating\u2019s wife, Storm, added: \u2018Congratulations guys!\u2019<\/p>\n

This marks Brian’s third marriage, as he was previously married to Atomic Kitten singer Kerry Katona, with whom he shares two daughters<\/a>, Molly and Lilly-Sue.<\/p>\n

Their relationship was all over the media in the Noughties but ended in divorce in 2004. <\/p>\n

Kerry has said nothing but lovely things about her ex-husband\u2019s new beau, sharing that she ‘gets on really well’ with Danielle: ‘I think I might have a girl crush on her. I always go off of what my girls say for a stepmum, and she’s the best stepmum.<\/p>\n

‘On Mother’s Day, I sent her a message. I went, “Happy Mother’s Day, Danielle.” I think she’s lovely, and they’ve got a beautiful little girl, Ruby.\u2019<\/p>\n

‘I wish them nothing but joy and happiness,’ she added on the podcast Meeting\u2026 Kerry Katona.<\/p>\n

Brian married Irish model and presenter Vogue Williams<\/a> in 2012, but the pair split three years later.<\/p>\n

Vogue went on to marry Made in Chelsea\u2019s Spencer Matthews, with whom she shares three kids.<\/p>\n

Brian\u2019s relationship with Danielle has been notably more private than his last. They started dating in 2016, having met through mutual friends, and have largely stayed out of the spotlight.<\/p>\n

However, the newlyweds share occasional glimpses of their life together on social media.<\/p>\n

Alas, their relationship hasn’t all been rainbows and roses, as they had a difficult journey to parenthood, with Danielle suffering two miscarriages.<\/p>\n

Brian and Danielle were open about their struggles with fertility and went through IVF before welcoming Ruby in 2021.<\/p>\n

At the time, Brian described the moment as \u2018life-changing\u2019 and praised Danielle\u2019s strength.<\/p>\n

Now, with a new chapter officially underway, the couple appear more in love than ever. <\/p>\n

While Brian is best known for his time in Westlife<\/a>\u2014with global hits like Flying Without Wings, Swear It Again, and World of Our Own\u2014his post-boyband life has taken many forms.<\/p>\n

After leaving the group in 2004 to pursue a solo career, he dabbled in TV presenting, reality shows, and musical theatre.<\/p>\n

In recent years, he\u2019s taken a step back to focus on family and live performances.<\/p>\n

Despite the fame and the public breakups of the past, Brian has credited Danielle with bringing balance to his life.<\/p>\n

In interviews, he\u2019s called her his \u2018rock\u2019 and described her as the most supportive partner he\u2019s ever had.<\/p>\n

Danielle, meanwhile, is a former heptathlete who has built a career in education and fitness.<\/p>\n
