Lily Allen married her fianc Sam Cooper this weekend at a church near her Gloucestershire home, but she had double the reason to celebrate.

An overjoyed Sam also announced that Lily was pregnant in front of family and friends at the couple's wedding breakfast on 11 June.

Lily's dress designer, Delphine Manivet, later confirmed the pregnancy, saying:

"It's beautiful that she is pregnant, and I am very happy for her."

"You can see of course the little stomach - it looked very cute with the dress.

"For me, and for her too, when you're pregnant you want to show that, but also be respectful, so the dress was perfect for her for that moment."

The 26-year-old married builder Sam at St James the Great Church near Stroud and was given away by her father, actor and musician, Keith Allen.

The service was attended by fewer than 100 guests, including comedians Harry Enfield and Angus Deayton.

Lily carried a bouquet of white roses and was accompanied by former T4 presenter and childhood friend, Miquita Oliver, who was one of her bridesmaids.

The couple, who have been together since 2009, paid for extra policing on the day.

Lily tragically suffered a miscarriage back in November of last year, six months into her pregnancy.
