Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel’s upcoming wedding is expected to be the biggest celebrity wedding of the year.
Unfortunately for the 31-year-old singer, famous for hits such as ‘Cry Me a River’, ‘Rock Your Body’ and ‘SexyBack’, will have to persevere as his beloved grandparents, Bill and SandyBomar, will be absent from the special event.
Former flame of Britney Spears Justin will press on with the wedding, despite his grandfather being disallowedby doctors from travelling to Italy for the wedding. Reportedly his grandfather is expected not to make a full recovery from his heart surgery in time.
Mr. Bomar will have surgery in autumn to treat him for health problems which he has suffered from for a number of years. Mrs. Bomar will also miss the wedding to support her husband as he recuperates.
Justin’s Grandmother Bomar said in a statement to Star magazine: “My husband, Bill, has had problems with his heart for a while now and is undergoing a major heart surgery soon. Bill also suffers from dementia, making it tough to care for him.”
She concluded: "Unfortunately, we won't be able to go to Italy."
Justin and Biel, 30, will hold their nuptials at the Palazzo Margherita in the Italian town of Bernalda. Director Francis Ford Coppola owns the hotel.
Bielrecently revealed that Justin has been organising the whole event on account of her being busy promoting her new film ‘Total Recall’.
Bielseems very confident about Justin’s ability to pick out flowers, decorations, and cakes, saying that Justin “does have incredible taste”, according to The Sun.
