Former Sky Sports TV pundit Richard Keys, 66, has reportedly married his daughter's former best friend Lucie Rose after ending his 36-year marriage in 2016.
The ceremony, an outdoor civil affair, took place in Kingswear near Brixham, Devon, and was attended by a small group of close friends and family.
The couple was pictured standing amidst a garden adorned with white roses and other floral arrangements.
Rose wore a white wedding dress with lace detail and floral embellishments, as well as a full veil.
According to The Daily Mail, Richard's children, Jemma and Joshua, did not attend the wedding.
Richard Key marries 'daughter's friend', Lucie Rose
Richard was formerly married to Julia Keys, who is reported to have filed for divorce claiming adultery, alleging that Keys was involved with Lucie Rose when she was 28.
However, in 2019, Keys denied leaving his wife for Lucie Rose, who was battling cancer at the time.
Richard told The Athletic: "Did I leave my wife fighting cancer? No. I don’t know what happened.
“I don’t know why our marriage ended the way it did, but my wife was fighting cancer for seven years before I left her and she had been in remission for seven years.”
