Celina Jaitley marries partner Peter Haag in Austria

Celina Jaitley has announced that she got married last week.

The Bollywood actor told her Twitter followers that she wed partner Peter Haag in a private ceremony in Europe.

Jaitley posted: "With great pleasure I would like to announce my wedding with @peterhaag on the 23rd of last month at a thousand year old monastery in Austria.

"We seek your blessings and good wishes, and apologise for the delayed announcement due to a family tragedy."

The star also shared images from the ceremony, which saw Jaitley wearing a floral sari and holding a bouquet of red roses.

The performer recently denied reports that she was a lesbian, following her high-profile support of the gay rights movement in India.

Jaitley was rumoured to have secretly married her hotelier boyfriend at a ceremony in Dubai last year.

The model-turned-actor, whose image has been compared to US singer Katy Perry, was last seen in 2011 ensemble comedy Thank You.
