Des O'Connor has married for the fourth time, to girlfriend of 17 years Jodie Brooke Wilson.

The Australian singer gave birth to the TV presenter's fifth child three years ago, which O'Connor claims made him decide to tie the knot again.

The 75-year-old told Hello! magazine: "We didn't need to prove our commitment to one another, but Adam's arrival has changed everything. He is our greatest bond.

"His being here makes me take care of myself much more. I speed-walk or exercise every day.

"My father lived to be 95 so I've certainly got good genes."

Celebrity guests including Cilla Black, Bobby Davro, Carol Vorderman and Joe Pasquale attended the Berkshire wedding ceremony last week.
