TV3 star Alan Hughes has secretly married his partner Karl Broderick.
The pair previously had a civil ceremony for their partnership, but have now officially tied the knot.
Only Alanâs brother Kevin and Karlâs sister Ann were present as witnesses for their special day.
The couple decided to tie the knot officially, after Ireland voted to pass the same-sex marriage referendum in May last year.
â23 years ago today we metâ¦15 years later we had our civil ceremony,â Alan said.
âAnd because the Irish people said âYESâ, we can say âI Doâ. I couldnât be prouder marrying this gorgeous man,â he added.
âEveryone who meant anything to us attended our civil ceremony and we just wanted to do this for us,â Karl revealed.
âKeeping it secret was the hardest partâ¦Iâm so happy to marry the guy I love and respect so much.
âNow we can live happily ever after,â he added.
