Rio Ferdinand and Kate Wright will reportedly marry this weekend.
The 40-year-old former footballer is expected to tie the knot with the 28-year-old beauty some time over the next few days after jetting out to a £4,000-a-night resort in Turkey with their loved ones.
However, the couple – who got engaged last November – are keen to keep their big day private so will be taking measures to ensure guests don’t share pictures on social media.
A source told The Sun newspaper: "All their family and friends are already there. Phones have been taken from everyone — nobody has one."
Kate previously admitted she feels "very lucky" to be marrying Rio – who lost his ex-wife Rebecca Ellison in 2015 to breast cancer when she was just 34 – and can’t wait to walk down the aisle.
She said: "I hoped I’d get married at some stage, so obviously I’m very happy and excited about that.
"It hasn’t panned out exactly how I imagined when I was a kid. Like most young girls I had the typical fairy tale in mind, but this is my own fairy tale. I can’t complain at all. I feel very lucky."
The former ‘TOWIE’ star has a "very equal" partnership with Rio, and the pair were sharing the planning of their nuptials.
Kate – who has been stepmother to the former sportsman’s three children since they embarked on their relationship – said: "Rio and I are very equal. We share control on everything we do in life. We always bounce ideas off each other. I will do more of the organising, but he will have a say. I’ll let my friends take the reins on the hen do a little bit. I’m sure there will be a few surprises."
