Brian Paddick, the Lib Dems’ candidate for Mayor of London in 2008, married his partner Peter Belsvik in Norway this weekend. The Sun has the full story, revealing that guests included some of Brian’s fellow jungle contestants on I’m A Celebrity, including Simon Webbe, Nicola McLean and George Takei:
Brian, 50, was the sixth celebrity voted out of the reality show last year, after undergoing gruelling challenges such as sleeping in a cage full of rats and skydiving. After leaving the jungle, he said: “For a long time, in the police force, I’ve been doing serious stuff. It’s all bad news I’ve been commenting on so I thought why not do something trivial.” Earlier last year he ran against Boris Johnson and Ken Livingstone as the Liberal Democrat candidate in the London Mayoral elections, but came third.
On behalf of all of us at Lib Dem Voice, congratulations to Brian and Peter.
