As Tana sat inside awaiting release, the chef grappled with the door - seemingly unfamiliar with the fixtures and fittings of the swanky motor - and was even forced to knock on the window to his wife before working out the method.

'Sixty-three metre walk down the aisle and I don't know why Holly thought that every pew needed to be decorated with the most gorgeous carnations. All the flowers did go to a hospice and the local hospital literally the day after.
'And then there's this moment, the car journey, and she's holding my hand, she's squeezing it, and said "Dad, it's time". And I... "Oh no".

He added: 'You know when you get excited and then you're just sort of nervous and you say "No". And then I walked into the bloody church and there's Adam absolutely bawling like he's just got out of the swimming pool.
'And even I'm feeling emotional now because it is an incredible day and we had such an amazing morning together. And I sort of got a new son as well, as opposed to saying goodbye to Holly. An amazing day.'
