The Loose Women panel have opened up about they wedding day horror stories, with Frankie Bridge telling all about her ruined snaps and the mirrored dancefloor she regrets getting

The Loose Women have opened up about their wedding horror stories during a frank chat on Thursday’s instalment of the ITV daytime show.

Hosted by Jane Moore, panellists Frankie Bridge, Nadia Sawalha and Sunetra Sarker reminisced over their big days at the purple panel desk.

The Saturdays singer Frankie, 33, dove in to tell ITV viewers of her nuptials with former footballer Wayne Bridge in Bedfordshire seven years ago.

Frankie remembered how she “started welling up” moments before she walked down the aisle with her dad, saying: “I had this thing that I didn’t want to cry because I’d had all my make-up done.

“I knew if I looked at anyone I loved they were just going to set me off.”

But she said that her determination not to cry on the big day resulted in her walking down the aisle staring at the floor, adding: “So, I’ve got no nice pictures of my dad and I.”

Frankie continued: “Wayne was inconsolable the whole wedding. He could barely get his speech out and then he cried for weeks after as well.

“So, my message to anyone getting married is just cry. Wear waterproof make-up.”

She then added her final piece of advice: don’t get a mirrored dance floor for the big day, despite how good it might look.

Frankie explained: "Everyone else could not step on the dancefloor until they got drunk if they were wearing a dress.”

Frankie said: “I did that because, aesthetically, it looked beautiful in the room, but I didn’t think about any of my guests.

“Obviously I had a long dress on, so it was fine. Everyone else could not step on the dancefloor until they got drunk if they were wearing a dress.”

Fellow panellist Nadia looked horrified and said: “Oh God, what a mistake,” as Frankie laughed it off, replying: “It looked great though. It was a talking point.”

Moving down the panel, Jane detailed her own wedding day horror story as she told her co-hosts how her husband Gary Farrow nearly missed the big day because he was arrested the night before.

“I would have had pre-wedding jitters if I’d known what would happen.”

The Loose Women panellist got hitched at London’s Claridges Hotel in 2002, with a star-studded guest list that included Jonathan Ross, Barbara Windsor and Frank Skinner, while Sir Elton John was Gary’s best man.

Jane said: “I would have had pre-wedding jitters if I’d known what would happen.”

The 59-year-old journalist explained how her husband had been “thrown in a police cell” the night before.

She explained: “He was at a hotel with his mates and there was a fire alarm and he wouldn’t leave the hotel until he knew everyone was alright – then he got lairy.”

She said when Gary was put into a jail cell, he could see it was getting light and knew their nuptials were due to start at 10am sharp.

Jane continued: “In the end they did let him out and he was put on this roundabout and had to ring his brother.

“He had to meet him with his wedding clothes and then he turned up and I said, ‘You look a right state’. I thought he was still drunk.”
