Dancing With The Stars Strictly Comes Dancing Judge Len Goodman Weds Dance Teacher Sue Barrett

Congratulations to Dancing With The Stars and Strictly Come Dancing judge Len Goodman!! According to the Daily Mail, Len married his long-term girlfriend and dance teacher, Sue Barrett, in a surprise wedding ceremony over the weekend among 30 family and friends. Below are a few details from the link…

Guests were treated to a champagne reception on the mezzanine balcony overlooking the central restaurant, which Goodman paid £10,000 to hire.

The couple, both dressed in blue, were married in a private room by Westminster superintendent registrar Alison Cathcart.

After the short ceremony at 2pm, their guests sat down to a sumptuous five-course lunch. There was a choice of prawn cocktail or Asian-style pumpkin soup to start, followed by mushroom risotto.

For the main course guests could choose between seabass or English lamb with stir-fried vegetables, with cheese and ‘old school’ apple crumble to finish.

The happy couple then – of course – took to the floor for, as Goodman put it, ‘a spot of dance-teacher dancing.’

The Strictly judge, who officially registered his intention to marry in August, said: ‘I’ve been going out with my lovely Sue for ages and I decided it was time to pop the question.

‘She’s gorgeous and makes me very happy – though she likes to stay out of the limelight. It was a complete surprise to my friends and family today and we’ve had a fabulous time.’

Thanks to all who sent us this news. As Sally said to me at Twitter, maybe Len will be less cranky now? LOL!
