Jetset fly to Barbados for Jodi and Kian's showbiz wedding

By Richie Taylor

WESTLIFE star Kian Egan and his fiancee, the former 'Hollyoaks' actress Jodi Albert, will tie the knot in sun-kissed Barbados at midday today in one of the most highly-anticipated showbiz weddings of the year.

The 29-year-old Sligo singer will be the third member of the boy band to wed, joining Nicky Byrne and Shane Filan, while Mark Feehily has been with gay partner Kevin McDaid for over two years.

Kian, aspiring pop singer Jodi (25), and some close friends and family members have been relaxing at the famous Sandy Lane resort on the Caribbean island all week.

But up until last night the couple would not reveal if they were marrying at the luxury Tamarin Cove Hotel, which is the wedding party's base, or at the exclusive Coral Reef Club.

The couple have signed a deal with an English glossy magazine for exclusive rights to cover the wedding and there has been a complete shutdown about their plans.

The deal is believed to be worth close to €1m -- and guests will not be allowed to take photographs at either the ceremony or the reception.

Today's guest-list will include Kian's three bandmates and their partners as well as Jodi's four bandmates from her new girl group, which has yet to be officially named. And pop guru Louis Walsh, who manages both Kian and Jodi, is also a guest.

Kian proposed to Jodi on Christmas Day 2007 after four years of dating.
