BBC Breakfast’s Carol Kirkwood reveals details of ‘intimate wedding’ to fiance Steve
BBC Breakfast’s Carol Kirkwood has revealed details of her ‘intimate wedding’ to fiance Steve.
The popular weather presenter became engaged to Steve Randall in Spring last year, and announced the happy news on BBC Breakfast.
While the couple haven’t set a date for their big day yet, Carol, 61, has revealed what she has in mind for her nuptials.
Speaking to Notebook magazine, she said: “We’re very happy and we’re loved up, and we’re delighted to be together, but we haven’t got a wedding date yet.
“I think we’ll have an intimate wedding. We don’t want to just squeeze it in, we want it to be a celebration.”
Carol couldn’t help but gush about her future husband, who is 13 years her junior.
She said: “He’s so kind, and that’s really important to me. I know
kindness is a buzzword at the moment, but it’s really important in a relationship.”
She also revealed how Steve gets up and makes her a cup of tea every day at 2.45am when she has to get up for her shifts on BBC Breakfast.
But she added: “You should be reliant on yourself for happiness and if somebody else also makes you happy, that’s a huge bonus.
“I’ve learnt that you’re the author of your own destiny. If you want to remain happy, don’t make your life difficult – and surround yourself with people who lift your spirits.”
BBC Breakfast airs daily from 6am on BBC One.
