Tom Daley and Dustin Lance Black tie the knot in lavish wedding ceremony

Tom Daley and Dustin Lance Black have tied the knot in a lavish wedding ceremony at Bovey Castle in Devon.

The pair were married in a formal ceremony in the Cathedral Room at the stately home in the presence of close family and friends on Saturday (7 May).

Following the extravagant nuptials guests enjoyed a three-course meal before dancing the night away with the newlyweds.

There were reports that the pair re-enacted a scene from Romeo and Juliet although a guest told the BBC that the claims were untrue.

"I'm not sure which wedding they were at but it wasn't the one I attended," he said.

The Olympic diver and the filmmaker were engaged in October 2015 and despite cheating allegations the pair, who have a 20-year age gap between them, have been together for four years.

Their relationship was tested following allegations that the TeamGB athlete had been in an 18-month affair with male model Edward William.

Daley also shared a shot of Black sitting in the sunshine marking the date the pair first became romantically involved.

Daley first revealed he had a boyfriend in a YouTube video in 2013, saying his "whole world changed" when he fell in love with a man.

"Come spring this year my life changed massively when I met someone and they make me feel so happy, so safe, and everything just feels great and, well, that someone is a guy," he said.

He said just a week after meeting Black that he knew he wanted to settle down with him and revealed that the pair discussed marriage almost immediately.

He told the Mirror: "After the first week we'd been together, I just knew. And ever since then it's just felt like a waste of time not being married to Lance."
