Tinie Tempah has reportedly walked down the aisle in the Cotswolds according to a pre-school owner.

The 30-year-old rapper – who similarly kept the birth of his first child with long-term partner under wraps – is said to have been spotted at St Peter’s R C Church in Cirencester by the nursery staff right next door.

He would have gotten away with it if it wasn’t for those kids.

Children at the preschool and playgroup were ‘mesmerised’ by the spectacle and ‘waited beautifully’ as the ‘stunning’ congregation arrived.


The owner of Sunflowers, Lisa Mckie told Gloucestershire Live: ‘It was a complete surprise!



‘I rent the hall from the church and this morning the priest came round and told us there was a big celebrity wedding happening at 1.30pm.’

She added: ‘We were unaware of who he was – he was very lovely and polite.

‘Then at about 1.15pm the bride appeared with her family and she sorted her dress and veil out in the hall foyer.

‘She looked stunning and the bridesmaids were just beautiful.’

Lisa said the ceremony lasted around 45 minutes, and a gospel choir could be heard singing, ‘which was amazing’ and she was later informed that the wedding was actually Tinie’s, a celebrity who is notoriously private when it comes to his personal life.

She added: ‘It was a really happy family wedding with lots of love and warmth – we were very lucky to be able to watch this secret event.’

Metro.co.uk have contacted reps of Tinie’s for comment.

Tinie, real name real name Patrick Okogwu, made a rare appearance with his long term girlfriend and baby girl at the National Prince’s Trust Awards in March.

In December, the Pass Out rapper announced the arrival of his baby girl by casually sharing a sweet photo of the newborn on Instagram.

Speaking to Metro.co.uk, he said: ‘It’s just really the best thing in the world and gives you a whole new outlook and perspective on life and makes me very appreciative for where I am in my life.’

Over the past two years, Tinie’s been mostly radio silent on the new music front but he promises the passion for recording is still there even if his outlook and goals have altered slightly.

The hitmaker said: ‘When I first started making music, obviously I was very inspired by what I saw in America and what I’d see on MTV, the music videos, their lifestyle, the independence and the ownership

‘I was really inspired by that but I think when I started making music as a British rapper, I believed that our music could be worldwide. It can be global.

‘It’s not us versus them but we have the same talent, same capability and we’re from a place where we’ve been dealt similar cards so I see ourselves in this high place and I think my purpose is just to keep trying to achieve that.’
