Sarah Jayne Dunn tied the knot last year, surrounded by her showbiz friends.

She and partner Jonathan Wilson said “I do” at The Holford Estate in Cheshire on a beautiful sunny May day.

Stanley, then 20 months old, attended the ceremony in a suit matching his dad’s.

“To marry in front of our son was such a special moment,” Sarah Jayne told OK! magazine.
