TV presenter known to Strictly Come Dancing Fans.   Whatever Happened To Class?   When innocently venturing into a local newsagent recently to purchase a newspaper I found myself bombarded with images of the famous Jordan and her unnaturally tanned man Peter André. On further inspection, yes I am ashamed to say I looked out of curiosity, I discovered that the ever-famous busty blonde had tied the knot with Peter. Unfortunately for my sensitive eyes the piece contained more photographs than text. The couple's mode of transport for the day was a large pink and shiny pumpkin carriage-Cinderella style! Though André looked like he had spent a fortnight hibernating in his personal sunbed he was donned rather conservatively when stood beside his partner. The makers of Barbie wouldn't stretch to such tackiness! Jordan wore a flabergastingly poofy pink dress that glinted in the sun and wore, what I suppose she considered her piéce de résistance, a pink diamante tiara that looked suspiciously like something I recently saw a six year old pull from a lucky-bag. And I thought to myself; if this is the kind of wedding that fame and money can buy then I am quite content being utterly broke.
