Rag 'N' Bone Man married his long-term girlfriend Zoe Beardsall on Saturday afternoon in an intimate ceremony surrounded by family and friends. The music sensation, whose real name is Rory Graham, confirmed the news after the bride-to-be shared a sweet snap on social media.
The post was of a picture of a lit candle and it read: "Smells like you're getting married." Alongside the candle was a note the singer had addressed to her, where he wrote his feelings about his new wife, whom he lovingly calls 'Zo'.
A source close to the couple confirmed they were planning a huge celebration in honour of the singer being the happiest he's felt 'in years' after finding love with Zoe after his divorce,reports the Mirror.
"Rory is really down to earth and he and Zoe love their quiet life out of the spotlight. But the wedding won’t be low-key, as they’re having all their friends and family involved for a massive celebration, with a huge party afterwards," they told The Sun.
The source added: "Rory is the happiest he has been in years and has now really found his soulmate in Zoe." The star who has accumulated a legion of fans first met Zoe - an aspiring actress - after his split from his first wife Beth Rouy, two years prior. However, their romance hit a stumbling block during the first summer of their relationship. But they managed to rekindle their relationship.
Rory then got down on one knee last year. He said at the time: "We got engaged on the plane, on the way to Nashville." In an interview with The Sun, alongside her beau, Zoe said: "He was going to do it when we got there but his anxiety was getting the better of him and he didn’t want to ruin the holiday. He was p**sing about with the divider between our seats and he put it down and was just sitting there with a box."

At the time of the pair's brief split, a source told the publication: "Things have been full-on for Rory around the release of his album and everything, so it has been difficult to spend a lot of time together. It hasn’t worked out between them and they have called things off."
To confirm the news at the time, it was noticed that she had also unfollowed him on social media. The source added: "Rory has now gone down to Cornwall without her for some time out to reflect, after what has been quite a hectic few months. It seems as though that is it for them, which is a real shame. But they are both busy parents so it was always a juggling act to see each other."
This came after Rory split from his wife Beth in 2019 after mutually deciding that it was best for them to just be "close friends."
