Declan Donnelly celebrated his fourth wedding anniversary with wife Ali Astall with an adorable throwback to their big day.

The black and white picture of the newlyweds, who married in 2015, sees the pair holding hands as they cut their wedding cake.

The Britain’s Got Talent host tweeted the picture and his thoughts at the end of their special day with Donnelly explaining to his seven million followers that their 11-month-old daughter Isla Elizabeth had played a very important part in making the day so memorable.

Donnelly, 43, wrote: "I can’t believe this was 4 years ago today. It’s gone by so quickly. Thanks for all the lovely messages. We’re having a lovely anniversary, our first with our beautiful baby girl 👶🏻 D&A x."

It has become a tradition for Donnelly to publicly mark their anniversary as he shares images with his fans almost every year.

In August 2018, however, the pair didn’t share a picture as they were busy preparing for the birth of their daughter, who arrived on September 1.

Back in March of that year, they shared another wedding snap to confirm the happy news that they were expecting their first child together.

At the time he tweeted: “Just wanted to say thank you for all the lovely messages. The news has sneaked out a little earlier than we had hoped but Ali and I are delighted to be expecting our first child.

“Thanks for all the love, we really appreciate it D x."

The couple have been together since 2013 and will celebrate Isla's birthday next month.
