Model plans to marry her dog after giving up on men following 220 failed dates

A fed-up former model who says she "done with men" plans to marry her pet dog after going on 220 failed dates.

Elizabeth Hoad hopes to persuade her local Catholic church to allow her to wed her six-year-old golden retriever, named Logan.

Hoad, 49, is a former Page 3 model and had well-documented flings in the 1980s with legendary golfer Seve Ballesteros and famed racing driver James Hunt.

She plans to tie the knot in front of 20 other guests, and she says she will wear the wedding ring while Logan will wear a top hat, waistcoat and bow tie.

Her friend's two huskies, Ajax and Bear, will be the 'best men' at the wedding.
