Matthew Middleton and Nerys Jones make a living as
lookalikes | |
A Victoria Beckham lookalike from north Wales is to wed her business
partner - who doubles for
England soccer star David Beckham.
Nerys Jones and Matthew Middleton first met two years ago on a photo
shoot, posing as the celebrity
couple for a Sunday newspaper.
They had planned to wed in Sri Lanka but had to swap locations after the tsunami
disaster.
Instead, they will marry in Cuba next month, watched by family and
friends.
The couple, who live in Ruabon, Wrexham, have made a successful living
as lookalikes of the former Spice Girl and her heart-throb sportsman
husband.
Nerys, 32, said: "We first met when we were booked by the News of the
World paper in Manchester.
"We just clicked straight
away. It was about one week after that we got together."
The couple have appeared together on countless television programmes
and travelled the world imitating the Beckhams.
They have been planning their wedding since Christmas 2003, when
Matthew, 28, originally from Bradford, proposed.
"We were going to Sri Lanka but because of what has happened we have to
go somewhere else - so Cuba it is going to have to be," added Nerys.
Unlike the Beckhams wedding at Luttrellstown Castle near Dublin in July
1999 which had a star-studded guest list of over 200, Nerys and Matthew
are taking just a small group of family and close friends to Cuba.
"We are having a reception when we come home with a George Michael
tribute act, but on our wedding day in Cuba we just want to be ourselves."

一位來自北威爾士的辣妹維多利亞“冒牌替身”將和她的商業搭檔——英國球星大衛·貝克漢姆的“冒牌替身”喜結良緣。
兩年前,妮瑞絲·瓊斯和馬修·米德爾頓在一次拍照中結識。他們當時“冒充”明星小貝夫婦為一家星期日報拍攝照片。
他們原計劃在斯里蘭卡舉行婚禮。但由于前不久發生的大海嘯而不得不另選地點。
下月(2月),他們將在家人和朋友們的注視下在古巴完婚。
這對夫婦住在(威爾士)萊克瑟姆的小村Ruabon,靠著模仿前“辣妹合唱團”成員維多利亞和她的丈夫——大眾情人貝克漢姆而獲得成功。
32歲的妮瑞絲說:“當時,曼徹斯特的《世界新聞報》分別預約我們進行拍攝,那是我們第一次見面。”
“我倆一見鐘情,大約一星期后就在一起了。”
這對夫婦靠模仿貝克漢姆夫婦一起周游世界,在無數電視節目中露面。
他們倆從2003年圣誕節就開始計劃他們的婚禮了,當時來自布拉德福特的馬修28歲,他向妮瑞絲求婚成功。
妮瑞絲補充道:“我們原計劃去斯里蘭卡。但是那里發生的海嘯使我們不得不另換地點,所以我們決定在古巴舉行婚禮。”
1999年7月,小貝夫婦在都柏林附近的路特斯堂城堡舉行了(盛大)婚禮,來賓名單中有200多位明星人物。和他們的婚禮有所不同,妮瑞絲和馬修僅僅邀請了一小部分家人和密友去古巴見證他們的婚禮。
“回家后我們將舉行一場招待會,屆時還會有老歌星喬治·邁克爾的演出助興。但是在古巴,婚禮當天我們只想做自己。”
