Michelle married her long-term girlfriend at the weekend

Michelle told her family she was gay when she was 28, after years of struggling with her sexuality. "Family members would ask if I had a boyfriend and my excuse was I was too busy at work," she said. "I was nervous about telling them and didn't plan it, but my dad asked me and I didn't want to hide it. He was only upset that I felt I couldn't tell him before. My whole family have been amazing, as have Rosie's. We're very lucky."
