MUM-TO-BE INES SASTRE TIES THE KNOT

SEND TO A FRIEND

10 APRIL 2006

As one of the world's most successful models, Spanish beauty Ines Sastre is well-used to flashing her pearly whites for the cameras. Satisfying the lensmen gathered outside wasn't the reason for her beaming smile when she emerged from Brompton Oratory in Chelsea, however, as she had just tied the knot with Italian impresario Alexandro Corrias.

The 32-year-old bombshell, who famously romanced golfer Colin Montgomerie after his split from wife Eimear, looked stunning in an Alberta Ferretti gown when she walked down the aisle on Saturday. And her radiant appearance may also have owed something to the fact she is two months pregnant with her first child.

Ines and Alexandro have known each other for some years but Cupid didn't strike until a few months ago when she went to Rome for a photoshoot. The mum-to-be, who speaks four languages and holds a degree in French literature from the Sorbonne, is also enjoying new success in her professional life.

Many fans will recognise the catwalk queen from ads for Lancome cosmetics, but she is also making inroads into the world of acting. After a series of minor roles in French and Spanish productions, she has recently finished work on the Andy Garcia-directed political drama Lost City, which sees her starring alongside Hollywood heavyweights Dustin Hoffman and Bill Murray.
