Dave Hughes Shares Behind-the-Scenes Glimpses of Mel B’s Star-Studded Wedding

Australian comedian Dave Hughes, 54, offered an exclusive peek into Mel B’s lavish wedding to hairstylist Rory McPhee at London’s St Paul’s Cathedral. The couple, who tied the knot on Saturday, befriended Hughes while filming The Masked Singer Australia.

A Ceremony with Surprises
Hughes shared photos and a playful clip of the newlyweds arriving via the London Tube, captioning his Instagram post: “Holly and I had a fantastic time… A great time had by all.” But speaking to Daily Mail Australia, he revealed chaotic moments unseen online. Mel arrived 30 minutes late, leaving Hughes worried Rory would be “left at the aisle in his kilt—no undies and no bride.” The couple’s dog, tasked with delivering the rings, also stole the show by getting lost mid-ceremony.

The ceremony featured a choir and a vicar who cleverly wove a Spice Girls lyric into his homily. Guests, including Spice Girl Emma Bunton and comedian Alan Carr, later celebrated at The Shard, transported in vintage double-decker buses. Hughes joked about the paparazzi ignoring him but praised Bunton as “lovely” and Carr as “a good laugh.”

Holly Hughes Steals the Spotlight
Hughes’ wife, Holly, turned heads in a chic yellow-and-white floral dress and cream fascinator. Fans flooded the comments, with one noting Hughes was “punching above his weight.” He laughed, saying, “I’ve had 23 years of those comments. Take them as a compliment!”

Near-Miss with the Invite
Hughes nearly missed the event due to filming I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! in South Africa. The invitation arrived while he was off-grid, and he only discovered it post-jungle. “I quickly emailed back, ‘Yes… we want to go!’” he said, noting the timing fit perfectly between his comedy gigs.

Wimbledon Drama
Days before the wedding, Hughes made headlines for confronting a noisy spectator at Wimbledon. “This English bloke wouldn’t shut up,” he recounted. *“Everyone was happy I told him off. What is it with entitled English w*kers?!”

Family Life
Dave and Holly, married since 2006, share three children: Rafferty, 15, Sadie, 13, and Tess, 11. The comedian balances family life with his thriving career, recently appearing on The Masked Singer Australia alongside Mel B.
