Martine McCutcheon looks stunning as she marries 'best friend' Jack McManus

Happy couple ... Martine McCutcheon has married Jack McManus

MARTINE McCutcheon says she has married her "best friend".

The former EastEnders actress tied the knot with Jack McManus on the shores of Italy’s Lake Como just over a week ago.
And the first pic of the happy couple shows musician Jack and his bride beaming as they stand under an arch of white flowers.
Martine, 36, wore a vintage-style lace wedding gown by Pronovias for her big day.
While Jack arrived at the romantic ceremony in a speedboat which featured in the film Ocean’s 12.
Martine told Hello! magazine she had never felt happier.
She declared: “We are best friends as well as lovers and totally supportive of one another.
“We feel that we can conquer anything the world throws at us as long as we have each other, and that’s a rare thing.
“In a world where everything is so disposable, isn’t it lovely to do something that has that optimism of ’yes, we’re going to last the distance’."
And the Love Actually star said her mum Jenny was delighted with her new son-in-law.

She said: “Mum adores Jack and could not wait for him to become my husband.
“Mum said for ages that Jack was The One.
“She said she’s never seen me so calm or content and told me, ’You’re so lucky to have found what you’ve found, so don’t muck it up'."
Jack, 28, added: “I had a tear in my eye pretty much all the way through the ceremony.
“I am blessed with so many amazing memories and moments with her, but today has topped them all. I feel I’m the luckiest man in the world.”
