Three cheers for Bob Geldof – he’s officially confirmed that he’s married for a second time, to partner of 19 years, Jeanne Marine.

Bob was speaking at the V&A Museum after giving a talk there.

He said: “I’m really happy. It was a good day. It was great fun.”

The Sun reports that he also wore a gold band on his ring finger. So that’s definitely for definite, then.

Bob’s daughters Fifi and Pixie Geldof, as well as Thomas Cohen, Peaches Geldof’s widowed husband, attended the wedding in the south of France.

Bob met Jeanne after the breakdown of his first marriage to Paula Yates in 1996. Paula was mother to Fifi, Peaches and Pixie, but tragically died of a heroin overdose in 2000. Peaches went on to die from a fatal dose of heroin in 2014.

It’s been a tough few years for Bob so we’re made up for him.

Jeanne, an actress, previously told the Evening Standard: “[Bob] is very stylish, he's very elegant, he's lovely… I need to have men loving me, but I only need one man.

"I hope I've found him. I think he's very attractive. He's a handsome man; but I can't say the opposite, can I?”

No, dear, you can’t. Big congratulations, though.
