Gemma Atkinson and Gorka Marquez have disclosed their intention to have an understated wedding ceremony, opting to wait until their children are older before tying the knot. The couple, who are parents to Mia and Tiago, have confirmed their plans for marriage despite delaying it initially. They are considering locations in Manchester or Spain for the ceremony, having initially planned to wait until Mia was older before Tiago arrived.

During their podcast, Lost In Translation, Gemma and Gorka shared their wedding plans. Gemma mentioned that they had wanted to marry earlier, but the arrival of their children prompted them to wait for the right time. She expressed concerns about having a wedding with a young child needing attention. Gorka suggested they might sign the necessary documents quietly and avoid a grand celebration, as Gemma has never been keen on a lavish wedding.

Gemma also shared personal insights into why she had not married Gorka yet, attributing it to her late father’s absence. In a heartfelt message written for Father’s Day, she expressed her emotional connection to her father and the difficulty of walking down the aisle without him. Despite their delayed plans, Gemma believes her father would have approved of Gorka and their children.

The couple’s decision to have a modest wedding aligns with Gemma’s preference for a simple celebration rather than a traditional white wedding. Gemma expressed her desire to keep a connection to her family name, indicating a reluctance to let go of that tie to her late father. This personal sentiment has influenced their decision to delay their wedding and keep it low-key.
