Alex married Imogen in a stunning Mallorca ceremony in September 2022 after he previously got down on one knee on the island.
And at their wedding his son Cruz acted as ring bearer and his mini best man, while his brother and cousin performed the role of ushers, and his best friends – both called Leon – were his best men.
Imogen’s sisters, Helena and Georgia, were bridesmaids and led the bridal procession down the aisle to the foot of the white marble temple.
Alex popped the question on New Year’s Day while the pair were holidaying on a beach in Deia, Mallorca after two years of dating.

A mutual friend set the lovebirds up on a blind date in August 2020 and the rest is history.
To mark their special moment, the happy couple returned to the Spanish island to tie the knot at the picturesque Son Marroig estate.
Imogen grew up in Australia and works in e-commerce operations for a top London restaurant.
Before Alex and Imogen met, she recalled that she had never seen him on television before meeting him and refrained looking him up before their date as she wanted to find out first hand what he was like.
Recalling their first date in Bristol, where Beresford lives, she said: ‘When we met, it felt as if we’d known each other for ages. Holding hands and laughing together just came naturally.’
The couple had a long-distance relationship moving between Bristol and London before their engagement.
Meanwhile Alex HELLO! magazine: ‘I’d been on my own for a while and was ready for a new relationship. But I was adamant I didn’t want to try a dating website.
‘I’m of an age where before social media, you met a girl, took her phone number and called to invite her out.’
He explained that he asked a friend if she knew anyone he would get on with, to which she replied: ‘I do – but she’s way too good for you’.
The presenter said he laughed along and told her “She’s the one that I want!”

Reflecting on the beginning of their relationship, he said: ‘We hit it off from the start. We talked every day about our shared values and goals, and our love for our families. We’ve always been on the same page.’
Alex has worked on Good Morning Britain since 2014 and made his Dancing On Ice debut in 2018.
In 2021, Alex criticised Piers Morgan on GMB for his comments regarding Megan Markle’s interview with Operah.
Last year Alex left his wife at home to partake in this year’s Celebrity edition of Race Across the World – and she’s not happy, according to Radio Times.
Alex, decided to take his dad Noel on the taxing adventure, saying his wife Imogen wanted to tag along with him.
The ITV presenter sweetly told Times Radio the reasoning behind his decision.
Alex said: ‘You don’t get to spend this sort of time with your parents as an adult.
Imogen was upset, as she loves travelling and she’s a fan of the show but, as much as I love her and spending time with her, I’m not sure this was the honeymoon she’d want!
‘With hindsight, I think I made the right decision.’
