Aussie Rafter ties the knot with long-time girlfriend
SYDNEY: Australia's double US Open tennis champion Pat Rafter has married his long-time girlfried, model Lara Feltham, in a private ceremony at a resort in Fiji, it was reported yesterday.
The couple spent nine months preparing the low-key and secret wedding at the Musket Cove Island Resort on Saturday afternoon, Australian Associated Press reported.
They were joined by around 40 family members and close friends as well as the couple's 20-month-old son, Joshua.
Rafter, who retired last year, has become a regular guest at the resort despite its lack of a tennis court.
“The toughest thing was keeping it secret,” said the resort's marketing director Josephine Smith of the wedding.
“We knew about nine months ago they planned to get married. A few people were asking questions and we had to tell a few lies.”
