Blair and Melanie married last August in Lake Como in one of the most spectacular weddings of the year.

Their video at the idyllic Italian destination has been viewed millions of times after they postponed the wedding from 2020 due to the Covid pandemic.

Just last week they marked the global launch of Bondi Sands’ new innovative tanning product, Technocolor, with an event at the Lume.

He and Melanie exchanged vows in Lake Como at the luxury Villa Balbiano on the western shore, where scenes from blockbuster movie House of Gucci were filmed.

There were three days of stunning events, starting with welcome drinks at Grand Hotel Tremezzo, the wedding on Monday and a pool party at the villa on Tuesday.

Eighty people flew in for the ceremony, including Wilson and his partner, model Tess Shanahan.

Melanie wore three gowns by top designers J’Aton, Pallas Couture and Kyha Studios.
