Kanye West and Kim Kardashian marry in Italian wedding

Kanye West and Kim Kardashian have married at a fortress in the Italian city of Florence.

The E! network, which runs the Keeping Up With the Kardashians TV series, confirmed the news.

The rapper and reality TV star were joined by several hundred guests at the 16th-century Fort Belvedere.

It is the first marriage for West, and the third for Kardashian.

The rapper proposed to his wife in October on her birthday.

12 Years a Slave director Steve McQueen and Will Smith’s son Jaden were among the celebrities spotted in Florence.

The celebrations included horses adorned with bright colours, riders wearing huge feathers in their hats, musketeers in wigs and drum rolls.

It’s thought the wedding could earn the couple up to $21 million (£12.5m) thanks to sponsors and through the sale of exclusive photos of the ceremony.
