PIN-UP Nell McAndrew has secretly married her long-term boyfriend, it emerged yesterday.
She got hitched to property developer Paul Hardcastle, 35, in a private ceremony before just six guests.
The news will break the hearts of thousands of men who admire the gorgeous forces' favourite.
The pair, who have been dating for five years, had planned an exotic wedding in the Far East.
But it is believed Yorkshire lass Nell switched the venue to Huddersfield after her dad Ted started treatment for cancer.
Nell, 31, showed off her wedding ring to nurses yesterday when she and Ted made a public appearance at a hospital.
But the model and TV favourite - who is due to run a charity race in Leeds tomorrow - kept her honeymoon plans a mystery.
Nell had announced the wedding last year, saying: "I can't wait to marry Paul. He's the only man for me. He's my best friend, lover - everything.
"There was no big proposal. I don't even want an engagement ring - I've saved him a few quid there."
