"Until I met him, I never realised the bond you could have with a horse. It's incredible," he said.

The horse was clearly always going to be a huge part of Paul's life but who could've predicted that the animal would also be travelling with the couple on their honeymoon as well!

The couple shares: "He listens to us and we listen to him. Kay has ridden horses for 25 years but I was a total newcomer. I talk to him and he understands voice commands. He lets our ten-year-old daughter Poppy ride him.

"He's not a normal racehorse, he's very placid and patient – and everyone loves him."

We wish the couple the best as they ride off into the sunset.
