Example is revelling in married life after tying the knot with TV presenter Erin McNaught in Australia.

The 30-year-old London rapper - whose real name is Elliot Gleave - announced the nuptials on Twitter, where he also posted pictures from the low-key wedding on May 18 and their honeymoon in Tahiti.

"THIS happened yesterday. Will post some more pics for you guys in a bit," he tweeted, later adding: "Just got 35% off a new Samsonite!! God I love married life."

Example, who met Erin in 2011 after she interviewed him and proposed last November, admitted he only got emotional during the ceremony. He even managed to fit in a six-mile run on the big day.

"I wasn't nervous on the day until the moment I saw Erin walking down the aisle. For the most part I held it together, but as soon as I started reading my vows, I had to shed a few tears," he told The Sun.

He got weepy again during the speeches at the reception.

"My dad's speech had everyone roaring with laughter. His entire speech was a poem about my life from baby to man. We both got a bit teary towards the end of that speech - again," he recalled.

Example, who is set to play at Glastonbury festival and other summer dates, also revealed that they incorporated the theme tunes from their favourite films Star Wars and Jurassic Park before they exchanged vows.
