Jamie and Louise Redknapp ended their marriage in 2017.

Louise Redknapp was “quite shocked” when she found out her ex-husband Jamie was remarrying.

The singer reportedly “didn’t have a lot of time to prepare” for the news, according to The Mirror.

The former Strictly star was aware Jamie was set to walk down the aisle again, but it is believed she was stunned by the news.

Redknapp married Frida Andersson in an intimate ceremony at Kensington and Chelsea Register Office on Monday, October 18th.

She was made aware of the nuptials because of her sons’ involvement in the ceremony.

It is understood 12-year-old Beau and 17-year-old Charley walked into the service by their dad’s side.

“She didn’t have a lot of time to prepare because Jamie just wanted to be married before the baby was born,” a source told the publication.

Frida and Jamie were joined by his sons at the ceremony on Monday. His parents, Harry and Sandra Redknapp also attended.

Only the closest people possible joined the couple on their special day.

They celebrated at a Mayfair restaurant with close friends and family later that day.

The source revealed 48-year-old Redknapp was desperate to marry Andersson before she gave birth.

It is understood the mum-of-two has struggled with seeing Jamie move on so swiftly.

The couple separated in 2017 after nearly 20 years of marriage.

A source told Closer, “Louise only wants Jamie to be happy, it’s never going to be easy watching your ex move on, let alone start a new family with someone else when you share children together, so it was a bit of a blow.”

This is both Jamie and Frida’s second marriage. The model shares four children with her ex-husband and US hedge fund manager Jonathan Lourie.
