“Anoushka and Joe wanted a quiet affair with close family and friends,” the Daily Mail quoted a pal of the pair as saying.

“Ros was devastated when she found out as she hadn’t been told. It was quite different to the big wedding she had planned with Joe. Anoushka believes a wedding is a spiritual affair. She had no interest in a media circus,” the pal added.

Rosamund,31,was due to marry Wright in September 2008,but the wedding was cancelled after Rosamund sent out invitations with the couple pictured in a hot tub.
