A dad who has a terminal brain tumour got together with his extended family for the final time, for the blessing of his marriage.

Knill Paget and partner Bernadette had a brief wedding ceremony in hospital on Thursday after he took a turn for the worse.

They had to cancel their planned church wedding.

On Sunday, family members got together at LOROS hospice, in Leicester, for the blessing and to say goodbye to 31-year-old Knill, of Braunstone.
