Ahern's daughter to marry boyfriend in Wicklow

Georgina Ahern, the daughter of Taoiseach Bertie Ahern, is due to marry Westlife singer Nicky Byrne in a civil ceremony at a registry office in Wicklow today.

Only two witnesses are expected to attend the low-key service at the Glenside Road registry office.

The couple are due to hold a church wedding in France on Saturday, but under French law, they must provide a certificate saying they have already been married in a civil ceremony.
