My Wedding Day with Jeanni O'Shea: My mom only got her visa three weeks before our wedding

South African model Jeanni Mulder and Irish Olympian and former rugby union player Greg O'Shea on their wedding day.

We got married on October 6, 2025. We’d gotten engaged on New Year’s Eve — Greg proposed while we were doing the countdown. I was reaching in for a Happy New Year’s kiss, and he was going down on one knee. It was such a shock.
