Maia Dunphy has revealed she’ll be donating her incredible Jenny Packman wedding dress to charity.
The broadcaster wore the beautiful gown as she married Johnny Vegas in April 2011, but now, wants it go to a new home.
Instead of the guna gathering dust, Maia will be giving it into Oxfam, so another lucky bride can wear it down the aisle.

Sharing a rare snap of her big day, she said, “I have realised there’s no point in keeping my insanely beautiful Jenny Packman wedding dress in a bag forever.
“It’s lovely to look at, but I’m never going to wear it again, and fear one day I’ll take it down to find a moth hole in it.
“So I’m going to give it to the Oxfam bridal shop and hope that someone else gets as much joy out of wearing something so special. Welling up even thinking about it! Loved this dress so much.”
Earlier this year, Maia and Johnny announced their split.
Speaking to Sunday Independent’s Life Magazine, she said, “Johnny and I are not together now. It’s difficult and heartbreaking and a source of daily sadness for me.”
Maia and Johnny share a five-year-old son, and her main priority is looking after Tom and his wellbeing.
“It’s something I am deliberately nebulous about because I don’t want it to define Tom or me, and I don’t want to talk publicly about it,” she said.
“Like many people in the same situation, I’m just doing my best to get on with life under painful circumstances.”
