Mike Denver has shared a number of rare wedding snaps to mark his anniversary with wife Liz.
The happy couple tied the knot during a romantic ceremony at Keadue Church, Co. Roscommon in 2012, before partying into the night at Kilronan Castle.
Alongside some pictures of their big day, the country singer said, “A very happy anniversary to my wife Liz. Eight great years.”

Last week the happy couple welcomed their first child to the world, a little earlier than expected.
Baby Mia arrived a month prematurely, and due to the Coronavirus lockdown, Mike couldn’t be there for the birth.
Speaking to VIP Magazine, Mike told us, “It was a very frightening time. Liz was admitted to hospital just before the Coronavirus hit the country.
“As it got more serious, the restrictions in the hospital became more intense, day by day.”
He continued, “I was unable to visit Liz, which was really hard on both of us. We were also told that I could not be present at the birth, was a really hard blow.”
“I would have loved to be there for Liz, to support her and share the special moment; a moment we had dreamed of for a long time.
“Being separated from each other before, during and after the birth was very tough. But in the times we are in, it was for everyone’s safety.”
Despite her difficult entry to the world, Mike reveals both mum and baby Mia are doing well and the little tot continues to make great progress.
“Mia was born five weeks early and was just 4Ib 13oz. She’s getting stronger day by day,” he said.
“She’s a real bundle of joy. I’m really enjoying the feeding and cuddles….parenthood is absolutely amazing.”
