Amelle Berrabah's vows leave husband in tears
Amelle Berrabah told her new husband he was the ''egg in [her] yolk'' and the ''jam on [her] toast'' in her self-written wedding vows.
The 30-year-old singer tied the knot with Marcio Sousa Rosa in Mauritius last month, just days after they got engaged, and she admitted the couple's personalised words to each other left the ''alpha-male'' record label executive in tears because they were so touching.
She said: ''They were very romantic and emotional. Marcio never cries and nothing fazes him, he's so laid-back, but he had to grab a tissue and cover his face because he was crying at one point.
''There were a couple of funny bits in mine, too. I said, 'You're the egg in my yolk, the jam on my toast. Marcio, without you, there is no me.'
''It was lovely to be able to say what I feel about him. I knew I'd fallen in love with him within a couple of weeks of us meeting.
''I loved that he was very mysterious, very alpha-male and he doesn't feel the need to brag.''
While Amelle's mother and five siblings were not invited to their whirlwind wedding due to the pair's wish to have an intimate affair, the former Sugababes star is planning a second ceremony in her parents' native Morocco in which she is going to wear seven dresses.
She added to HELLO! magazine: ''It'll be a big Muslim ceremony and I'll have seven dresses. Well, I might bring it down to three.
''But it's like a three-day party and I'll have henna up my arms and everything. It'll be lovely for my family to be part of it.''
The couple will then embark on a honeymoon to Thailand in the new year, and Amelle admitted Marcio had originally planned for the newlyweds to celebrate their nuptials in the south east Asian country after their Mauritius wedding but he had to scrap those plans because it is monsoon season there.
Amelle and Marcio have already talked about starting a family and she is hoping they will welcome their first child together in around a year.
She said: ''We're thinking maybe in a year, a year and a half - two years tops.
''I'm just so excited knowing this man is mine now, forever. We're very blessed.''

03 NOVEMBER 2014
Amelle Berrabah tied the knot with Marcio Sousa Rosa in a wedding that came as a surprise to many, including the bride herself.
"It was a perfect, perfect day," Amelle, 30, told HELLO! in an exclusive interview about their intimate ceremony in Mauritius – which her record executive love had secretly planned, down to the last detail.
The couple's beautiful wedding album accompanies the special report, which appears this week in the new issue of HELLO!, out now.

'I was blown away when I saw her,' said Marcio Sousa Rosa of his pop star bride Amelle Berrabah
Waking up one morning last month, the singer had no idea she was going on holiday to the Indian Ocean island, let alone that Marcio, 28, would propose to her and make the union official all in one trip.
The Madeira-born romantic had organised the whole affair, picking out Amelle's wedding dressin a UK bridal boutique with the help of her sister Laila, and packing it in secret in his suitcase.
Three days after their arrival, Marcio proposed with a cushion-cut diamond ring – a larger version of one that he and Amelle had seen months before.

"I was just so excited when, later on that evening, he told me we were getting married, too," said the singer. "You know they just say that you just 'know'? Well, it's completely right. Marcio is the other half to me. We're very similar but so different – we complement each other's personalities."
The groom had arranged everything, keeping in mind his love's requirements for her dream nuptials. "I always said I wanted a private wedding away with no stress," said the bride. "I just wanted it to be in a hot country."
At their beach wedding, the Tumble finalist stunned in a fishtail wedding dress that featured beaded embellishments and a romantic scooped back.
Marcio Sousa Rosa proposed in Mauritius and six days later the couple married
"I was blown away when I saw her," said Marcio. "I got very emotional when I saw her walk towards me and I thought, 'Oh my God, that's my wife and she's so beautiful.' There was so much emotion and so much relief – relief that there were no hiccups and everything had gone so well."
Although Amelle's mother and her five siblings were not at the wedding, the bride revealed that her family had known Marcio's intentions from the start and had given him their blessing.
The couple are planning a second wedding in Amelle's native Morocco in March. "It'll belovely
for my family to be part of it," she said.

Former Sugababes singer Amelle Berrabah is engaged.
The 30-year-old singer couldn't wait to share her joy after her boyfriend - a record company CEO who she refers to only as Marcio - proposed on a romantic tropical getaway and she took to Twitter to post pictures of them both.
Amelle also posted a video and included a gushing caption about her 'one true love,' writing: 'We're engaged!! Some spend a lifetime trying to find their other half... Their one true love... Like a jigsaw where you fit together completely and then complete each others souls. I've found him and He has found me... The other part of me..

Engaged: Amelle Berrabah shared this picture on her Twitter page to reveal her engagement to her record company CEO boyfriend
Despite posting pictures of herself and her new fiance, along with her ring, on Twitter and Instagram, Amelle has refused to name her other half.
Sparkler: Amelle shared pictures of the ring
However, in the hashtags on her Instagram video she wrote, 'I Love You Marcio'.
According to his Twitter, @mr_catch_me_if_you_can, Marcio is the CEO of HitMan Records and public records list a Mr Marcio Rafael Sousa Rosa, as the director of the company.
His Instagram is full of pictures of his beautiful girlfriend and he also reposted the Instagram video she shared.
The pictures posted show Amelle in a floral minidress as she holds hands with her love.
Clearly over -the-moon with her ring, she looks down at it as they sit at a table on the beach.
Her hunky husband-to-be looks buff in a grey T-shirt.
Amelle recently took part in gymnastics reality TV show Tumble and revealed to MailOnline that she had lost half a stone but wasn't very happy about it.
So in love: Amella held up her hand to show off her sparkler as her doting fiance looked on
'I used to be nine stone but at the moment I weigh just over eight and a half,' she said.
According to the Sugababes star, the weight dropped off of her despite eating 3,300 calories a day because she rehearsed with partner Doug Fordyce for up to eight hours at a time.
However, unlike some of the other celebrities on the show who have lost weight, Amelle wasn't too fond of her new shape and admitted she missed her curves.
'I just prefer my body at nine stone rather than what it is now,’ she admitted.
'But I know I’ll put the weight back on as soon as the show finishes.
'I've been eating 3,300 calories a day while training. It is a lot but you have to otherwise you will just float away,’ she jokingly added.
‘Doug has warned me though that if I carry on eating the way that I am now, once I stop training, I'm going to seriously pile it on.
‘So once I put that half a stone on, I'm going to have to be very careful!'
And Amelle revealed that her boyfriend had been reaping the benefits of her time on the show.
She told the Daily Star newspaper: 'My boyfriend is definitely very happy I’m on the show.
'He’s started making me stand still for a joke so he can just look at certain areas.
'I could do the splits before but let’s just say I’m a lot more flexible now.
'You could say I’ve been training in the bedroom as well as in the gym. I can certainly do a few new things that I couldn’t do before
What a whopper: Amelle's Instagram video revealed her huge diamond engagement ring
'I’m very confident with him. He makes me feel like a million dollars every day.'
It is a happy ending for Amelle who appeared in court in 2010 on drink drive charges after allegedly having a furious bust-up with her then boyfriend Tom Benn.
The star who was admitted to rehab in 2009 to be treated for 'severe nervous exhaustion', was behind the wheel of her £300,000 Mercedes when she was pulled over by officers in Camden Street, north London.
However, Amelle took to her Twitter page to put across her side of the story.
She tweeted: 'I cant believe what's being said!I'm so sad this has happened to me.
'I got up to do my normal 6am jog - you guys know this as I twitter about it all the time! I'd been out the night before for drinks with friends and got stopped on my way to meet my personal trainer and it was obviously still In my system.
'I'm sooo angry with myself I felt fine and had a coffee.Why do papers always write horrid stuff on me I feel like I'm going rock bottom again.'

Financial Flatline: Sugababes singer Mutya Buena is declared bankrupt after failing to pay tax bill
Financial Flatline: Sugababes singer Mutya Buena is declared bankrupt after failing to pay tax bill
She was one third of the successful girlband the Sugababes.
Under their reign she enjoyed four UK number ones before releasing two solo albums and appearing on Celebrity Big Bother.
But 29-year-old Mutya Buena has been ordered to file for bankruptcy by a High Court judge after she failed to pay a tax bill.

Bankrupt: Mutya Buena has been ordered to file for bankruptcy by a High Court judge after she failed to pay a tax bill
However the singer’s reps have told The Sun Mutya is blaming the bankruptcy on an ‘administrative error.’
According to paperwork lodged with Companies House, the Flatline hitmaker owed her company God Made Me Funky around £22,500 and the organisation only managed to register a profit of £902 in March 2013.
Making matters worse is the fact her other company, Sacred Three Limited, is reportedly in £10,000 of debt.
Mutya still performs with the band MKS, which is made up of former Sugababes founding members Siobhan Donaghy and Keisha Buchanan, but the girls haven't released any new music since September.
Just a misunderstanding? The singer's reps have told The Sun she is blaming the bankruptcy on an ‘administrative error'
Mutya's representatives revealed she ‘continues to write and record with the band.’
Following their comeback, the group - also known as Mutya, Keisha, Siobhan - released single Flatline but it only made number 50 in the UK chart.
Mutya isn’t the only singer who was popular in the early 2000s to recently file for bankruptcy.
Happier times: (L-R) Heidi Range, Mutya Buena and Keisha Buchanan, pictured here in London in 2003, enjoyed success as the Sugarbabes
Last month Blue singer Antony Costa declared himself bankrupt, following in the footsteps of his fellow bandmates Duncan James and Simon Webbe who both declared themselves bankrupt last year after they were unable to pay their debts.
Meanwhile Atomic Kitten star Kerry Katona was bankrupt in 2008 and 2013, and as a result she asked for money from her wedding guests at her nuptials to George Kay earlier this month to help feed her children.
‘I have asked for money. Just a fiver in a card will do. I'm bankrupt and I've got five kids to feed,’ Kerry explained.
Back in the day! The band first formed in 1998 and released their debut album One Touch in 2000

Tumble star Amelle Berrabah fears she's lost TOO MUCH weight - Now magazine
Tuesday 09 September 2014
Tumble star Amelle Berrabah fears she's lost TOO MUCH weight
Amelle Berrabah is looking fitter than ever thanks to eight grueling hours of gymnastics training a day.
Her secret? A protein and carb-enriched diet that amounts to a whopping 3,300 calories a day! That's more than double the recommended daily calorie intake for women (2,000). And those abs speak for themselves.
Amelle, who trains ‘seven or eight' hours a day with her gymnastics partner pro Doug Fordyce, has dropped half a stone throughout this series of Tumble despite the calorific food diary.
But the ex-Sugababe says she ‘can't wait' to pile it back on! Currently a trim eight and a half stone, Amelle's ‘perfect weight' is nine stone.
‘When you're training so much, you have to just keep eating otherwise you will just really float away,' Amelle says. ‘You have to make sure you eat so you have enough energy for each training session. I eat every couple of hours.'
Want to know what 3,300 calories is? It's roughly the equivalent of:
One large Dominos American Hot stuffed Crust pizza
A McDonalds Double cheeseburger
A McDonalds Large French Fries
A McDonalds Medium Strawberry Milkshake
One can of Coca-Cola
Thankfully though, Amelle, 30, has been gaining weight the healthy way. That means the occasional treat but plenty of nutritious cabs, too. She described a typical day's diet as:
Breakfast: Beans on toast
Lunch: Chicken, vegetables and chips
Dinner: Similar to lunch, with a packet of crisps
Snacks: Two chocolate bars, two protein chocolate bars and protein shakes which are around 200 calories each and a snack before bed.
Sure, it seems like a lot but think of the average hours you're at work... THAT'S how long she trains for. Popping to a 45-minute spin class at lunch doesn't seem such a hassle now, right?
