Lucy Pinder and Russell Martin are married! Former Page 3 girl and axed Rangers boss tie the knot after more than a year of dating

Lucy Pinder has officially tied the knot with her longtime partner, Russell Martin.

On Valentine’s Day, the former Page Three sensation, now 42, delighted fans with the news of her marriage to the 40-year-old football manager.

The ex-Celebrity Big Brother contestant shared a stunning photo capturing the duo on their special day, with Lucy radiating elegance in a white, short-sleeved gown.

Their romance became public knowledge in August 2024 when Lucy accompanied Russell to his honorary degree ceremony at the University of Brighton.

At that time, it was reported that the couple had grown increasingly fond of each other in recent months, appearing truly enamored.

An insider revealed to The Sun, “They’re a perfect match — if not made in heaven, then certainly in Southampton. They are absolutely crazy about each other.”

Russell split from his ex-wife Jasmine in 2023 who he shares three children with. 

The wedding will mark a fresh start for Russell after he was sacked by Rangers in October after a disastrous start to life at Ibrox.

The Englishman was dismissed following a 1-1 draw at Falkirk which sparked fury among supporters, leading to chaotic scenes as police were forced to escort him away from the stadium.

Rangers confirmed his departure in a brief statement later that evening, reading: ‘Rangers Football Club confirms that it has parted company with head coach Russell Martin.

‘While all transition periods require some time, results have not met the club’s expectations. Russell and his staff have worked exceptionally hard throughout their time at the club. We thank them for their efforts and wish them well.’

Martin won only one of his seven league matches in charge and lost both of his Europa League games before being dismissed. His side sat eighth in the Premiership at the time of his departure.

Just 24 hours after his sacking, Martin was spotted in Loch Lomond with Lucy, enjoying a swim in the cold waters and appearing to have shrugged off his stressful stint in Glasgow.

Reports claimed the pair seemed ‘happy, upbeat and chipper’ as they shared a romantic afternoon near the water.

Russell previously played for Norwich City and later played for Rangers, Walsall and Milton Keynes Dons.

Lucy had long been a fan of Russell’s former club Southampton where she was a regular at functions, growing close with Russell over time.
