Cycling’s golden couple Jason Kenny and Laura Trott have married.

Kenny, 28, confirmed they had tied the knot on Saturday with a tweet on Sunday which said “Good morning Mrs Kenny”.

It showed a photograph of a smiling Trott, snuggled up in a duvet in bed with the couple’s dogs Sprolo and Pringle – a springer spaniel cross and a poodle – at her feet.

Trott, 24, and Kenny, 28, scored enormous success at the Rio Olympics, with Trott winning two golds to become Britain’s most successful female Olympian. Kenny triumphed on three occasions to take his gold medal tally to six following successes at the Beijing and London games.

Trott’s proud father also wrote on Sunday: “So pleased to announce that my darling daughter Laura Trott married Jason Kenny yesterday. Thank you to everyone. A wonderful day.”

He shared two photographs of the happy couple at the church. Trott looked radiant in her long-sleeved wedding dress with a wide lace scoop neck and sweetheart bodice.

Kenny, who has previously joked that he is unmarketable because he is “a miserable sod”, was beaming in his dark grey three-piece suit.
