Jilted bride gives marriage another go - on Friday 13th

A bride who was jilted at the altar says "everything has fallen into place" as she prepares for her second wedding in four years.

Kayley Stead became a social media sensation in 2022 when she decided to go ahead with the celebrations despite her fiancé not turning up.

But after reconnecting with an old university friend, she was able to find love again, and the pair are set to tie knot on Friday 13th.

Referring to the mysterious superstition that the day is considered unlucky, Kayley, from Swansea, said she "loves a risk" and is feeling great about their big day.

"It just feels right, and it feels completely different from the last time when I was planning it," she said.

Kayley said she is feeling prepared to marry her fiancé Richard Perrott who she met when they were on the same course in university a decade ago.

"Luckily, I learned all the dos and don'ts last time and what to prep for," she told Radio Wales Breakfast.

"But the nerves are definitely coming in, which I think is normal."

She said "everything has fallen into place" this time around and she feels that, despite the emotional rollercoaster she went on a few years ago, it happened for a reason.
