TV royalty Ant McPartlin and his wife Anne-Marie Corbett have pulled off a clandestine coup, hosting a top-secret anniversary celebration that’s got Tinseltown buzzing! The couple, who tied the knot in a star-studded ceremony at St Michael’s Church in Heckfield, Hampshire, in August 2021, marked their fourth year of wedded bliss with an intimate gathering at their jaw-dropping £6 million Wimbledon mansion. But the real jaw-dropper? The surprise VIP guest who left everyone gobsmacked!
Sources close to the couple reveal that Ant, 49, and Anne-Marie, 46, went all out to keep the bash under wraps, inviting only their nearest and dearest for an evening of fine dining, heartfelt toasts, and a few cheeky surprises. The couple, proud parents to their one-year-old son Wilder Patrick McPartlin, transformed their plush pad into a romantic wonderland, complete with fairy lights, a gourmet menu curated by a celebrity chef, and a bespoke cocktail bar serving Ant’s favorite tipple—a nod to his Newcastle roots.
But the night’s biggest bombshell was the arrival of none other than Snoop Dogg, the legendary rapper and global superstar! Insiders spill that Ant, a longtime fan of the Doggfather, pulled strings to fly the 53-year-old icon in from Los Angeles for a one-night-only appearance. Snoop, fresh off his latest album drop, reportedly serenaded the couple with an acoustic version of “Ain’t No Fun” and even dished out relationship advice, leaving guests in stitches. “Ant was over the moon,” a source squealed. “He’s been banging on about Snoop for years, and Anne-Marie made it happen as her anniversary gift to him!”
The guest list was a who’s-who of showbiz, with Ant’s telly partner Declan Donnelly and his wife Ali Astall leading the pack. Other A-listers spotted included Frank and Christine Lampard, David Walliams, and a surprise appearance by This Morning’s Gino D’Acampo, who owns the Newcastle restaurant where Ant and Anne-Marie have been known to dine. The couple’s tight-knit circle ensured the event stayed hush-hush, with phones reportedly banned to keep the night off social media.
Anne-Marie, glowing in a chic one-shoulder gown, and Ant, dapper in a tailored tux, shared a heartfelt moment as they toasted to their journey together. “They’re more in love than ever,” a pal gushed. “Welcoming Wilder and building their family has only made them stronger.” The night wasn’t without its sentimental touches—Ant reportedly gifted Anne-Marie a custom necklace engraved with Wilder’s birthdate, while she surprised him with a vintage vinyl of Snoop’s *Doggystyle* album, signed by the man himself.
The secret shindig comes hot on the heels of Ant’s triumphant return to ITV’s *I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!*, where he and Dec wrapped filming in Australia last December. With their *Saturday Night Takeaway* on hiatus, Ant’s been relishing family time, spotted strolling with Anne-Marie and Wilder in Wimbledon and even taking their maltipoos, Milo and Bumble, for walks in Richmond Park.
As for Snoop’s cameo, it’s sparked wild speculation about a potential collab. Could Ant and Dec be planning a rap skit for their next TV venture? Or is Snoop eyeing a guest spot on *Britain’s Got Talent*? “Snoop and Ant hit it off like old mates,” our source teased. “Watch this space!”
For now, Ant and Anne-Marie are basking in their anniversary glow, with Snoop’s surprise appearance cementing their status as the ultimate power couple. Here’s to love, laughter, and a little bit of *Gin and Juice*!
