Former X Factor star Frankie Cocozza has got married - and it's sure to be a slap in the face for his ex Charlotte Dawson.

The pair appeared on E4 series Celebs Go Dating together last autumn, when the wannabe rocker, 25, turned his attentions on the fellow unlucky-in-love TV personality Charlotte, who declared he was 'the one for her' and claimed she was 'ready to get married'.

But, despite things fizzling out shortly after the third season of the programme aired, the reality bad boy has this weekend married his most recent girlfriend Bianca Murphy.


 

Wedding bells: The X Factor's Frankie Cocozza tied the knot with his girlfriend Bianca Murphy... MONTHS after Charlotte Dawson claimed he was 'the one' on Celebs Go Dating

Frankie and his bride said 'I do' in Brighton on Sunday, with the singer - who was famously booted off X Factor in 2011 for 'bragging about cocaine use' - uploading a snap to his Instagram page of the occasion, captioned 'Mr & Mrs'.

In it, he was seen in a black suit, a red rose on his lapel, hand-in-hand with new wife Bianca, who stepped out in a gold dress and bridal veil. 

She held a rose bouquet and grinned in the sun-drenched snap, as they walked among fluttering confetti.  

Bianca's own Instagram page featured a snap - which was uploaded earlier in the week - of her wearing a sash which read 'Bride To Be', gold trousers, a cowgirl hat and sipping champagne.

She captioned the photo 'M@rriag3 tingZ' before tagging her then-husband-to-be asking him 'how’s those feeeeet??' in what appeared to be a joke referring to Frankie's stag do.


New woman: Rumours that Charlotte and Frankie split came as he skipped her 25th birthday celebrations  and was holidaying in Bali with a mystery girl - now known to be Bianca

Stag do: Frankie appeared to be on his stag do just three days ago, while Bianca looked to be on a hen night out at the same time

On Thursday, he appeared in another Instagram snap, dressed as a woman, wearing uncomfortable-looking high heels. 

At the end of January, Bianca uploaded a photo of her sitting on a motorbike with Frankie. The caption read: 'We're getting hitched!!!! Cannot wait to spend the rest of my life with you, you AMAZING beautiful human, I LOVE you unconditionally & Eternally #biankie.'

This means Frankie must have met Bianca somewhere between October and the new year - unless they were acquainted before he appeared on Celebs Go Dating last September.

At the time on the show, the Celebrity Big Brother contestant caused havoc as he was seen snubbing the women he was set up with, instead turning his attentions to Ex On The Beach's Charlotte - who is the daughter of the late comedian Les Dawson.

Soft spot: Despite adding that Frankie, 24, was 'an idiot' and 'stupid', Charlotte admitted that she still had a soft spot for the X Factor star and would probably sleep with him again


In the season three finale of Celebs Go Dating, Charlotte turned up in a white dress and shouted out 'I'm ready to get married!' as she greeted the wild-haired singer.

She then gushed: 'It just had to be Frankie he's definitely the man for me.'

A smitten Frankie said: 'I'm buzzing, I think you're gorgeous and I haven't had more fun with anyone in ages.'

The Ex On The Beach star then said she'd had to 'kiss a lot of frogs' to get to her man, before laying a smacker on his lips.

Alas, it appears the search for 'her man' is still on for Charlotte. She told Star magazine shortly after that they had stopped talking to each other.

She said: 'I don't speak to him. We had a good connection - as you could see on Celebs Go Dating, it was very genuine and real.'

Yet revealing she feared he used her to play up for the cameras, Charlotte added: 'I didn't have him down for being a showman type of person, so it was a shock. It was horrible.'

Chemistry: Showing how comfortable they are in each other's presence, Frankie turned around to look into his companion's eyes as one strap of her dress saucily fell down and she pouted for the camera

Interesting: He somewhat saucily captioned the snap: 'You can dip your garlic bread in my mussel sauce any day mate'

Despite adding that Frankie was 'an idiot' and 'stupid', Charlotte admitted that she still had a soft spot for the X Factor star.

'If I saw him tomorrow, we'd probably end up sleeping together,' she admitted. 'Then I'd probably tell him to f**k off!'

Rumours that Charlotte and Frankie had split came as he skipped her 25th birthday celebrations in October, and was holidaying in Bali with a mystery girl.

It now transpires the mystery girl was Bianca - and that the aforementioned motorbike photo was taken on that vacation.

In the snap, a shirtless Frankie was seen straddling the moped as the pretty redhead sat behind him, wrapping her legs around him. Frankie was seen looking into his companion's eyes as one strap of her dress saucily fell down and she pouted for the camera.

He uploaded the image himself last year and captioned it at the time: 'You can dip your garlic bread in my mussel sauce any day mate.'

Fans were quickly in uproar at the close snaps with one follower writing 'what about Char?!' while another wrote 'You and @charlottedawsy lasted long then'.

A heartbroken fan who had clearly invested in the pair said: 'I just can't believe it! I thought these 2 were forever' followed by another comment 'Im gutted, thought him and Charlotte were in Love.'
