    Despite the hundreds of positive comments joining in on Vicky’s happiness, some trolls felt the need to leave an unkind message underneath her post.
    Referring to the wedding dresses, one follower wrote: “Not a fan of any of these.”
    A frustrated Vicky shared the comment on her Instagram Story and fired back: “Just a little note, over the course of the next year I will probably be sharing moments in the lead up to what I consider to be the most special day of my life.
    “I’m under no obligation to share these things, but I do so because I’m so giddy, proud and fit to burst with excitement about marrying Ercan.
    “And also because for the most part you guys have seen the highs and the lows – the journey it’s take to getting here over the last 15 years and it feels right that I share it with you.”
    She added: “This doesn’t however mean that this b******s is okay. So I’ll just say now if at any point you don’t agree with a decision we have made about our wedding, or if you don’t like something. You don not have to let me know.
    “This is our wedding and things will be done to our taste.
    “If you really have to say something, go and whinge in your group chat. That is what that’s for.”
    It comes after Vicky evealed that her wedding budget has “spiralled out of control” as she plans a week-long party, with 13 bridesmaids, FOUR dresses and a very surprising Towie star as flower girl.
    The TV favourite who is getting married in Italy, said planning her mega huge wedding has been “overwhelming” and “f****** expensive”.
    Speaking exclusively to The Sun, Vicky said: “I’m stressed, I’ve been planning a wedding. I have the world’s best wedding planner, Ercan is amazing and so supportive but I don’t know how people do it.

    Dad-of-three Jordan McKenzie-Pryce, 38, also took designer handbags and a Macbook, as well as £5,000 in cash, Chelmsford Crown Court heard.
    The items have never been returned and Mr Falcone, 34, is now terrified to leave his home, he told the court.
    The raid came just weeks after McKenzie-Pryce ambushed a man who was blasted with a shotgun.
    He was jailed for 12 years, with an extra two on licence for the burglary and firearms offences.

    He must now also pay Mr Falcone £25,000 in compensation.
    Mr Falcone, a dad-of-two, went on holiday with his family in September 2022.
    He left the house locked with a fully-engaged alarm system, a judge heard.
    But just days into the trip he got a call telling him his house had been burgled.
    Most read in Celebrity
    Cops searched McKenzie-Pryce’s home and found pictures of the stolen goods on his phone, along with a floor plan of Mr Falcone’s home.
    In a victim impact statement Mr Falcone said he and his wife now rarely leave the house because they’re afraid for their kids.
    He added: “The watch and other items have huge sentimental value. That watch I wore on my wedding day and I would have worn that until the time to pass it onto my son on his wedding day.
    “My entire life has been affected by this. I questioned at the time posting things on my social media and whether I would be a target. It shouldn’t be like this.”
    Prosecuting, Keith Hadrill said: “He found that items had been taken out of the house, a number of expensive items.
    “A gold Rolex, £5,000 in cash, a wedding ring worth £15,000, a total of £69,000.
    “He [Mr Falcone] said by reason of CCTV he can determine that the burglary occurred between 12am and 2.30am on September 5, 2022.”
    He added that voices could be heard in CCTV footage at that time.
    Defending McKenzie-Pryce, Lawrence McNulty said he had previously been offered a job in the music industry but had to leave when the company moved to the US.
    He said McKenzie-Pryce couldn’t follow because of his criminal record, and was forced back into criminality.

    Katie Price reveals real reason she was seen wearing wedding dresses – saying ‘I looked hideous’

    Speaking on her podcast, The Katie Price Show, the TV personality claimed her surgically-enhanced breasts made her look “large”.
    While Katie is engaged to car salesman Carl Woods, 34, she and her half-sister Sophie, 33, insisted they had been visiting a bridal shop to find outfits for their theatre tour.
    She said, “I tried on some wedding dresses and obviously I got papped in the shop, it was in the paper.
    “You said you had a call from someone, didn’t you? Tell them your answer,” she added to Sophie, who is also her agent.

    Her sibling revelled in telling the story about how the press had believed Katie was preparing to tie the knot once again.
    She said, “The Daily Mail got in touch and was like, ‘Oh, we’ve got some pictures of Kate in wedding dresses, is she getting married?’
    “I was like, ‘No, she’s just trying on outfits for our live show.’ I bet they were like. ‘What who wants to wear a wedding dress to that.’
    Katie replied, “But do you know what though? Where my boob are bigger from the last time I got married, I don’t know how many times bigger, trying on a wedding dress when you’ve got big boobs, it can make you look a lot larger than you really are.
    Most read in Showbiz
    “Cos they’re quite high-waisted from where the lining goes, it sits under my boobs and I looked hideous.”
    The three-times married star has had a notoriously colourful love life with lavish weddings, bitter break-ups and ongoing feuds.
    It looked like Katie had that very fairytale at one point when she married Peter Andre in 2005 after hitting it off on I’m A Celebrity a year earlier.
    The romance appeared to be her happily ever after following failed relationships with Dwight Yorke and Dane Bowers.
    Katie and Peter had two children together – Junior and Princess – and a £1m wedding fit for a Disney Princess, but things fizzled out and the pair had an acrimonious split in 2008.
    There was more heartache in the years that followed with Katie divorcing husbands Alex Reid and Kieran Hayler – with whom she had children Jett and Bunny – and she called it quits with former fiancé Kris Boyson, too.
    Katie recently rekindled her latest relationship with Carl.
    The pair ended their two year romance earlier this year after a turbulent year but appear back on track after some time apart.

    While reflecting on the marriage, she gave fans an update on what had happened to her infamous wedding gown.
    The pink garment, which set the star back an eye-watering £45,000, was designed by Isabell Kristensen and was laced with shimmering crystals all the way down its expansive skirt.
    It featured a 14ft long train and got everybody talking when the mum-of-five walked down the aisle in 2005.
    However, following her bitter split from the father of her kids Junior and Princess, Katie admitted she left the outfit to rot.

    Telling the crowd at her show, the TV personality said: “It’s been half eaten by rats. It was left in a bag in a container.”
    In somewhat better news, she admitted that she had managed to rescue parts of the outfit despite it being chewed by the rodents.
    She added: “So I have got it out, the top bit has sort of lost its crystals.
    “I tried to put it around me but I’ve had a few boob jobs since then but the skirt is still amazing.

    “I did want to wear it out tonight but I thought that would be a bit wrong.”
    Looking back fondly, she went onto say: “But it was an amazing dress, a beautiful skirt but it was so heavy.
    “Forget about the three hair pieces I had in my head and the crown.
    “It was like a workout every minute walking around in that!”
    During her live event, Katie refused to refer to her ex-hubby Peter by his first name and instead opted to label him as “the Aussie from Wembley”.
    Katie was left grinning as she attempted to shield her face with her microphone as a sea of boos flooded the theatre for her ex.
    During the show, Katie got personal as she indulged in a Q&A session with fans about her turbulent life and was left emotional as she received a series of supportive messages from all five of her children.
    Her fans were left cheering for the star as she performed two songs on stage despite being incredibly nervous.
    As well as belting out her 2017 track I Got U, the star also did a rendition of her yet-to-be-released cover version of We Don’t Have to Take Our Clothes Off.

    Vicky – who has teamed up with fashion retailers Style Cheat for her stunning new collection – insisted that her wedding is going to be huge, saying: “Expect a lot from my wedding – I’m going b***s to the wall.”
    Speaking exclusively to The Sun, Vicky said: “I’m stressed, I’ve been planning a wedding. I have the world’s best wedding planner, Ercan is amazing and so supportive but I don’t know how people do it.
    “Trying to work full-time, still make time for your partner and the dogs, and go to the gym and see your friends and also the new job at Heart – I’m finding it all overwhelming to say the least.
    “Also I can’t take my foot off the gas because weddings are just so f****** expensive.”

    Vicky said she’s trying her best to stay within her budget after hiring a celebrity wedding planner.
    Speaking about her pal Olivia Attwood’s £200,000 wedding, Vicky said: “I’ve seen Olivia’s wedding and I know myself, I’m planning one and I looked at her flowers and heard her budget and I went ‘yeah that’s accurate’.
    “It’s mental how much these things cost.
    “My budget is less than Olivia’s, but everyone’s budget is always less but my wedding planner is trying to do her best to manage my expectations and say ‘oh you might have to go for a few less flowers here’.
    Most read in Celebrity
    “But all that matters to me is that I marry Ercan in front of my friends and family and we all have an amazing time.
    “But it is already spiralling out of control.”
    Podcast host Vicky revealed that she won’t just have one bridal gown at her wedding – but she’s pulling out the stops with FOUR designer dresses for her “fairytale” day.
    “I’m not just going to have one dress, I’m going to have about four,” Vicky revealed.
    “I feel like I’ve been waiting to meet a man like Ercan for years, I’m 36 next week and I feel so lucky to have met this lovely man and be able to have this fairytale wedding.
    “I’m going b***s to the wall, expect a lot from my wedding.”
    Despite the growing cost, Vicky has decided that the wedding won’t be televised in a bid to keep things “intimate”.
    She told us at her Cheat Style launch party: “I love Olivia [Attwood], I love Ferne [McCann], I love Georgia [Kousoulou], all of these people with these amazing shows. I watch them, I’m a reality TV fan at the end of the day.
    “But lets not forget I’ve done a lot of reality TV over the years and it hasn’t always been the most enjoyable experience for me and I know doing something with Ercan would be so different but I’m just aware that I want to do this once.
    “It’s so special, I want it to be private and intimate and lovely.
    “But these things are expensive, if someone wants to give me loads of money to film my wedding, I would be torn, I would be conflicted.
    “But as it stands at the moment, there is no plans to make anything. We’re keeping it very private. But it will be all over my Instagram, I want everyone to see it.”
    Former I’m A Celeb queen Vicky said she will be going all out for her Italian wedding extravaganza – with 13 bridesmaids, hundreds of guests and a VERY surprising choice for her flower girl.
    “It is going to be big, we’re looking at a week long,” the Geordie beauty said.
    “I’ve got a massive support structure and family up north. He’s Turkish-Cypriot, so has a huge family.
    “We’re doing it in Italy, down the bottom
    “I’m so excited, our wedding planner is amazing, she does all the footballers, all the WAGS, she’s helping keep me calm when I’m sometimes stressed.
    “It’s just under a year, I’m starting my fittings, we’re getting dresses from The Wedding Club, dresses from Suzanne Neville, dresses from my favourite shops and designers, so I feel like I’m in safe hands.
    “I’ve asked all my girls from home to be my bridesmaids, I know it’s excessive but I have 13 mates from back home, my best mates from home. My sister is my maid of honour.”
    Vicky then revealed that Essex reality star and ex-Towie favourite Pete Wicks has bagged himself a leading role in her wedding.
    “I do have Pete Wicks as a flower girl,” she confessed.
    “Everyone thinks Pete is such a sourpuss but I know a different side to Pete and he is softer than everyone thinks.
    “He’s going to be walking down the aisle and throw some petals – he and my best mate Gaz.
    “I’m going to keep an eye on Pete around my bridesmaids, most of them are married now, so I definitely will be keeping an eye on him.”
    Vicky – who have been with Ercan together since 2019 – shared her key to a happy relationship as she praised him for letting her “shine” and visa-versa.
    “I know every relationship is different, I’m certainly not going to preach to anyone – I’ve had my fair share of bad relationships but with me and Ercan, the things that’s different is that we genuinely want the best for the other person,” Vicky told us.
    “There is no competition, there is no animosity.
    “I’ve been with men in the past where it always felt if I in some way did better than them, then it emasculated them.
    “Ercan is very kind and supportive and very content to let me shine, but also I feel the same way about him.
    “So communication, kindness, supporting each other – it’s nothing new, we all know those type of things.
    “But this is the first time I’ve found it in somebody, so I’m very lucky.”
    Vicky and Ercan got engaged in February 2022 in a romantic proposal in Dubai.
    Heart radio star Vicky celebrated the launch of her new Style Cheat range, which went live on November 2.
    The TV favourite looked sensational as she slipped into a green figure-hugging leather dress, before swapping to a sequin mini skirt and shirt.
    She said about the new collection: “I was blown away by the pieces, it was very my style, very fashion forward, I was so impressed by all the little details that I’d seen on catwalks for autumn/winter.
    “The clothes are flattering for women, it’s sexy, it hugs you in all the right places. I want girls to feel good wearing it.
    “It makes me feel confident and that’s just what I want the collection to be.”

    In August it was revealed that Katie was set to “get married in a surprise wedding” to fiance Carl – but her mum was “not happy”.
    The on-again, off-again pair – who first got together back in 2020 – revealed they were giving it another shot in June.
    Now Katie has sparked rumours they might be tying the knot, after posing in a huge wedding dress.
    The TV personality was a vision of beauty as she tried on a series of wedding gowns out in Worthing West Sussex.

    She looked happy as she beamed at the camera while showing off the stunning frocks.
    Katie twirled gracefully in a strapless, sparkling white wedding gown.
    To complete her stunning appearance, the star adorned her head with a dazzling, glitzy tiara.
    Her makeup looked flawless, and she was glowing.

    Back in August it was revealed that, “Katie is planning on having a secret wedding with Carl, then a big party afterwards,”.
    A source told OK!. “It will be soon. She loves the thrill of getting married and wants to do it again.”
    But one person who isn’t happy is her mum Amy, who previously made it clear she isn’t Carl’s biggest fan.
    The source continued: “Katie’s keen to run off and wed Carl at a register office.
    “The kids [Harvey, 21, Junior, 18, Princess, 16, Jett, who turns 10 this week, and Bunny, nine] will be there, but she won’t tell her mum until it’s done.
    “Katie knows Amy would be fuming and tell her not to do it.
    “She keeps suggesting to Carl they elope to Gretna Green.”
    Katie has been married three times, each time to three VERY different men.
    It comes after Katie recently treated herself to a break in Spain – splashing out on a £200 a night villa.
    The 45-year-old stayed in a two bed villa with its own pool, called Casa Del Amor.
