Former Home and Away star Luke Jacobz has finally married his fiancée Raychel Stuart, three years after their original planned wedding date.

The couple had first planned to get married in November 2020, but they were forced to postpone their wedding twice due to lockdowns caused by the Covid-19 pandemic.

Thankfully, the pair finally became husband and wife on June 3 after marrying in a small and intimate ceremony in Sydney, New Idea reports.

Jacobz, who played Angelo Rosetta in the Australian soap, revealed that he had started to lose hope that he would ever get to marry Stuart, adding that the pair are both "thrilled" that their "lifelong dream" has finally become a reality.

The bride even arrived to the ceremony 40 minutes early, before being walked down the aisle by Jacobz's mother's partner, John, in a moment that Jacobz described as "really special".

Stuart revealed that seeing her fiancé waiting for her at the end of the aisle felt "unreal" and "dreamlike", while Jacobz joked that he used up all of the tissues intended for his new wife.

"I was a mess," he said. "When I saw Raychel I just lost it because we've been waiting so long for it to happen. I ended up using all the tissues, and not Raychel which was part of the plan."

After their five-year engagement and wedding, the couple revealed that they are hoping to start a family after they have enjoyed their honeymoon in the US.

Jacobz starred in Home and Away as police officer Angelo from 2008 until 2011, with his character getting involved in a tumultuous relationship with Charlie Buckton and shooting dead his colleague Jack Holden in a shock storyline.

He made a brief return in 2020 to investigate Ross Nixon's murder, with Jacobz telling Digital Spy that he was pleased to receive a mixed reaction from fans to his return.

"I love those kinds of responses, I think they're great!" he said.

"You can't have a show where you love everyone. There's got to be someone you don't like, and I know that there are fans out there that aren't going to like Angelo being back again - he's a bit mean!"
