Fiance’s shock at bride-to-be’s walk down aisle at East Yorkshire wedding
A bride with a rare disorder affecting her mobility surprised her husband-to-be by walking down the aisle on their wedding day in East Yorkshire.
Carrie Redhead, 27, was born with the digestive condition intestinal lymphangiectasia, or Waldmann’s disease, which causes the loss of special proteins from sufferers’ intestines.
Two years ago her condition deteriorated, leaving her having to use a wheelchair.
But at their wedding ceremony in Faxfleet in October, her fiance, Joel Redhead, had no idea she was determined to walk down the aisle.
With a video of Mrs Redhead’s walk having now been viewed online millions of times, she says she wants to inspire and empower people facing similar situations.
