Anderson to finally marry Kenyan fiance

Gillian Anderson is "excited" to be finally marrying her Kenyan fiance - 16 months after they cancelled their wedding.

Gillian Anderson is "excited" to be finally marrying her Kenyan fiance - 16 months after they cancelled their wedding.

The former X-Files star was forced to postpone her nuptials to journalist Julian Ozanne following a series of setbacks last year, which included a hospital stay after falling down a flight of stairs at the couple's £1.4m (€2m) London home.

Anderson says: "We are so happy and excited. We're marrying on the island of Lamu."

Of her chosen wedding destination, Anderson explains: "I've always felt an incredible pull towards Africa and once I got there all of a sudden it made sense.

"It's just kind of lodged in my soul."
