Claire Sweeney reunites with pal Jessie Wallace at DJ Fat Tony’s wedding as they celebrate 23 years of friendship with sweet throwback
Claire Sweeney posted an affectionate flashback photo with her friend Jessie Wallace, marking their 23-year friendship anniversary, following a glamorous reunion at a high-profile wedding event during the weekend.
54-year-old actor from Coronation Street shared a set of photos on Instagram showing a happy couple, with one picture taken about two decades ago and another recent one.
At Liza Minnelli’s birthday bash in 2003, Claire and her fellow soap opera actress, then aged 53 (Jessie), opted for black ensembles during the event.
On Saturday, I had the pleasure of snapping the second shot at a spectacular event – the extravagant wedding of none other than DJ Fat Tony and his dashing partner, Stavros Agapiou. Caught in their stunning attire, the duo graced the star-studded gathering with their glamorous presence.
Reflecting on the beautiful friendship spanning over two decades, Claire pens down this touching tribute, “Here are photos captured 23 years apart.

Our gatherings are usually filled with hearty laughter, dear Jessica Wallace_official. You continue to grow older, wiser, and more radiant each day, sending love your way ❤️.
In simpler terms, Tony, who is 58 years old, and Stavros, aged 32, got engaged back in October 2023, and they tied the knot in a grand wedding in London over the weekend.
It’s said that both Kate Moss and Gemma Collins served as maid of honor roles, while celebrities like Boy George, Davina McCall, the Beckhams (David and Victoria), and Kylie Minogue were expected to join in the festivities.
During the start of the celebrations, Claire uploaded a series of stylish photos from her hotel room onto Instagram.
Claire was accompanied by her 13-year-old son Jaxon, whom she has with her ex Daniel Reilly, as well as Boy George, during the preparations for the event where she was initially expected to be a bridesmaid.
On that special day, I gracefully embodied elegance in a shimmering silver gown adorned with floral sequins and cascading feathers on the sleeves, creating an unforgettable impression.
Instead of letting her clothes speak for themselves, she accentuated her style with a cross pendant and sleeked back her golden hair.


As I stood by my son Jaxon, resplendent in his black tuxedo and red bowtie, I couldn’t help but swell with pride, every inch the proud mother that day.
63-year-old singer Boy George, a longtime close friend of the groom DJ Tony, also attended and became part of the gathering.
Boy George flaunted his distinctive fashion sense, donning a patterned shirt paired with a sleek black blazer and pants, accessorized with stylish dark sneakers.
The musician known for “The Karma Chameleon” was requested by Tony to serve as his best man. He accessorized his outfit with a distinctive blue hat and bold smoky eye makeup.
This afternoon, I shared a video on my social media channels, capturing the moment Jaxon and I hopped into a taxi en route to our latest destination – a stunning wedding venue.
She turned and surveyed the sights of London, then offered a peek at Jaxon, who was smartly dressed in a suit and boots, seated next to her.
‘We are on the way to DJ Fat Tony’s wedding, you’re looking lovely Jaxon,’ Claire said.



Just hours ahead of his nuptials, DJ Fat Tony gushed over the ‘happiest chapter of my life’.
As a devoted admirer, I found myself moved by Tony Marnach, or more famously known as Fat Tony, who took to Instagram and shared a heartfelt message, ‘Love Wins,’ mere hours before his upcoming nuptials.
Tony added in the caption: ‘Here we stand at the beginning… The happiest chapter of my life x’
It’s not shocking at all given Tony’s high profile in the celebrity world, that the wedding had a diverse group of famous guests and a show-stopping performance by Kylie Minogue during the night’s festivities, as per reports.
