Bride-to-be Kylie to take husband’s surname

SINGER Kylie Minogue has revealed she plans to take her husband’s name when she gets married.

The Australian star, who is soon to marry fiance and actor Joshua Sasse, said taking a different name “makes a statement”.

It will be an even bigger statement for the star, whose name has been recognised around the globe both as an actor in Neighbours and as a singer, for almost 30 years.

In an interview with The Daily Mail, she said: “Kylie Sasse is a great name... Kylie Minogue has never exactly tripped off the tongue. I’ll definitely be taking Sasse but there will be Minogue in there somewhere.”

Minogue (48) met her husband-to-be in 2015 when she made a guest appearance on the US series Galavant, which he starred in.

Almost 20 years her junior, Minogue said: “When I look into Josh’s eyes, he is all I see and that makes me very happy.”

During the interview, Minogue said she was “about to disappear for the whole of January”, but did not divulge any plans in detail.
