Love bites as Leah and Denis say ‘I do’
BRIAN O’Driscoll went to the Sexton wedding on his own and left after the speeches to catch a flight.
O’Driscoll was flying to Madrid to meet wife Amy and daughter Sadie, who had travelled ahead to attend another rugby wedding, that of former Leinster and Ireland player Denis Hickie.
The one-time leading Ireland try scorer married his model girlfriend Leah Barker yesterday. Denis, 37, a UCD Commerce graduate, retired from rugby in 2007. He has been dating Leah for over four years. The former Leinster player now works as a development and relationship manager for Sandyford-based Mainstream Renewable Power and also as a BBC rugby commentator.
