Jayne’s a model bride-to-be at three-day hen party

MODEL Jayne Higgins celebrated her approaching wedding with a three-day hen party extravaganza in Dubai recently. The beauty from Magherafelt, Co. Derry, is to wed her long-term boyfriend, businessman Shane Malone, this summer. Signed to Andrea Roche’s modelling agency, Jayne, pictured, and Shane moved to the United Arab Emirates two years ago, where he set up his own business and she works in retail.

Excitement is now building for the couple’s Irish wedding, which will be a star-studded affair. The Diary can reveal that Ireland rugby favourite Tommy Bowe will be Shane’s best man on the day. Jayne is expected to have her best friend and fellow model, Holly Carpenter, by her side when she walks down the aisle.

The happy couple got engaged last year during a romantic break to Paris when Shane presented his girlfriend with a bespoke rock.
