Howard and illustrator Katie married in a secret ceremony in Oxfordshire on January 2, after dating since 2010.
Their wedding was later confirmed by the singer’s spokesman, who said: “I can confirm Howard Donald and Katie Halil were married at a private ceremony for close family and friends on January 2.”
Howard is already a father to two daughters – 16-year-old Grace and ten-year-old Lola – from two separate relationships.
The mother of his elder daughter is Victoria Piddington, while his younger daughter is from his relationship with former model Marie-Christine Musswessels.
Katie, who graduated in graphic art and design, has worked with Donald’s bandmates by producing artwork for Mark Owen’s solo releases and animating the video for Gary Barlow’s Since I Saw You Last.
