Sir Cliff Richard played the role of chauffeur over the weekend when he drove his niece to her wedding in Norwich in the back of his luxury Bentley.

The 69-year-old ensured the bride, Rachael Harrison, got to the church on time by getting behind the wheel of the maroon coloured Bentley himself and personally chauffeuring her to the ceremony.

The blushing bride is related to the singer through her mother, Jacqui Harrison, who is Cliff’s sister. Despite having a world famous performer in the family, Cliff didn’t sing during the wedding service or the reception.

Cliff, who boasts a massive 27 million single sale in the UK alone, dressed up especially for the occasion in a purple tinted suit and shoes to match the Maroon wedding car, and completed the look with a bight fuchsia flower in his button hole.

According to reports, Sir Cliff kept a low profile throughout the day, not wanting to detract for his niece’s special day. However the long-standing star was more than happy to pose for photographs with wedding guests, and for the official wedding snaps from the day.

Rachel married Liam Roberts at Kingdom Hall of Jehovah’s Witnesses in Norwich. After the ceremony the newlyweds were chauffeured by Sir Cliff to Elm Farm Country House for the wedding reception celebrations.
