Bride and groom: Rachel and fiance Alex Bourne will marry in Claridge's on Sunday
Six weeks after Rachel Stevens was robbed of her engagement ring, she has found a replacement just in time for her wedding.
The Strictly Come Dancing runner-up, 31, was left shaken after muggers stole her ring and other jewellery when she was ambushed on the doorstep of her north London home on June 9.
But it appears the ring’s insurance must have come through in time for her nuptials this Sunday after she was spotted flashing a new diamond today.
Rachel and her fiancé Alex Bourne were spotted today running some last-minute errands near their home before the lavish ceremony at Claridge’s Hotel this weekend.
New rock: Rachel has a new diamond ring to replace her stolen one
The former S Club singer’s temporary plain band on her engagement finger has now been replaced by a pricey diamond.
Wearing a black jumpsuit and Christian Louboutin heels, Rachel appeared slimmer than usual, prompting speculation she may have lost a few pounds to fit into her wedding dress.
She was also carrying a large bottle of mineral water to help keep her skin glowing in preparation for her big day.
Rachel and Alex are planning to wed in a star-studded ceremony in the Mayfair hotel on Sunday.
Among the rumoured guests is departing Strictly judge Arlene Phillips and her dance partner Vincent Simone.
Speaking of her wedding recently, Rachel said: ‘I’m going all out, a meringue dress. I’m so excited. It’s something you hopefully only do once. ‘I’m a traditional girl, romantic.’
Rachel said she doubted she would be inviting any of her former S Club bandmates, because they were no longer in touch.
She explained: ‘t’s a celebration and you know, we just want all our closest friends and families and people we love around us and we can’t wait for the big day.’
Rachel Stevens has confessed that she developed ‘tanorexia’ when she appeared on Strictly Come Dancing – as she poses make-up free for a beauty campaign.
