Westlife star Shane Filan and his wife Gillian looked out of this world as they celebrated their 20th wedding anniversary in style.

The musician, 44, and his wife got married at a lavish ceremony on December 28, 2003, at Ballintubber Abbey in Ireland. It was followed by a gorgeous reception at Ashford Castle in County Mayo. 20 years on, the duo went all out to celebrate the huge milestone of their marriage by returning to where it all happened.

Shane and Gillian went back to Ashford Castle to celebrate and the former took to social media to share the stunning photos from the evening. The first snap showed Shane rocking black trousers and a black button-up shirt as well as a white blazer. His wife looked stunning in a long-sleeved black sequinned dress with a thigh-high slit.

She placed her hand on his stomach while he wrapped his arm around her waist as they posed next to a luxurious Christmas tree.
