Australian international football star Jackson Irvine has finally tied the knot with his long-time partner Jemilla Pir after having to postpone the ceremony because he was drunk for two days.
The former Burton Albion and Hull City midfielder, 31, led German side St. Pauli back to the top of the country after their 3-1 win over VFL Osnabruck on Sunday.
He was due to marry his fiancƩe Jemilla in Denmark on Tuesday, but the worst-wearing footballer forgot to bring his passport to the wedding, prompting Danish officials to refuse to hold the ceremony.
Jemilla, a tattoo artist, shared on Instagram what had happened, with the couple forced to postpone the job until he got back together.

“When you’re drunk for two days and forget to bring your passport to your wedding appointment,” she posted alongside three clown emojis.
“Let’s try again tomorrow,” she added. “(The party is still going on tonight).”
Luckily, everything went to plan the second time around, with Pir posting several photos to Instagram of the couple showing off their passports on the way to the venue.
The occasion was non-traditional, with Pir sharing photos of the happy couple dressed relatively casually with sunglasses as they cut the cake.
Another photo showed the newlyweds standing on the street afterward, holding flaming torches as people around them applauded.
Irvine has had a successful career in European football after signing for Celtic from Melbourne Victory in 2010.
