A close friend to Snow Patrol’s Johnny McDaid has revealed he will marry Courteney Cox on her 50th birthday next month.

The wedding will take place on 15th June in Courteney’s Los Angeles home and is expected to be an intimate affair.

Courteney has been selling the event as her birthday party, but has told guests to wear white, dress smart and expect a big surprise.

The pair, who got together last year, sparked marriage rumours in February when Courteney was spotted wearing what appeared to be an engagement ring.

A selection of family members and close friends, including Jennifer Aniston and musician Ed Sheeran who set the couple up, are expected to be in attendance.

McDaid’s friend says: “Johnny and Courteney are madly in love and they want it to be special. They can’t think of a better time to become a family than on her birthday.”

Here’s hoping these aren’t just rumours!
