Silvio Berlusconi has married his fiancée in a secret wedding at his private chapel, a friend has claimed.

The three-time Italian premier, 77, is said to have wed former TV showgirl Francesca Pascale, 28, at a church inside his palatial villa near Milan, three weeks ago.

The couple, who met when Miss Pascale was a teenage activist in his Forza Italia party, have been knocked in recent weeks by allegations that their relationship is ‘a sham’.

Miss Pascale is seeking Euro 10million damages after a TV station broadcast claims by Bulgarian actress Michele Bonev that she is in fact a lesbian. She says the comments are defamatory.

Now close friend ‘Bunga Bunga’ girl Marythell Polanco has said that she was invited to a secret ceremony, which took place just days before Miss Bonev’s claims surfaced.

Asked on Italian radio if the couple would get married, the Dominican model and singer revealed: ‘They are already married.’

She told Italian station Radio2: ‘They invited me but I couldn’t go because I was in labour with my son.

Czech officials say President Milos Zeman needs to use a wheelchair after he injured his right knee, limiting his duties for up to six weeks.

The 69-year-old Zeman spent a night at a Prague hospital after falling at his residence on the way to the bathroom Wednesday, according to Health Minister Martin Holcat. The president, who damaged cartilage in the knee but won’t need surgery, was discharged Thursday.

Zeman will be recovering at the presidential castle in Lany, just outside Prague. His condition has forced him to cancel planned trips for the next few weeks.

Zeman, a chain smoker with a well-documented soft spot for alcohol, was recently diagnosed with diabetes. Holcat said alcohol didn’t play a role in Zeman’s injury.

Amorous fish could be responsible for a mysterious humming noise keeping people awake at night.

Residents in a part of Southampton, Hamsphire, have been struggling to get to sleep because of the puzzling noise, which starts at 10pm and drones on all night.

Some people have even moved away from the affected area around Hythe and are sleeping on friends’ sofas to escape the nightmare.

Now scientists are studying whether the noise could be being caused by fish having sex in an estuary nearby.

Midshipman male fish let out a distinctive drone to let females know they are searching for a mate.

The noise can go on for hours and often increases in volume as competing males attempt to out-hum each other.

Incredibly, scientists say the sound can be amplified by bouncing off buildings and ships.

The National Oceanography Centre in Southampton was unable to shed any light on the mystery.

However, the Scottish Association for Marine Science claimed fish could be responsible for the bizarre buzzing sound.

The din has so far sparked dozens of complaints from residents suffering sleepless nights, who have come up with a number of other theories themselves.

New Forest District Council has now received more than 30 complaints about the irritating hum.

A spokesman said noise monitoring equipment had been installed in several properties in a bid to track down the origin of the sound.

Lamborghini today unveiled the world’s most expensive car – a super-aggressive model costing a staggering £3.36 million.

The jaw-dropping Lamborghini Veneno Roadster is a limited edition hypercar which goes without a roof.

It has been designed by the Italian firm to drive like a race car while being entirely road legal – making it one of the most extreme vehicles ever built.

Lamborghini has fitted the Veneno Roadster with a 750bhp V12 engine which gives the topless motor a 0-62mph time of just 2.9 seconds and a top speed of 220mph.
The radical machine, made of lightweight carbon fibre, follows the hardtop version which was limited to just three and came with a £3 million price-tag.

This is more than ten times the price of the firm’s Aventador model while the same figure could buy 335 Ford Fiestas.

Lamborghini claim every detail of the car’s body has been designed to boost downforce and minimalise drag in an attempt to optimise its handling on the road and track.

It uses a 6.5-litre engine and has a super-fast gearbox which sends the huge power to all four wheels.շ

The car was launched as part of Lamborghini’s 50th anniversary with the nine models being delivered in 2014.

A British diver has set a new world record for the longest warm water scuba dive by spending more than two days underwater.

Sean McGahern, 38, managed to eat, drink and sleep during his 49 hours and 56 minutes at the bottom of the Mediterranean in Malta.

He remained submerged despite enduring strong winds, currents, surge and one metre waves to complete his impressive feat.

Sean, originally from Brighton, East Sussex, kept himself busy by cleaning up the debris that had accumulated on the bottom of the seabed at St George’s Bay.

He spent hours removing rubble including bottles and deck chairs, which were brought up to the surface by the dive team from World Record Diving Malta team and the St. John’s Rescue Corp, who assisted him in his record breaking attempt.

His fiancee and fellow diver Mikaela Papagiorcopulo kept him company and offered kisses of encouragement to help him complete his dive.

He joked and smiled as he emerged from the waters exhausted but ecstatic at his feat and spent the day celebrating.

Sean managed to beat the previous record set by Will Goodman in 2010 which stood at 48 hours, 8 minutes and seven seconds by over an hour.
