PIPER BANS KIDS FROM WEDDING

British actress BILLIE PIPER has infuriated the family of her husband-to-be by banning children from her forthcoming wedding. The star, who is set to wed fellow actor Laurence Fox on New Year's Eve (31Dec07), has requested youngsters be kept away from the service. The move has angered Fox's uncle, producer Robert Fox - who has two young children aged nine and 11 - both of which he hoped to bring to the event. A source tells British newspaper The Mail On Sunday, "Robert is very upset and has made his opinions known. The Fox family are (sic) very traditional and think that weddings should be all about having children around. "We have received certain instructions for the day, one of which is that babies and young children are not allowed at the service." Earlier this month (Dec07) it was revealed the pair will hold their wedding reception in a pub owned by Piper's ex-husband, British DJ Chris Evans. Piper and 41-year-old Evans were divorced in June (07), after five years of marriage.
