JLS star Marvin Humes said he is "wishing the weeks away" until he marries The Saturdays singer Rochelle Wiseman. The pair took friends, including Rochelle's bandmate Vanessa White, to Majorca for a holiday ahead of their wedding at Blenheim Palace this summer. Rochelle told Hello! Magazine another celebrity friend, Myleene Klass, could still perform at the wedding despite the collapse of her own marriage to Graham Quinn who will be an usher at the ceremony. She said: "Myleene says she's still very much up for it, but we'll see how it goes. "First and foremost she's our friend and I don't want to commit her to anything right now. Whatever she wants to do is fine with us." Marvin, who found fame with JLS on The X Factor in 2008, said time had "gone so fast" since he proposed. He said: "It seems like only yesterday that we were in the Maldives and I was asking Rochelle to be my wife. I guess we've been wishing the weeks away because we are just so excited and so are our families and friends." He said he was not sure how he would react on the "emotional" day, saying: "But I'm not sure if I'll be crying and stuff because I'm not really that kind of guy. "I can't say what I'll be like for sure until I'm in that moment - for all I know, I could end up a blubbering mess. I do know that Rochelle will look incredible. She'll be the most beautiful bride."
