Olympic gold medalist Amy Williams has married a soldier she met on dating app Tinder 18 months ago.

The skeleton racer got engaged to Craig Ham after a 12 week whirlwind romance.

The couple got married at St Nicholas's church in Bathampton, Somerset, which Amy has attended since she was a little girl.

She told Hello! magazine that getting married had "topped" all of her other achievements.

The couple got engaged three months after meeting and Amy said she knew after two weeks that Craig was the man for her.

In fact, Amy says that it was complete chance that the couple met at all because the app uses your phone's GPS to find matches.

The app only suggested Craig because she was on a train from Bath to London and was passing through Hampshire at the time where Craig was based.

Craig, a warrant officer class two with the Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers, wore his ceremonial uniform for the wedding while Amy wore an Augusta Jones dress.

Amy won gold at the 2010 Winter Olympics in Canada, but announced her retirement in 2012 due to injury.
