ALL Blacks star Ardie Savea tied the knot with his partner Saskia Hartmann-Hechenberger in Fiji, three days before Christmas according to the New Zealand Herald.

A report on the the New Zealand Herald said friends and family, including their 12-month-old daughter Kobe, watched as the couple tied the knot at the Sheraton Resort in Denarau.

Savea’s older brother and former All Black Julian Savea, 28, had travelled from France, where he plays for Toulon, for the island nuptials, with wife Fatima and their daughter Jude.

Savea chose a large pear-shaped diamond for his bride-to-be in South Africa and proposed just days after Kobe’s birth in December 2017.

Last month, Hartmann-Hechenberger was treated to a fun-filled hen’s party by her close girlfriends in the couple’s hometown of Wellington.
