Stormzy surprises guests by crashing a WEDDING and posing for snaps with the bride and groom

Stormzy crashed a wedding at his Manchester hotel on Saturday, and delighted guests in attendance by posing for pictures with the bride and groom.

The rapper, 28, sported a low-key black tracksuit, looking much more casual than the rest of the wedding party.

He hid behind a face covering as he snuck in to the reception before some guests realised who he was, prompting them to scream with excitement. 

The Croydon-born star, real name Michael Ebenezer Kwadjo Omari Owuo Jr., walked behind the bride as she was having her photo taken with her bridesmaids and stood on the steps behind them before they could turn around.

He was more than happy to pose for pictures as onlookers whipped out their phones.

The encounter occurred just hours before he was due to take to the stage at the AO Arena in Manchester on Saturday as part of his current Heavy is the Head Tour. 

It comes after Stormzy’s wealth shot up to £4.2 million despite the previous cancellation of his biggest tour to date.

His firm Stormzy Limited rose £400,000 in value up to £3.4 million and the Hashtag Merky Touring Limited made a £860,000 profit in the 12 months up to the end of April last year.

He paid himself £850,000 after the bumper year in dividend payments from the touring company.

Stormzy was due to play a massive month-long tour in April 2021 which was shelved because of lockdown restrictions.

The Heavy is the Head Tour was rescheduled to begin in March this year.

It includes three nights at the London O2 Arena as well as two nights in Dublin and other arenas around the UK. 

Revenue in Hashtag Merky Touring is believed to include earnings from the tour as the gigs were due to take place during the year covered by the accounts.

The tour is to back up his best selling 2019 album Heavy is the Head, his second best-selling album release.
