How embarrassing…It’s one thing having to contend with your partner dumping you but to have your fiance walk out weeks before your due to get married in front of tons of famous faces is taking the levels of embarrassment to a whole other level.

This has just happened to Rachel Hunter.

Rod Stewart‘s ex was due to wed her Ice Hockey beau Jarret Stoll in a lavish wedding ceremony due to take place on August 14 on a beach in California, but a severe case of wedding jitters (I’m guessing) has led to Jarret calling off the nuptials without so much as an explanation to his poor wife to be.

Could it be the enormous age gap between them that is the reason behind his bolt? After all he’s a mere 27 years of age compared to her 40 – she has two children with her ex, Rod, he has none…maybe the pressure just got too much or maybe he simply is a coward.

According to reports in the Sun newspaper a ‘source’ said:

” She is absolutely devastated. Everything was in place for their wedding – she had the venue, the designer dress, the guest list.

“She has absolutely no idea why Jarret has done this. It sounds like a classic case of cold feet. He is a fair bit younger than her.”

Sharon Stone and Michelle Pfeiffer were among the celebrities lined up to attend…If I were Rach I’d still have the party – a ‘Glad I escaped that loser’ party!

His loss I say.
