Aussie model Miranda Kerr has something big to celebrate!

The former Victoria’s Secret Angel could soon be walking down the aisle after her brother Matthew revealed he is set to marry his boyfriend, lead recognition consultant James Wright.

The happy couple shared the exciting news on Facebook last year.

“Love you guys. Biggest congrats darling hearts xx,” his mother, Therese Kerr, commented on the post.

Since then, a loved-up Matty, as he is known by his family, has shared a number of snaps of the lovebirds, including a recent selfie of the duo from a recent weekend getaway via instagram.

Matty caption the shot: “Weekend at Mackerel with my hubby.”

Earlier this month, James, who is originally from London but has been living in Australia since 2007, took to his blog to discuss marriage equality.

“In my excitement at becoming Australian I proposed to my boyfriend Matt and he said yes. But what do I next?,” the 36-year-old posted.

He went on to write, “…I just want to marry the man I love, in the country I love and have chosen to call home.”

Back in November 2011, Miranda shared a video promoting gay marriage on her Kora Organics blog, which has since been removed.

‘I just wanted to share this video with you. Having a gay brother myself, it’s something that is very close to my heart and which I totally support in every way. It’s time for Marriage Equality,’ she said.

Meanwhile, a close friend told Sydney Confidential that the whole family are “absolutely delighted for them both and  wish them all the love and happiness in the world.”
