Former Crystal Palace star Mark Bright marries Ian Wright's estranged sister Dionne - after Arsenal legend revealed two decade family feud

Former Crystal Palace striker Mark Bright has married the estranged sister of his ex-team-mate Ian Wright.

Bright had formed a formidable partnership with Wright when they played together at Crystal Palace from 1986 to 1991, before the latter moved to Arsenal.

The pair became close friends off the pitch and, over the years, have been photographed together at social functions on numerous occasions.

During an interview on the True Geordie podcast in 2019, Wright revealed that Bright was dating his sister Dionne.

Wright revealed at the time that he had not spoken to Dionne for 15 years, claiming that she had been 'disrespectful' to his second wife Nancy soon after the couple got together.
