Glenn McGrath found love in Sara Leonardi and did not hesitate to get married at his home in Cronulla in Australia in a very private ceremony that almost none but his children and his former wife's family were privy to.

McGrath lost Jane McGrath to breast cancer and spends a majority of his time for the foundation to raise awareness while raising his two children, Holly and James.

The wedding apparently took place yesterday with pink roses marking the lapel of his suit, the bouquet of flowers in the arms of the new bride as a mark of tribute to the love of Jane McGrath.

McGrath stood by first wife's trials with cancer and attributed her strength for him to enjoy the love of his life. It was hard to contemplate life without her until he met Sara in Cape Town and found himself unable to deny his feelings. And in testimony to new found love, McGrath has now kept his second marriage discreet.

Even Shane Warne, McGrath's former team mate with the Australian cricket team, was not aware of it. But when he did hear of it, he did not waste time getting on Twitter and disseminating the news as well as his congratulations:

Is it true Glenn McGrath got married today ?? Wow . . . Congrats pigeon hope your happy champion. Wish you all the best my friend

That would make him one more person delighted to see the speedster happy and in love again.
