Unprecedented behind-the-scenes access to Manchester United and England star Ella Toone as she prepares for one of the most important days of her life - her wedding - while still coming to terms with the loss of her biggest fan, her dad.\n \nShe opens up, alongside her fiancé, Joe Bunney, on the impact of losing her dad, how his absence will be felt on their big day and talks through the decision to ask her uncle to walk her down the aisle.\n \nA double Euros winner with the Lionesses, Toone has built her life around football. For Ella and Joe, maintaining a life outside of this is a challenge, never mind planning a wedding alongside an already hectic sporting calendar.\n\nSet across a rare 24-hour window on a day off, they discuss wedding plans over breakfast and reminisce about how they first met, before a busy afternoon that sees Ella fit in a haircut and then meet Joe at ET7 - the girls’ football academy they co-founded. Joe also opens up about his own football journey and the accident that forced him to rethink his future that led him into coaching.\n \nIn the evening, Ella, in her warm and funny style, hosts six of her bridesmaids for dinner as they discuss the hen do. Her sense of fun carries into the next morning as Ella and Joe attend a wedding dance class together ahead of their big day.\n \nHumour and heartbreak sit side by side in this day-in-the-life portrait of one of the Lionesses’ most charismatic players, on and off the pitch.
