Kochie said she would share a house with her daughter’s future in-laws, whom she has not yet met, for a week before Georgie married her German partner, Alex.
“We all shared a house with him and his parents before the wedding and we never met,” the 66-year-old explained.
“He’ll be Father Of The Bride or Nightmare On Elm Street,” he added laughing.
“It’s going to be a little fun.”
Kochie and his wife Libby have four adult children and eight grandchildren.
