Less than a week for kim to tie the knot with west

It is less than a week to go before she is set to tie the knot with her fiancé Kanye West.

And with all the intense workouts Kim Kardashian has been doing lately, it seems the 33-year-old can still afford to indulge in some guilty pleasures.

Arriving in Paris on Sunday, Kim - who will be married for the third time next Saturday - was seen tucking into an ice cream as she took a romantic stroll with Kanye.

Kim is famously tough on herself when it comes to her workout regime, and just last week posted an Instagram snap of herself showing off her toned abs.

So it seems there really is no need for a pre-wedding diet, as Kim showed off her incredible physique in Paris, wearing a pair of skin-tight blue jeans and plunging neckline top.

It has to be said that the bride and groom-to-be looked remarkably calm as took a stroll together in the French capital.

While the couple's guests have been instructed to fly into Paris for a rehearsal dinner on May 23, it has been reported that the wedding might not actually happen in the city of love.

Kanye's friend Ermanno confirmed to the MailOnline that the pair will marry in Italy in front of 1000 guests at the famous Florentine landmark Forte Belvedere.

Elisa Di Lupo, a spokeswoman for the Mayor of Florence, also confirmed to the Associated Press the couple would wed in Florence next Saturday and revealed they had rented the imposing fort for 300,000 euros ($410,000). She said a Protestant minister will preside over the nuptials.

However E! News and TMZ have reported the couple will marry in Versailles, just outside of Paris.

Kim and Kanye visited the Palace of Versailles for an official tour in January - but their request to have their wedding at the venue was said to have been denied.

Meanwhile, Florence newspaper la Nazione has reported that Kim and Kanye will marry in a chateau near Paris next Saturday, and instead head to Florence for the after-party.

The report claims around 1,600 guests have been invited to the Chateau d'Usse, where the wedding will be held.

Despite the conflicting reports, it seems the loved-up couple are taking the wedding preparation in their stride.

Arsene Wenger relieved to end trophy drought

LONDON -- Arsene Wenger said Arsenal's suffering over the last nine years meant the relief and joy was greater after they ended their long wait for silverware.
The Frenchman's side came from 2-0 down to beat Hull 3-2 -- courtesy of goals from Santi Cazorla, Laurent Koscielny and Aaron Ramsey -- and win the FA Cup.
It was the fifth time Wenger has triumphed in the competition but Arsenal's first trophy since 2005.
And the manager, who again said he will stay at Arsenal, stated in a news conference: "It is a relief and happiness because we were under severe pressure to win and we didn't start well. We responded well after a demonstration of how not to start a cup final.
"In the end it finished well so it is a big minute of happiness and we waited a long time for that. The happiness is linked sometimes with the suffering and the time you have to wait."
Wenger was also an FA Cup winner in 1998, 2002, 2003 and 2005,  but he said the need to finally secure more silverware made this his most significant final.
"It was more important than all the others," he added. "We have made twice the double but we were not under the pressure we were under. It was an important moment in the life of this team. To lose today would have been a major setback. To win is a good platform to come back stronger next year."
Wenger drew level with former Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson, also a five-time winner, and he said: "I am in good company. I won now five times, it is not too bad."
The 64-year-old is out of contract in the summer but reiterated that he expects to sign a new deal.
"Look, that normally should happen, yes," he said. "We are in very normal circumstances now. It was never a question of leaving, it was a question of doing the right job for this squad."
