Inside Leo Messi's lavish wedding: Bride's dress arrived on private jet with TWO bodyguards... but will Barcelona superstar's big day be spoiled by 'rift between mother and wife'?

Lionel Messi, the world's greatest footballer, marries his childhood sweetheart today (left) in a lavish Argentinian ceremony (inset) but claims of a family rift threatened to overshadow the day. More than 250 friends and family - including some of football's biggest stars - have jetted to Argentina (right),
450 police officers are on duty and the bride's dress is said to have arrived from Spain on its own private jet accompanied by two bodyguards. But a source close to the Messi family told MailOnline that relations between his family and his fiancée Antonella Roccuzzo have been strained for nearly seven years. The Messi family dismissed reports of a feud between the families as 'nonsense'.
