SYDNEY, Nov 29 (Reuters) - Anthony Albanese became the first Australian prime minister to tie the knot while in office when he married his partner Jodie Haydon in a private ceremony on Saturday.

The wedding was widely expected to be held this year after Albanese proposed to Haydon on Valentine's Day last year. But the date and details of the ceremony were kept tightly under wraps.
