Ramos, who left Sevilla to join Real Madrid in 2005 when he was just 19, joked after revealing the wedding location: “We’ve decided to get married in Seville because we’ve been in Madrid for so long now, it means there’ll be less people.

"It’s going to be a special wedding because we’re special.

“It’s a very special moment for us after being together for so long and forming such a fantastic family with three little ones who fill our lives with passion.

“We felt it was the ideal moment and we wanted our children to enjoy it because when they were younger it’s not something they would understand so much.”

Ramos, 32, also revealed they would ask their guests to leave phones and cameras at the door of the still-secret location, so the celebs attending the after-party could enjoy themselves without fear of being filmed or photographed.

The wedding after-party is expected to take place at a private estate just outside Seville with Spanish media speculating the religious ceremony will be at Seville Cathedral.

Pilar, 40, hinted a world-famous singer may join them to perform after they become man and wife.

She said: “There’s going to be something very big but I can’t say what.

The star couple, dubbed the Posh and Becks of Spain when they started dating in September 2012, have three sons - Sergio, four, Marcos, three, and Alejandro, who was born last March.

Ramos used to date a former Miss Spain who is now married to Cadiz star Sergio Sanchez.

Rubio, who was born near Madrid, was voted the sexiest woman in the world by Spain’s FHM magazine in 2008 and 2009.

She made a name for herself as a reporter on a light entertainment show before starting to present some of Spain’s most famous television talent shows.
