Celebrity Mound

Newlywed shock jock Howard Stern was on hand to cheer his new bride complete the New York City Marathon in style.

Beth Ostrosky finished Sunday in 4 hours, 15 minutes – much better than the five-hour target the 36-year-old former model was aiming for.

“This was the happiest day of my life,” said Ostrosky, who ran to raise money for Long Island’s North Shore Animal League. (not marrying Howard? I would have thought that was the happiest day – guess not)

“Isn’t she beautiful?” Stern gushed as daughter Ashley, 15, also hugged her stepmom.

Stern, 54, who married Ostrosky last month, had done his part that morning: Making a carb-loaded breakfast of bagels stuffed with peanut butter and bananas.

“She ate a ton,” he said.

More food was on the way after the race. “We’re going to celebrate with some sushi and some pasta,” Ostrosky said. “A lot of sushi and pasta.”

Ostrosky said what kept her going most through the more than 26-mile course was, “I just kept thinking about seeing Howard and Ashley on the finish line.”

Howard Stern and his longtime girlfriend Beth Ostrosky were married in New York City on Friday night, according to guests who attended the celebration.

The guest list for the wedding, held at the restaurant Le Cirque, included Joan Rivers, Barbara Walters, Billy Joel and wife Katie Lee, Jimmy Kimmel, Sarah Silverman and Stern’s radio co-host, Robin Quivers.

Stern, 54, and Ostrosky, 36, were joined in a ceremony officiated by Mark Consuelos, the husband of Kelly Ripa, who also attended. Billy Joel sang two songs, and Chevy Chase delivered a raunchy roast, said one guest.

“Beth is the most beautiful bride I’ve ever seen,” said Stern pal Dominic Barbara. (Ostrosky wore Marchesa.) “The vows were from each others’ hearts. It was gentle and soft and beautiful. People were crying.”

After 11 p.m., Joan Rivers walked out holding a bouquet of cream roses. “I danced with Howard,” she said. “The wedding was fabulous, everyone had a great, great time.”

A Very Long Engagement
The ceremony follows a long engagement – and a change of wedding venue – for the couple.

In March, Ostrosky said they’d decided to revise their plans to get married in Hamptons and to have a city wedding instead. “We’re going to get our friends together at a restaurant, very low-key,” she said.

Stern first announced the engagement on his Sirius Satellite radio show on Valentine’s Day last year.

When he proposed, Stern presented Ostrosky with a 5.2 carat diamond ring. “I love you. You’re everything to me,” Stern said he told her. “I’m asking you to spend the rest of your life with me.”

This is the first marriage for Ostrosky and the second for Stern.
