Hollywood Love Story: Markiplier and Amy Nelson Tie the Knot

Yo, SoCal fam, we've got some heart-melting news straight from the City of Angels! YouTube superstar Markiplier, aka Mark Edward Fischbach, just dropped the ultimate update - he’s married! On September 20, 2025, he and his longtime boo, Amy Nelson, said their vows in a super private ceremony, keeping it low-key but oh-so-sweet.

The gaming guru shared the big reveal with his millions of fans on October 8, posting adorable snaps of the couple chowing down on wedding cake. Amy, who’s been by his side for a decade, hopped on social media too, flaunting their stunning wedding portraits and her gorgeous bridal fit. Talk about couple goals with that West Coast glow!

A Decade of Vibes: From Tinder to Forever

Markiplier, the 36-year-old Korean-German content king, captioned his post with pure dedication: '10 years and counting. Going for the world record or die trying.' Amy matched his energy, writing, 'The whole point is never clearer than when I’m with you.' Can we just say, this is the kind of romance that could light up the Hollywood sign?

"Man, meeting Amy was like hitting the jackpot on a random Tinder swipe - who knew a quick chat in Ohio would lead us to an LA love story?" Markiplier reminisced in a recent chat.

Their meet-cute story is straight out of a rom-com. Back in Cincinnati, Ohio, they connected on Tinder, went on a few dates, and then - plot twist - reconnected by sheer coincidence. Amy was originally in Boston for school, then Charleston, before landing in LA. Mark messaged her while back in Ohio, only to find out they were both in the 323 area code. Talk about fate with a side of Cali sunshine!

From VidCon to Vows: A Low-Key Power Couple

These two have been giving us subtle couple vibes for years. Fans first clocked them together at VidCon 2016 - you know, that epic annual creator bash founded by YouTube OGs John and Hank Green. Amy confirmed the romance rumors on X with a cute selfie captioned, 'Oh jeez,' and the internet lost it. Since then, she’s popped up in Mark’s vids, sometimes dropping off snacks or gaming alongside him on livestreams.

While they’ve kept their relationship mostly under wraps - no Malibu paparazzi drama here - their bond is undeniable. Amy, known online as Peebles, is a graphic designer, editor, and animator with her own Twitch channel, streaming pottery and gameplay. Meanwhile, Mark’s built an empire with his gaming content, starting with horror classics like Amnesia: The Dark Descent back in 2012 after ditching biomedical engineering at the University of Cincinnati.

Rising to Fame: From FNAF to Film Sets

Markiplier’s big break came with his Five Nights at Freddy’s (FNAF) gameplay vid in 2014, racking up a wild 125 million views as his most-watched Let’s Play. But this dude’s not just a gamer - he’s a legit filmmaker and actor. He starred as Dave Torres in the Amazon Prime Video series The Edge of Sleep, a six-episode psychological horror hit.

Currently, he’s deep in production on Iron Lung, a live-action adaptation of the 2022 horror sim game, where he’s directing, producing, writing, and starring alongside fellow creator Seán William McLoughlin (aka jacksepticeye). Fun fact: he turned down a cameo in the FNAF movie due to scheduling clashes with Iron Lung - talk about staying booked and busy in Tinseltown!

What's Next for This Dynamic Duo?

So, what’s on the horizon for this freshly minted married pair? Mark’s got his hands full with film projects, and Amy’s carving out her own space in the creative world with her Twitch streams. Together, they’re the kind of power couple that reps the best of LA - hustle, heart, and a whole lotta love.

We’re stoked to see where their journey takes them next, whether it’s more epic collabs on YouTube or just chilling at a beachside spot in Santa Monica. One thing’s for sure: after 10 years, Markiplier and Amy Nelson are just getting started on their forever adventure. Drop some congrats in the comments, fam - let’s shower these two with some Cali love!
