It seems that Milo Ventimiglia, the heartthrob best known for his roles in 'Gilmore Girls' and 'This Is Us,' has taken a page right out of a Hollywood script with a surprise wedding. Earlier this year, he secretly tied the knot with stunning model Jarah Mariano, and it’s just the scoop we needed to spice up our Malibu summer gossip. The couple, who kept their romance under wraps, first sparked dating buzz back in 2022.
Ventimiglia has always been the picture of privacy. He once shared with 'People' in 2017 that staying "invisible" is essential for him, saying, "I try and remain as anonymous and invisible as I can so it doesn’t take away from the experience of the men that I play." Looks like he managed to keep this major life event low-key too!
Jarah Mariano, with her roots deep in Kauai, Hawaii, and a vibrant life that took her to California and eventually New York City, is no stranger to the spotlight herself. This native Hawaiian-Korean beauty has graced campaigns for Abercrombie & Fitch, Armani Exchange, and caught eyes in 'Sports Illustrated’s Swimsuit Issue' back in 2008. A surfer at heart, Mariano’s Instagram is a window into her wave-catching, sun-kissed lifestyle.
Her crossover from the beaches of Kauai to California's sun-soaked shores happened when she was just a child. She later moved to NYC, the city that never sleeps, to chase her education at Pace University, diving into Speech Communications with a focus on Media Studies.
The couple kept their wedding intimate and sweet. Wearing matching white ensembles and leis, they said "I do" in a private ceremony that was all about family and close friends. The whispers of their romance turned into full-blown rumors when Ventimiglia was spotted with a new accessory – a wedding band!
Interestingly, fans first got a hunch about the duo from the ever-watchful Deuxmoi on Instagram in 2022, the go-to source for celebrity tea. What followed was a champagne-popping post, which surprisingly was the beginning of this love story that culminated in a secret wedding.
'Us Weekly' dished the final confirmation, revealing the couple had indeed sealed the deal in a ceremony that was just as low-key as their relationship has always been.
So while the couple continues to bask in the afterglow of their wedding, fans can't help but wonder – what's next for the newlyweds?
