Social media is rejoicing after the news that Issa Rae and her fiancé Louis Diame tied the knot in a private wedding ceremony in the South of France over the weekend.
In her typical jovial style, Issa announced the news on Instagram.
“A) Impromptu photo shoot in a custom @verawanggang dress. B) My girls came to help me, but they all coincidentally had on the same dress! They were sooooo embarrassed. C) Then I took a few flicks with Somebody’s Husband. Big thanks to @whiteedenweddings for being so gracious and accommodating and making this feel so real and special,” she wrote.
The couple were reported to have gotten engaged in 2019, but neither confirmed the news.
Issa’s co-stars Jay Ellis and Yvonne Orji later confirmed the engagement news to reporters that year.
“We’re very excited for her,” Orji said to Entertainment Tonight.
Jay then added, “We all found out in different ways because we’re all on different text chains. We talk at different times, so we all found out at different times in different ways.”
During an interview with Vogue, Issa made it clear that she is never speaking about her man in any of her interviews.
“I don’t want any input,” she told the magazine. “As a writer, you put everything on the table. I’ll take input on kids if I’m going to have kids. How do I not kill the kids? Work? Give me the input. Any other aspect of my life? Give me the input. But who I’m f–king? No, I don’t need input. I’m good.”
Issa has been very private about her relationship, as she should be. It seems in Hollywood, the most successful relationships are the ones not making it a point to be all over the blogs.
Congratulations to Issa Rae and her new husband, Louis Diame.
