AceShowbiz - Star Jones is a married woman for the second time. She tied the knot with fiance Ricardo Lugo on Sunday, March 25 in the Bahamas. They celebrated their marriage with 150 guests, including a crew of celebrities, on a Royal Caribbean cruise.
The ceremony was part of several-day celebration which also included a 56th birthday party of the bride on Saturday, March 24. Beyonce Knowles' mother Tina Knowles-Lawson and "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" alum Paedra Parks were seen among guests.
Tina posted on her Instagram account a picture of her alongside Holly Robinson Peete, Lela Rochon and others at the wed. She captioned it, "With all my beautiful fly girls on the seas here to celebrate the love and Union of Star Jones and Ricardo."
Star hinted at the wedding in a video she posted on Instagram on Friday, March 23. She captioned it, "This is the face of #purejoy & #Happiness." Wearing fur shawl and sunglasses on top of her head, she said in the video, "This is the happiest weekend of my entire life."
Star and Ricardo were engaged in October 2017 and they have been together since 2016. To announce the engagement, she posted a picture of her smiling to the camera on Instagram. She captioned it, "There appears to be a heatwave going across the Midwest. The extra heat is from the sun shining on my heart. The bells of happiness are ringing right now."
In July 2016, the couple attended the 8th Annual Children's Museum of the East End Family Affair in Bridgehampton, New York, with Ricardo's son, Jake. Since then, she has showed off their relationship, sharing photos and videos of their moments together on social media.
It's the second marriage for Star. Previously, she was married to investment banker Al Reynolds in April 2004. They announced their split in March 2008.
