10 years of dating and two children later, Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Hilarie Burton have officially tied the knot!
WATCH: Jeffrey dishes on getting odd sexual requests
The One Tree Hill actress took to Instagram last night to confirm the exciting news, revealing they said their “I Do’s” on October 5.
“This past weekend was the best of my entire life,” the beloved star captioned a photo of the couple cuddling on their wedding day.”Jeff and I just want to put it out there that WE GOT MARRIED! For real,” she continued.
“We’ve lived as husband and wife for a decade. We’ve built a family, and a farm and found our community. For years, publications have reported that we got married in 2014 or 2015 and that I’ve been married and divorced before. All untrue. But WE knew our truth. So it felt silly to try and correct anything.”
Hilarie went on to admit that she knew the former Grey’s Anatomy star was The One from the moment she laid eyes on him!
“Here’s the God’s honest fact: From the moment I met @jeffreydeanmorgan, he was my husband,” she wrote. “Rather than make vows right out of the gate, we lived them. For over ten years. The good times and the bad. Standing up there with our children at our sides – celebrating all that has been – was bliss.”
Jeffrey— who currently plays Negan on The Walking Dead— also showered his wife in love, sharing an adorable black-and-white photo of the couple from their special day.
“I’d say words… but there aren’t any. Mrs Morgan…. I love you,” he captioned the adorable photo. “Thank you for making me the luckiest man in the world.”
The loved up couple went public with their relationship in 2009. They now share two children together— Augustus who was born in March 2010 and George who was welcomed into the world in February 2018.
Months after she gave birth to their “miracle baby” girl, Hilarie opened up about her fertility journey and her struggle to conceive.
“It took a long time for Jeffrey and I to have this baby,” she said in a honest Instagram post. “The first time I got pregnant, it took a year and a half. I surprised him on Christmas with baby Seahawk booties. We cried. We celebrated. We picked out names. And we lost that baby. More losses followed, and as so many couples know, it was heartbreaking. It still is heartbreaking.”
“And every morning of the five years it took us, I’d open my computer at the kitchen table and see the news and I’d grow bitter over the endless parade of celebrities showing off their bumps and babies,” she went on to write.
“I’d weep out of jealousy for how easy it was for them. Didn’t they know something could go wrong? Didn’t they know that there were other women out there struggling? It pained me to see the corporate sponsored baby showers and magazine covers capitalizing on this human miracle that wasn’t happening for us.”
She concluded her message by telling her followers, ““So now that folks know she’s here, I don’t want her birth to cause any other woman to weep at her kitchen table. If anything, my wish is that she would restore hope for others. Fertility is a fickle thing. And for the other couples out there who have had dark days, we want to introduce our miracle baby to you and send you our love and support in finding yours. Please meet George Virginia Morgan. She was born February 16th. Her daddy delivered her. We love her very much.”
