Yellowstone star Josh Lucas marries meteorologist Brianna Ruffalo in Vatican City ceremony

The star of a hit noughties sitcom has married his TV meteorologist partner in an intimate ceremony inside Vatican City.

Actor Josh Lucas and partner Brianna Ruffalo are officially hitched, just one year after getting engaged in Italy.

The Yellowstone star and the US television meteorologist tied the knot on July 18 during a breathtaking wedding ceremony held in none other than Vatican City.

“Mr and Mrs,” Ruffalo wrote on Instagram, sharing a carousel of dreamy black-and-white images from the ceremony.

“Incredibly blessed to receive this sacrament together inside the heart of the Catholic Church and holy city.”

Lucas, best known for playing the “other guy” in Sweet Home Alabama, wore a classic black tux while Ruffalo stunned in a strapless lace gown.

In the comments, he left a sweet note to his new bride: “I love you. Easily one of the greatest days of my life. I am so so grateful.”

Over on his own Instagram, the 54-year-old actor gave fans a behind-the-scenes peek at the nuptials, thanking everyone who helped pull it off.

“A huge thank you to deeply talented @caterinaerrani_photography and to @weddings_italy @paolo_nassi @JinaneKafrouny who helped make the dream of wedding in the #vatican come true,” he wrote alongside a candid shot of the couple walking the cobblestone streets of Vatican City. “Many many people to thank for this to come.”

Their wedding comes almost two years after the couple first met – and just over a year after getting engaged on another trip to Italy.

“Almost 2 years ago this fall, and with no expectations, Josh walked into my life,” Ruffalo shared at the time. “And we knew almost immediately we had each found our person in a way we’ve never experienced – on every level.”

“This was the easiest and best question I’ve ever answered,” she added. “So, here’s to forever with my love, my best friend.”
