Olivia Pope is good at keeping secrets, and it turns out — so is Kerry Washington. The star of the hit ABC show “Scandal” got married last month and no one even knew it.
The lucky groom? Nnamdi Asomugha of the San Francisco 49ers. (Via Entertainment Tonight)
*“The pair wed on June 24 in Blaine County, Idaho, and we have the marriage license to prove it. According to reports, the couple has been dating since last summer.” *(Via E! Online)
Washington is notoriously tight-lipped about her private life — so much so that the media didn’t even know the pair were dating.
That prompted a flurry of articles trying to get readers up to speed on Asomugha — all with a “here’s what you don’t know” theme. (Via Rolling Out, Us Weekly)
But they all generally seem to approve of the marriage. (Via PopSugar)
A writer for the pop culture blog NewNowNext says the secret wedding just makes him love Washington even more.
*“While every celeb with a pulse seems to sell the photos, or desperately try, of their nuptials, claiming they have no choice with all those paps and gossip mags, Miss Washington proved you can be an A-list star with a private life...”*
Asomugha is also a bit of an actor: he’s scored roles on “The Game,” “Leverage” and “Friday Night Lights.” Reported by Newsy 7 hours ago.
