Academy Award-winning actress Michelle Yeoh surprised fans and friends alike when she recently revealed that she had tied the knot with her partner of 19 years, Jean Todt. The intimate wedding ceremony took place in Geneva, Switzerland, and Yeoh took to social media to share the happy news with her followers.

In a heartwarming Instagram post, Yeoh shared a collection of photos from the wedding alongside a caption expressing her joy and gratitude. "19 years and YES!! we are married!!" she wrote. "We love you and here's to many more to come ??¤????????¤?????????"

The post quickly garnered attention, with fans, co-stars, and friends flooding the comments section with congratulatory messages. Among those who sent their well wishes was former Formula 1 driver Felipe Massa, who had actually been one of the first to reveal the news of Yeoh and Todt's wedding on his own Instagram account.

Massa shared several photos from the ceremony, including one where Yeoh can be seen beaming while holding her Academy Award for Best Actress, which she won earlier this year for her incredible performance in "Everything Everywhere All at Once." The former racer also included a program from the wedding that detailed the couple's journey, from their first meeting in Shanghai in 2004 to Todt's proposal in July of that same year.

"Today, after 6992 days on 27th July 2023 in Geneva, surrounded by loving family and friends, we are so happy to celebrate this special moment together," the program read.

Although the couple had kept their wedding under wraps, Todt finally confirmed the news on social media, expressing his happiness and thanking Massa for discreetly sharing the announcement. "Now that my other son @MassaFelipe19 has 'discreetly' spread the good news, I can happily confirm the union with the Love of my life, Michelle," he tweeted.

Yeoh's wedding to Todt marks a significant milestone in their relationship, which has spanned almost two decades. The 60-year-old actress has long been admired for her talent and grace, and her recent Oscar win only solidified her status as a trailblazer in the industry. As the first actress of Southeast Asian descent to win a Best Actress Oscar, Yeoh used her acceptance speech to inspire others to dream big and believe in the power of possibility.

"For all the little girls and boys who look like me watching tonight, this is a beacon of hope and possibility," she said. "This is proof to dream big, and dreams do come true."

As Yeoh and Todt begin this new chapter of their lives together, fans and well-wishers can't help but feel a sense of joy and hope, knowing that love can endure and dreams can be realized, no matter the passage of time.
