Actress AnnaLynne McCord has wed former rugby union player Danny Cipriani in a ceremony in Los Angeles.
The 39-year-old found fame portraying Naomi Clark in the 2000s American television series 90210, which centred on the lives of wealthy Beverly Hills high-school students.
Speaking after Saturday's ceremony, she said she "married the love of my life" in an event she described as "perfect".
In a video shared on Instagram, she said: “I married the love of my life yesterday, and it’s real. It wasn’t a dream.
“This love is a grace upon my being.
“Every moment of this creation of this ceremony, every moment of ritual, every stolen glance, until we could just stand there holding hands, looking in each other’s eyes for a frozen moment that held the current of infinity.”
She went on to describe the ceremony as “incredibly timeless” and “a blessing”.
“The energies swirling around this wedding are all completely perfect,” she said.
“No misstep, no comment, no headline, not a single word and through or around this magical union with my magical beloved is anything less than a perfect divine design, and it only all feels like love to me.
“Words are beauty in the eye of the beholder, and I see only beauty, only love.
“Happy first day being AnnaLynne Cipriani to me.”
The pair used the US site Honeyfund, an online cash and honeymoon registry platform, to list different contributions guests could make towards the wedding.

The registry included donations for flowers, catering as well as the wedding cake, with guests also able to donate any amount from 10 US dollars (£7) up to 5,000 dollars (£3,600).
McCord later told the Sun on Sunday that they did not know the site was public and that they received death threats with people calling the couple “disgusting”.
She said: “Everyone was asking what they could give us.
“I was like, I have five blenders. I have everything for my home.
“We wrote on the wedding invite that in lieu of gifts we would love to feel our guests’ contributions in the flowers, music and photography on our big day.”

The couple started dating in 2024, shortly after the former England fly-half split from his ex-wife Victoria Rose, with the pair getting engaged in December 2025.
Cipriani has previously been in relationships with model Kelly Brook, the late television presenter Caroline Flack, actress Lindsay Lohan, and he was linked to TV personality Katie Price.
In 2021, he married mental health advocate Ms Rose in the Caribbean – but they split two years later.
McCord previously dated Prison Break star Dominic Purcell and they had an on-off relationship between 2011 and 2018.
McCord is also known for starring as Eden Lord in Nip/Tuck before starring in the hit teenage drama from 2008 until 2013.
She also appeared in the 2009’s Fired Up, 2012’s Excision and 2013’s Scorned before joining the cast of US soap Days Of Our Lives.
Cipriani, 38, retired from professional rugby in January 2024 following a colourful career that included winning 16 caps for England as well has two spells at Wasps and stints at Melbourne Rebels, Sale, Gloucester and Bath.
In 2025 he appeared as one of the 12 contestants on Celebrity Bear Hunt alongside Spice Girl Melanie Brown, Strictly Come Dancing judge Shirley Ballas, and former tennis player Boris Becker.
