In a surprising turn of events, former 'Real Housewives of Atlanta' star Cynthia Bailey has set tongues wagging with a Valentine's Day wedding video that she shared on social media. The clip, set to Luther Vandross' romantic ballad 'So Amazing,' showcases Bailey and an unidentified gentleman enjoying what appears to be their special day.
The video begins with the arrival of two white Rolls Royce vehicles at a grand venue, setting the stage for a lavish affair. We catch a glimpse of Bailey slipping into a stunning white corseted gown, accompanied by close-ups of her sparkling diamond ring and spritzing herself with perfume before confidently facing the camera.
Interestingly, Bailey's handsome suitor remains a mystery as his face is never shown throughout the video. We see him sipping a cocktail in front of a fireplace, and later, the couple departs the venue with sparklers lighting up the night. The video concludes with a heartwarming embrace between Bailey and her companion, showcasing her radiant smile.
No wedding guests make an appearance in the video, leaving fans to speculate about the intimate nature of this supposed wedding celebration. Bailey has yet to respond to inquiries about the validity of the wedding, leaving her followers eager for answers.
If this is indeed a marriage for Bailey, it would mark her first since finalizing her divorce from sportscaster Mike Hill in December 2022. The couple's October 2020 wedding was featured on Season 13 of 'RHOA' and marked Bailey's departure from the show. Prior to Hill, Bailey was married to Peter Thomas from 2010 to 2017, their relationship extensively documented on Bravo cameras.
Though Cynthia Bailey has not confirmed the marriage, her loved ones and famous friends expressed their delight at her potential new chapter. Porsha Williams Guobadia, who recently announced her return to 'RHOA,' commented on the video, calling Bailey 'the cutest bride.' Bailey's sister, Mallory Bailey, and daughter, Noelle Robinson, showered her with red heart emojis, while reality stars Mia Thorton and Mary Cosby congratulated her on the possible nuptials.
Encouragingly, many of Bailey's fans applauded her for keeping this possible marriage under wraps. They commend her for not seeking public attention or media coverage for her relationship and appreciate that this could be her true, deeply personal and private union.
While some viewers speculated whether the video was a spoof created with influencer Derek Blanks, he took to his Instagram Stories to clarify that he is not the unidentified groom. Blanks identified the groom as fashion designer Dedrick HideokiHagiwara Thomas, whose striking beard bears resemblance to the man in the video. However, Thomas has not addressed the video publicly, leaving fans eager for more information.
As we wait for Cynthia Bailey to address the speculation surrounding her wedding video, fans and followers continue to express their excitement for her potential new chapter. Whether this is a real wedding or not, Cynthia Bailey has certainly captured the attention and imagination of many with this valentine's day surprise.
