Love was in the air this weekend, as Billy Crudup and Naomi Watts announced they got married! The two stars were first romantically linked in 2017 and have been together ever since. They apparently got hitched at a New York City courthouse and shared an adorable picture from the lovely day. And after they shared the confirmation of their nuptials, a wide array of big-name stars, including Gwyneth Paltrow and Mark Ruffalo, have been forwarding their congratulations.
The pair’s Instagram post was confirmation of their union, after rumors of their engagement had been swirling for months. While it was a courthouse wedding, the couple still wore stunning wedding attire. Billy Crudup wore a blue suit, while his new wife dawned a gorgeous floral gown designed by Oscar de la Renta.

The exciting marriage announcement prompted many comments from excited friends wanting to send the newlyweds well wishes. Mark Ruffalo made his own social media post dedicated to the happy couple.

Sarah Silverman used the opportunity to express her love for the two actors. Billy Crudup was a guest star on the comedian’s self-titled show back in the '00s, and Naomi Watts co-starred with Silverman in 2017's critically maligned The Book of Henry. The stand-up veteran commented:
Oh I love these two people!
Liev Schreiber sent his congratulations as well. Schreiber is actually an ex of the Mulholland Drive actress, as they were together for 11 years and share two children together. They are seemingly friendly though, as the Ray Donovan alum commended his former partner on her marriage. He said:

Billy Crudup and Naomi Watts are normally private about their relationship, so this confirmation is a welcome surprise. The two reportedly started dating after co-starring together on the Netflix's sexy therapist show, Gypsy, in which Watts portrayed a sexually frustrated woman. While the show was canceled after one season, the couple's real-life romance clearly lived on. They made their official red carpet debut at the SAG Awards in 2022 and always seem to be smiling and looking happy together. Watts, in particular, was absolutely glowing in her wedding dress on the big occasion. The designer of the matrimonial fit posted a closer image of the gown on their Instagram, which you can see below:
Congratulations to this power couple, and I hope to see more photos from the big day sometime soon! Fans of this duo can see their electric chemistry in Gypsy, which is streaming now for those with a Netflix subscription.
