Brayden Bowers and Christina Mandrell are officially husband and wife!
On Tuesday, January 21, the Bachelor Nation couple revealed they secretly tied the knot on December 12, 2024. They gave fans a sneak peek at their big day in a wedding video shared via Bachelor Nation’s YouTube page.
“We just got a marriage license. Nobody knows!” Bowers, 26, remarked. Unlike their January 2024 proposal on The Golden Bachelor’s live Golden Wedding special, they wanted to keep this relationship milestone a secret — for a little while, anyway. “Nobody knows about this,” he said, to which Mandrell added, “Except for the people driving by when we get married in the gazebo.”
The pair said “I do” in a small gazebo in front of a small lake. Although Mandrell’s young daughter, Blakely — whom she welcomed in a past relationship — was sick for the big day, she was a “trooper” and filmed the pair’s vows and served as their flower girl.
This is an ongoing story.
