Michelle Yeoh and Jean Todt marry 19 years after proposal
Academy Award winner Michelle Yeoh married former Ferrari CEO Jean Todt, the man she was proposed to nearly 20 years ago. At the ceremony in Geneva, Yeaoh held an Oscar statuette in her hand.
Nineteen years after former Ferrari CEO Jean Todt proposed to Michelle Yeoh, the lead actress of the Academy Award-winning film "Everything Everywhere All at Once", the couple married.
The wedding ceremony of the Academy Award-winning artist and motorsport executive took place in Geneva. Yeoh held the Oscar statue in her hand in the wedding photos.
Before Todt shared their marriage on social media, veteran Formula 1 driver Felipe Massa posted photos of the couple on Instagram.
Yeoh, 60, and Todt, 77, first met in Shanghai in June of 2004, according to a program from the Geneva wedding shared by Massa. "On 26th July 2004, J.T proposed to M.Y and she said YES!," the program said. "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.
Todt confirmed the marriage after Felipe posted on social media. "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," Todt tweeted.
For the ceremony, the famous artist chose a two-piece outfit in milky brown tones with long sleeves and a long skirt. She left her hair down and her makeup was simple. Todt, on the other hand, looked very stylish with a brooch he wore over a dark suit.
Earlier this year, Yeoh became the first Asian woman to win an Academy Award for best actress for her stunning performance in "Everything Everywhere All at Once".
