MrBeast has tied the knot with fellow content creator Thea Booysen in an intimate wedding on Richard Branson’s Necker Island.
The ceremony took place a week ago in front of 70 friends and family members at the 74-acre private island resort.<\/p>\n
“This is clich\u00e9, but it was heaven,” Booysen told People magazine.<\/p>\n
“We were so happy, and there was so much love. We work a lot and don’t get to be around all our friends and family, so to have everyone in one place was really special.<\/p>\n
“We decided we want to start doing something like this every year, where we put aside a week to have our friends and family join us to spend time together, and all the guests said the same thing.”<\/p>\n
Booysen and the YouTube star, real name Jimmy Donaldson, had their first dance at the reception to Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars’ Die With a Smile, the outlet reported.<\/p>\n
Donaldson first met Booysen, a fellow gamer and internet personality, in 2022 during a visit to her home country of South Africa.<\/p>\n
“When I met him, I was quite surprised how down-to-earth he was, and also how intelligent he was,” Booysen recalled. “I thought YouTubers were just sort of a persona, but when I met him, I was surprised to see that he’s actually a nice guy.”<\/p>\n
The couple made their first public appearance at the Kids’ Choice Awards in April 2022.<\/p>\n
