Months after their second marriage proposal, KaladKaren and her longtime beau Luke Wrightson finally said “I do” in the latter’s hometown in North Yorkshire, England.
The actress-news anchor announced that she and Wrightson got married on Sunday, Sept. 8 at Raven Hall County Hotel, a cliff-top wedding venue with the “best overlooking views,” in Scarborough, North Yorkshire, England.
KaladKaren was a breathtaking bride in her Francis Libiran tube serpentina gown with a short wedding veil, while her partner looked dapper in his white-and-black suit with a bowtie, as seen on her Instagram post on Monday, Sept. 9.
Other photos showed the couple sharing a kiss at the ceremony, walking down the aisle at the garden venue, and posing for photos.
“The Wrightsons. 8th of September 2024. Wedding in the clouds. Luke and I dreamed of a beautiful sunny day in this fantastic cliff-top wedding venue in England. It’s supposed to have the best overlooking views in North Yorkshire,” she wrote. “On our wedding day, ironically, the views were covered by a thick fog! It was almost zero visibility!!!!!! What a one in a million chance!”

Despite the foggy weather, KaladKaren didn’t mind since she nevertheless married the love of her life, while being surrounded by their loved ones.
“Unlucky? Not at all. But marrying the love of my life surrounded by our dearest friends and families … makes me feel the luckiest woman alive! And hey, who else can say they got married in the clouds?! Mr. & Mrs L Wrightson,” she said.
The couple received well wishes from celebrities, drag performers, content creators, and KaladKaren’s colleagues in the comments, including Sassa Gurl, Adrian Lindayag, Kylie Verzosa, Mac Igarta, Bela Padilla, Enchong Dee, Karla Estrada, Francis Libiran, Jessy Mendiola, Awra Briguela, Rufa Mae Quinto, Astrid Mercury, and John Fedellaga.

In a recent interview with the Philippine Daily Inquirer, KaladKaren said it was her and Wrightson’s decision to get married. She also said that apart from being an advocate for LGBTQIA+ rights, she wanted their wedding to be remembered as a celebration of their love.
KaladKaren received a second marriage proposal from Wrightson in July 2024, four years after they got engaged on their home balcony during the pandemic. The couple dated for 12 years before tying the knot.
