Jessica Szohr has married her fiance Brad Richardson. The 'Gossip Girl' star, 39, exchanged vows with the former professional ice hockey player - father of her daughter Bowie - in front of friends and family including her former TV co-star Chace Crawford earlier this month with 'The Vampire Diaries' actress Nina Dobrev acting as her maid of honour.

Jessica confirmed the happy news over the weekend by sharing a series of snaps from her big day on her Instagram page, captioning the post: "Tying the knot".

The couple got together in 2019 and they became parents to Bowie in January 2022.

Brad - who previously played for hockey teams including the Los Angeles Kings and the Vancouver Canucksis - is also dad to daughter Lexi from his previous marriage to Lauren Hunt.

Jessica previously dated her 'Gossip Girl' co-star Ed Westwick as well as NFL star Aaron Rodgers.

After the couple welcomed their daughter Bowie, Jessica shared a sweet message declaring they had added some "sweetness" to their family.

In a post on Instagram, she wrote: "Added a little special sweetness to our family and some new direction to our journey on 1-11-21.

"This journey with Brad and Lexi has been one of the most beautiful experiences of my life.

"To then create a human that is absolutely perfect in our eyes and put a feeling in my heart I didn't know existed is beyond words. I have all the feels and she is really something special."

The following year, Jessica confirmed the couple's engagement by sharing a picture of her engagement ring, writing: "I said yes!"
