Issa Rae married her longtime boyfriend, Louis Diame, in the South of France over the weekend, announcing the surprise news in an Instagram post Monday morning. “Impromptu photo shoot in a custom @verawang dress...,” Rae sarcastically captioned the post. “My girls came to help me, but they all coincidentally had on the same dress! They were sooooo embarrassed... Then I took a few flicks with Somebody’s Husband.”
The Insecure creator and star shared a handful of photos from the wedding, including her first public post to her Instagram feed of Diame, who wore a red Dolce & Gabbana suit. She also thanked her wedding planner, crediting the team for making the wedding at Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat “feel so real and special.” Rae, 36, has been famously tight-lipped about businessman Diame, who she has been dating for nearly a decade. Even their engagement was hush-hush, the big hint being an April 2019 Essence magazine cover on which she sported an engagement ring.
