While ABC's "Scandal" is on hiatus, its leading lady, Kerry Washington, has caused a scandal of her own by marrying San Francisco 46ners cornerback Ezenwa Nnamdi Asomugha. See their wedding certificate inside....
With a storyline straight out of her hit tv series, "Scandal", E! News confirms that Hollywood royalty, Kerry Washington, quietly wed 31-year-old San Francisco 49ers cornerback Ezenwa Nnamdi Asomugha on June 24 in Hailey, Idaho. A rep from the county clerk's office told US Weekly,
"It has been recorded in the Blaine County clerk's office that Nnamdi Asomugha and Kerry Washington have been married on the 24th of June in the town of Hailey, Idaho."
ABC News reports that Kerry's parents Earl and Valerie Washington signed the license as witnesses to the nuptials and Chisaraokwu Asomugha officiated the ceremony.
Sports gossip site TerezOwens.com was the first to report the nuptials, saying, "We just received word that actress Kerry Washington has married NFL player Nnamdi Asomugha."
31-year-old Nnamdi, 31, is a three-time Pro Bowler, who played for the Oakland Raiders and the Philadelphia Eagles before signing with the 49ers this year.
Though the couple had been dating since last summer, their relationship was very "under the radar" and the marriage comes as a shock to most of Kerry's fans. Previously, Kerry was engaged to actor David Moscow for three years until they parted ways in 2007.
A rep for Washington told ABC News,“I don’t comment on my client’s personal life.” And Nnamdi's rep said,“We don’t comment on our clients’ personal lives.”
Kerry is currently on the cover of Vanity Fair's August 2013 issue.
Congrats Kerry!
