Gilmore Girls fans and Jess Mariano lovers alike will be thrilled (and potentially heartbroken?) to learn that our favorite snarky, afraid-of-swans, swoon-worthy guy is officially married. Milo Ventimiglia, who also starred opposite Mandy Moore on This Is Us, got married to Jarah Mariano in a private ceremony earlier this year. We love that Jarah's last name is Mariano, considering that's also the last name of Milo's beloved character! It's ~kismet~.
The wedding was planned by Simply Troy and the pics are beautiful. Considering the couple has been keeping things low-key, we don't know much about the timeline of their relationship — other than the fact Instagram account Deuxmoi posted a photo of them together in 2022 and Jarah had a ring by the summer of 2023, via People. Here's everything we know about the happy couple!

What has Milo Ventimiglia said about having a family?
Milo Ventimiglia admitted during his time on This Is Us that the series made him think about family life more deeply. “It doesn’t make me want to have a family any more than I think I’m built to want a strong family unit,” he told US Weekly in 2017. “I’m present in the space in my life that when it presents itself and it’s right, I’m sure it will work out.”
“I have nieces and nephews. I feel like I get to act out a little bit of my own paternal want to influence a young mind, shape a young mind, to approach life in a positive way," he continued.
