New York, NY – Don Lemon, the former CNN anchor who now hosts his own streaming program “The Don Lemon Show,” recently tied the knot with his longtime partner, Tim Malone. The couple exchanged vows during a beautiful ceremony at Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church in midtown Manhattan with approximately 140 guests in attendance. Among the attendees were various celebrities such as “Today” show host Matt Lauer, “View” co-hosts Sunny Hostin, Joy Behar, and Ana Navarro, as well as Alec Baldwin and Clive Davis.
The pair, who met eight years ago at Almond Restaurant in Bridgehampton, New York, decided to make a public statement with their wedding and involve their loved ones in the celebration. Despite having the option for a quiet ceremony, Lemon and Malone opted for a big wedding to share their special day with family and friends. The ceremony incorporated marriage traditions from each of their families and was officiated by their friend, United States ambassador to the United Nations, Linda Thomas-Greenfield.
The newlyweds made a grand entrance into the church as “What a Wonderful World” played in the background, and they exited to the tune of “Signed, Sealed, Delivered.” Lemon, 58, and Malone, 40, both sported velvet tuxedos by Suit Supply in different shades, with Lemon in green and Malone in navy. The couple’s three dogs also played a special part in the ceremony, adding a unique touch to the wedding.
Following the ceremony, the guests will reportedly continue the celebration at Ralph Lauren’s Polo bar. The wedding was not only a celebration of love and commitment but also marked Malone’s birthday and the five-year anniversary of their engagement. The event showcased the couple’s enduring love and their desire to make a meaningful statement with their union.
Despite his usual last-minute approach, Lemon expressed a bit of nervousness about the wedding day, with Malone taking the lead in planning the event. The couple’s special day was filled with love, joy, and the support of their friends and family, as they embarked on this new chapter in their lives together. Lemon and Malone’s wedding was a symbol of love and inclusivity, making a powerful statement about their relationship and the importance of celebrating love in all its forms.
