‘Madam Secretary' co-stars Téa Leoni and Tim Daly are now real-life spouses
The pair of actors, who shared the screen on the CBS political drama, will now share a life together as husband and wife, making their TV romance a reality. Leoni, 59, and Daly, 69, tied the knot Sunday in a private ceremony, The Times confirmed Tuesday.
Leoni and Daly began dating in the summer of 2014 and starred in "Madam Secretary" as United States Secretary of State Elizabeth McCord and her scholar husband Henry McCord. The series aired on CBS from September 2014 to December 2019.
A representative for Leoni did not confirm additional details about the newlyweds' ceremony, but People reported that the actors' intimate nuptials took place in New York with only immediate family as attendees.
Leoni and Daly began their romance just before the former finalized her divorce with "X Files" star David Duchovny. Leoni and Duchovny wed in 1997 after meeting on "The Tonight Show" and share two adult children, actor West Duchovny and Kyd Miller Duchovny. Before David Duchovny, Leoni was married to TV producer Neil Joseph Tardio Jr. from 1991 to 1995.
Daly's marriage to Leoni marks his second: He was previously married to theater actor Amy Van Nostrand. The exes share children Sam and Emelyn.
Before crossing paths on "Madam Secretary," both Leoni and Daly had established their screen careers with a variety of TV and film credits. Leoni came to the CBS series with films including "Bad Boys," "Spanglish" and "Jurassic Park III" under her belt. She also appeared in the series "The Naked Truth" and "Flying Blind." Daly's resume includes the series "Wings" and "Private Practice," and he voiced Superman in several animated projects.
In a March 2024 interview with the "Really Famous With Kara Mayer Robinson" podcast, Daly spoke to its host about finding love on "Madam Secretary." He said his views about starting a committed relationship later in his life changed once he met Leoni.
"It's the deepest, most fun, most truly intimate relationship I've ever had," he said.

The Summer I Turned Pretty's Lola Tung Reveals Taylor Swift's Gesture Made Her ‘Nearly' Pass Out
The Summer I Turned Pretty star Lola Tung recently shared a moment that had her fangirling, and it involved Taylor Swift. While promoting her show alongside co-stars Christopher Briney and Gavin Casalegno, Tung recalled an unforgettable Eras Tour experience that nearly made her 'pass out' from excitement. Appearing on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on July 15, Lola Tung revealed that during the 2023 stop of Taylor Swift's Eras Tour, she found herself right by the stage with The Summer I Turned Pretty co-creator Jenny Han. The actress lit up while recounting what happened when Swift noticed her and her friends. 'She looked at us, and she kind of waved and was like, 'I love you guys,'' Tung said, demonstrating the heart-hand gesture the pop icon directed at them. 'I nearly passed out. It was great,' she added. Fans of The Summer I Turned Pretty will recognize the interconnectedness of this moment, not just for Tung as a Swiftie, but because Swift's music has been part of the show since Season 1. As the actress said, 'We were right by the stage when she played 'False God,' which was also on the show.' When Fallon asked Tung to name her favorite Swift track that featured in the series, she admitted it was a tough choice. ''The Way I Loved You' is a great one. 'Delicate' is great as well,' she said. In an earlier interview with People, Tung expressed how much Swift's music meant to her even before the show. 'I used to listen to Fearless, Speak Now, and Red on my CD player when I was younger. When I would go to sleep, I would listen to them,' she stated. With the third and final season of The Summer I Turned Pretty premiering July 16 on Prime Video, fans can expect more Taylor Swift tracks to be part of the story. The trailer alone features 'Daylight' from Lover and a title track from Red.

Watch: 'Summer I Turned Pretty' trio talk final season on 'Tonight'
The first two episodes of "The Summer I Turned Pretty" arrive on Prime Video Wednesday. Photo courtesy of Amazon MGM Studios July 16 (UPI) -- The Summer I Turned Pretty stars Lola Tung, Gavin Casalegno and Christopher Briney are teasing the upcoming third and final season of the show, which arrives Wednesday. The trio stopped by The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon Tuesday to discuss the love triangle between Belly (Tung) and brothers Jeremiah (Casalegno) and Conrad (Briney). "Season 2 ended with a major cliffhanger. This was a big deal. I mean, your character, Belly, chose Jeremiah over Conrad," Fallon recapped before asking Tung what she thought about that ending. "I'm all for her following her heart," the actress responded. "And she's doing what she needs to do in the moment, and following her heart in that moment and in every moment." In a snippet shared during the show, viewers see Belly watching Jeremiah play Twister when Conrad calls him. Jeremiah asks Belly to answer and she and Conrad have a quick, awkward exchange. When asked about Season 3, Tung said, "I think it's a lot more of the emotional rollercoaster you're used to, I guess, and also, you know, there's a little time jump, so we meet the characters in a little bit of a more mature place, I think." The first two episodes arrive on Prime Video Wednesday, and new episodes will air weekly after that, through Sept. 27. The series is adapted from the book series penned by Jenny Han.

Timothée Chalamet's Shirtless Pic Has a Kylie Jenner Easter Egg
Timothée Chalamet is currently filming Dune: Part Three, but took a moment to hop on Instagram and share a bunch of random photos of himself from over the years. Honestly there are a lot of gems... But we're here to talk about this photo of Timothée semi-shirtless on a yacht. Obviously there's a lot to stare at, but please note the blue pillows in the back of this photo. Because 10/10 percent convinced that these are the same pillows featured in the background of Kylie Jenner's photos from her birthday trip to the Bahamas in 2024. So yeah, this is just about as close as we've come to Timothée and Kylie going Instagram official. FYI, a source chatted to People about this trip after it went down, saying Kylie went to the Bahamas with a "small group of close friends" including Timmy for a "birthday bash." They added, "It was a nice break for her. She's incredibly happy with him. She's never been in love like this before. He's great for her. Her family loves him. He's so discreet and always has her back. He's very much a gentleman and everything that Kylie deserves. They are very serious." Anyway, look forward to seeing photos from their summer 2025 yacht trip in, IDK, 2027 I guess.
