Montreal Canadiens captain Nick Suzuki and wife Caitlin share intimate wedding photos: 'Just the two of us, forever'

Yahoo3 days ago
The couple tied the knot earlier in June during a ceremony in Turks and Caicos.
The wife of Montreal Canadiens captain Nick Suzuki is reflecting on one of the most romantic days of her life. On Sunday, the 25-year-old shared several photos and videos from her intimate beachside wedding in Turks and Caicos last month.
"Just the two of us, forever," she captioned an initial post. She paired her words with a dove emoji and her wedding date, which was on Monday, June 9, 2025.
That post first featured a photo of herself and Nick, 25, holding hands and walking away from the camera, as she looked back over her shoulder with her veil draping down to the ground. The other pictures in the carousel showed off parts of the beach, one-on-one moments with her NHLer husband as well as his-and-hers vow booklets with their rings.
Caitlin continued to shared a couple other posts from her stunning destination wedding, including a glam-shot video from a hair and makeup appointment for her cocktail bridal party. In the clip, hair artist Vanessa Wehbe showed off Caitlin's glamorous makeup look and immaculately-curled hair.
A third post showed off the couple's "night before" in Turks and Caicos, where they spent the evening on a chartered catamaran. They took an intimate photoshoot on board, where they embraced in various poses and outfits on the boat.
A couple shots featured Caitlin wearing a strapless white dress with her blonde locks tied in a ponytail, and Nick opting for a seafoam blue polo shirt and white pants. Another snapshot showed Caitlin wearing a white long-sleeve mini dress, with Nick changing into a white shirt and light khaki shorts.
In all of the posts, fans raved over the beauty of the event and how stunning the couple looked during their beachside festivities. Others shared their congratulations to the newlyweds and expressed how they're still celebrating the duo.
"Forever obsessed," wrote fellow Montreal Canadiens WAG Emma Fortin, who's married to Brendan Gallagher.
"Gorgeous. Congratulations!" added Alexa Dobson, who recently married Montreal Canadiens defenceman Noah Dobson.
"She hit us with so much in one day," joked Paola Anderson, who's married to Montreal Canadiens player Josh Anderson.
"I'm so obsessed, no words at all," someone chimed in.
"Actually never getting over these!!! Wow," someone else penned.
Caitlin also took to her Instagram Stories to re-share numerous photos and videos — some of which had black-and-white filters — that wedding guests had posted on their accounts from the reception. That included clips from their first dance and other photos the couple had taken.
Nick and Caitlin first connected through social media around 2016 or 2017. They had previously known of each other through mutual friends in London, Ont., and eventually Nick proposed in 2024 during a trip to the Dominican Republic.
This past January, Caitlin took to social media to share footage from her bachelorette bash in Aspen, Colo. "The girlies take on Aspen part 1," she captioned a post on Jan. 5. The following month, she made an appearance on the "Never Offside" podcast hosted by Julie Petry, wife of Detroit Red Wings defenceman Jeff Petry, and Cat Toffoli, wife of San Jose Sharks alternate captain Tyler Toffoli.
In an episode posted on Feb. 4, Caitlin opened up more about her relationship with Nick, her role as an NHL wife and her then-upcoming wedding "I've never dreamed of a wedding. I've dreamed of the person I'm going to marry, but I'm not a wedding person," she explained at the time.
But thinking of having all of her loved ones in one room had pushed her to excitement over the big day: "To have everyone in one space together is my dream come true. ... I know it's going to be so much fun, so I'm really looking forward to that."

Thomas Sayers Ellis, poet of ‘percussive prosody,' dies at 61

Get Starting Point A guide through the most important stories of the morning, delivered Monday through Friday. Enter Email Sign Up Mr. Ellis's high school nickname was Sticks, not just because he deployed them on the drums but also because he was skinny. In a poem with that title, he used the language of percussion to connect the violence he saw in his father, whose strength he revered as a child, with his own development as a writer: Advertisement I discovered writing, How words are parts of speech With beats and breaths of their own. Interjections like flams. Wham! Bam! He went on: My first attempts were filled with noise, Wild solos, violent uncontrollable blows. The page tightened like a drum Resisting the clockwise twisting Advertisement Of a handheld chrome key Poet and composer Janice Lowe, another Dark Room founder, said in an interview that Mr. Ellis's work was 'very much rooted in musicality, in all kinds of Black musical and linguistic traditions and in the way people play with language.' She added, 'It can fly you into the surreal, into jazz or film, or root you in something familial -- whatever he was dialoguing with -- but it never rests, never stays in the familiar. It always travels and transforms and transgresses.' Mr. Ellis was prone to linguistic pyrotechnics, both on and off the page. He was an omnivorous reader of the literary canon and an avid book collector, particularly of those writers not yet in the canon, notably people of color. He was also a film, poetry, and music buff whose interests ranged from Gertrude Stein and French New Wave films to Bootsy Collins and George Clinton. In 1986, he was living in a Victorian house in Cambridge, with poet Sharan Strange and others when he and Strange began putting together a library of works by Black authors of the diaspora. They housed it in a former darkroom on the third floor, and they called the collection 'The Dark Room,' a name they liked as a pun for a room full of 'Black books,' as Strange wrote in an essay for the literary magazine Mosaic in 2006. When James Baldwin died the next year, Mr. Ellis, Strange and their housemates made a pilgrimage to his funeral in New York City. It was a heady literary event -- Toni Morrison, William Styron, Maya Angelou, and Amiri Baraka all delivered eulogies -- and it galvanized them to create a collective that would honor and support writers of color. They already had a name, the Dark Room, and, with Lowe, they began to host readings in their living room. Advertisement They were electric events, with music and art installations, and everyone wanted in. Alice Walker called and asked to read. Derek Walcott, the Caribbean-born Nobel Prize winner, read, and so did Michael S. Harper, the poet laureate of Rhode Island. The collective grew to include, among many others, Kevin Young, now the poetry editor of The New Yorker, and Pulitzer Prize winners Tracy K. Smith and Natasha Trethewey, the country's poet laureate from 2012 to 2014. Jeff Gordinier, writing in The New York Times in 2014, called the Dark Room 'a flash of literary lightning' akin to the Beat poets and the Black Arts Movement. The collective lasted, in various forms, until 1998, and the members held reunions in subsequent years. 'You need other people who think like you, maybe, who read like you, maybe, who walk and breathe like you, maybe,' Mr. Ellis told an audience in Santa Fe in 2013 during one reunion tour. 'You think you're adding something that's needed, that you don't see. There's something about that, that never ends, no matter who you are and where you are.' In a poem that Mr. Ellis titled 'T.A.P.O.A.F.O.M. (The Awesome Power of a Fully-Operational Memory),' he wrote: Memory, Walcott says, moves backwards. If this is true, your memory is a mothership minus the disco-sadistic silver all stars need to shine. Tell the world. A positive nuisance. Da bomb. When that poem was included in 'The Best American Poetry 2001,' he had this to say about it, in an author's note: Advertisement 'In the poem, I am working on my own brand of literary activism, which I call Genuine Negro Heroism. Genuine Negro Heroism (GNH) is the opposite of HNIC (Head Negro In Charge), and incorporates pee-pure modes of black freak, black folk, and black soul behavior.' Thomas Sayers Ellis was born Oct. 5, 1963, in Washington. His mother, Jeannette (Forbes) Ellis, managed a restaurant; his father, Thomas Ellis, was a pipe mechanic. Thomas Ellis attended Dunbar High School but spent much of his time at the city's block parties and go-go clubs. His girlfriend at the time, Sandra Andrews, gave birth to his son, Finn, when he was 17 and she was 19. Mr. Ellis attended Alabama State University on a scholarship and then moved to Cambridge, where he took classes at Harvard with poet Seamus Heaney. 'In a city where everybody acts like they've read everything,' poet and publisher Askold Melnyczuk said of Cambridge, 'he actually had.' Melnyczuk was an early booster of Mr. Ellis's; he included his work in 'Take Three: Agni New Poets Series' (1996), which he edited. In addition to 'The Maverick Room,' Mr. Ellis was the author of the chapbook 'The Genuine Negro Hero' (2001), 'Skin Inc.: Identity Repair Poems' (2010), and 'Crank Shaped Notes' (2021), a collection of poems, essays and photos about the go-go music he loved. Mr. Ellis, who had taken photos since his go-go days, was a sharp street and portrait photographer. He earned a master of fine arts from Brown University in 1995. He taught at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland and Sarah Lawrence College in Bronxville, N.Y., among other institutions, and earned numerous awards and fellowships, including a Guggenheim. Advertisement In 2014, he and jazz saxophonist James Brandon Lewis formed a band they called Heroes Are Gang Leaders, after a chapter in Amiri Baraka's 1967 collection of short fiction, 'Tales.' Playing an enticing mashup of poetry, jazz, funk and more, the group swelled to 12 members and performed with such guests as Thurston Moore of Sonic Youth, singer and poet Lydia Lunch, and jazz bassist William Parker. Mr. Ellis and Lewis often squabbled during rehearsals. Mr. Ellis had a habit of recording jam sessions and then memorizing the music, and he was annoyed when they weren't later reproduced, down to the note. 'His memory was phenomenal, and he'd get so irritated,' Lewis said in an interview. 'I'd say: 'Thomas, we're improvising. We're not supposed to be memorizing.'' In addition to his son, Andrews, Mr. Ellis leaves a brother, James; four grandchildren; and one great-granddaughter. In early 2016, a year before the #MeToo movement took off, Mr. Ellis was a visiting professor at the Iowa Writers' Workshop when a women's literary group known as Vida published, online, a collection of anonymous accounts of what it said was sexual misconduct by Mr. Ellis. His classes were canceled, and Jia Tolentino, writing in Jezebel, reported on the Vida post and its ethics in an article headlined 'Is This the End of the Era of the Important, Inappropriate Literary Man?' The New Republic picked up the story, as fodder for a piece about the workshop's reputation for the bad behavior of its male professors. For his part, Mr. Ellis made no public comment about the incident. Soon after, he moved to St. Petersburg, and he was named the city's first photo laureate in 2023. Advertisement 'Language is always changing,' Mr. Ellis told The Missoula Independent, a weekly independent newspaper in Montana, in 2009. 'Language is not finished. Language is the thing that if you stay connected to it like I do, eat it enough, carry it with you enough, it will rejuvenate you. 'I don't mean 'save you' in a religious sense, but it will save you from a certain kind of dogma or mundane, boring existence.' This article originally appeared in

'Suits' and 'Yellowstone' Actor Neal McDonough Reveals Rule He Won't 'Kiss Another Woman Onscreen' in His Contracts

The actor said that he was "blackballed" and "crucified" in the industry over his ruleNEED TO KNOW Neal McDonough revealed that he has a rule about kissing women for roles, saying that he refuses to kiss anyone but his wife, Ruvé McDonough The actor alleged that his rule led to him getting sued once, as well as "blackballed" and "crucified" in the industry He revealed that the saving grace has been his wife, and that he was thrilled to get to kiss her onscreen in his movie, The Last RodeoNeal McDonough opened up about feeling "blackballed" and "crucified" in the industry over his stance on filming romantic scenes. During a Wednesday, July 30, appearance on the Nothing Left Unsaid podcast, the 59-year-old actor — who fans will recognize from the likes of his 2025 film The Last Rodeo, Suits and Yellowstone — revealed that he has a rule that he will only kiss his wife of more than 20 years, Ruvé McDonough. "I had always had in my contracts that I wouldn't kiss another woman onscreen," he said while on the podcast, clarifying that it was not his wife who proposed the rule. "It was me, really, who had a problem. I was like, 'Yeah, I don't want to put you through it. I know we're going to start having kids, and I don't want to put my kids through it.'" Instead, the actor said that he decided to pursue a career as a frequent villain so that he was able to accept roles that didn't require romantic moments. Despite his plan, Neal said that the rule ultimately "got him blacklisted" and left Hollywood confused about what to do with him. "A lot of people say, 'Well, you kill thousands of people in all of your movies, sometimes millions, and you won't kiss another woman onscreen?' I'm like, 'Yeah, but you're not really killing anybody,'" he said. "And it's kind of funny on the day when we're doing it. But intimacy is a whole different thing for me." Elsewhere in the interview, Neal recalled a time when he faced pressure on set to film a "simulated sex scene" for the pilot of a TV show. After he refused and quit the role, he was sued as the clause was not included in his contract. Despite that, he adamantly stressed that he never second-guessed his decision. Saying that "Hollywood just completely turned on me," he recalled feeling untethered and said that he "lost everything you could possibly imagine." "Not just houses and material things. But your swagger, your cool, who you are, your identity, everything. My identity was an actor and a really good one. And once you don't have that identity, you're kind of lost in a tailspin," he admitted, saying that it continued "for a couple of years." Neal explained that his self-doubt about his role in the industry led to him developing a drinking problem, which he was only able to beat when Ruvé got him to go back to church and rediscover his faith. "When I stopped drinking and everything just kind of changed. Literally, the clouds parted. I was like, 'Oh. I don't need this crutch. Oh, people are calling me. Oh, I am successful. Oh, I do like myself again. Ok, I am God's child, and I have a job to do. Stop wallowing in self-pity. Dust yourself off and go hit it hard,'" he explained. Regarding his rule, he noted that his wife was "really hot." "That's the other thing. You know, she's a good-looking woman, and everything else pales compared to my wife Ruvé. But in all seriousness, it was just something I was never comfortable doing." The rule almost led to him giving up his role in The Last Rodeo, which he wrote and produced as well as starred in, because there were two flashbacks that entailed kissing the character's deceased wife. What changed his mind was convincing Ruvé to play the role.

"She was so great in the movie, and to kiss my wife, my real-life wife, in a movie that I wrote and produced and gave glory to Him in," he reflected, saying, that he couldn't picture "anything really better than that in my life when it comes to my career because it's finally one of those things where I made it, and I did it our way." He continued, saying, "We did it. We made a beautiful film that's made money, that everyone's loving, that the reviews are crazy for. I've never been part of a film that has a 95% Rotten Tomatoes approval rating from the audience. Never. You know, so we knew we did something right." The actor also shared a lesson that he learned from the experience, saying, "I think sometimes you need to be crucified in life to realize what life is really about. It's about God. It's about what you can do to make the world a better place while you're here for that finite amount of time." Neal and Ruvé exchanged vows in December 2003, and they share five children. "Almost 20 years of marriage, & 23 years together. The best decision I ever made in my life asking Ruvé to be my life partner and soulmate," he gushed about his life partner in a 2023 post on Instagram celebrating their monumental anniversary.

Meghan Markle's former friend Jessica Mulroney splits from husband

The Duchess of Sussex's former best friend, Jessica Mulroney, has reportedly split from her husband after almost 17 years of marriage. Sources have told Page Six that the Canadian stylist, 45, is no longer wearing her wedding ring and broke the news to friends when she attended a wedding solo in Toronto last month.

Jessica shares three children with Ben – who is the son of former Canadian Prime Minister, the late Brian Mulroney and his widow, Mila. The couple have twin sons, Brian and John, 14, and daughter Ivy, 12, were part of the bridal party at Prince Harry and Meghan's wedding in Windsor in May 2018 – where Jessica also acted as the bride's maid of honour. HELLO! has reached out to Jessica Mulroney's representatives for comment. Fallout with Meghan Former actress Meghan first met stylist Jessica on the set of Suits, and the pair formed a close friendship, even going on girls' holidays together. But in 2020, the pair reportedly fell out amid a racism scandal when influencer Sasha Exeter called out Jessica for displaying "textbook white privilege" within the fashion blogging community. And when Jessica apologised, citing Meghan as one of her "closest friends", the Duchess reportedly put an end to their friendship. The stylist has not featured on Meghan's new Instagram account since the Duchess returned to the social media platform at the start of 2025 and she did not appear in the Netflix series, With Love, Meghan. Close friends Abigail Spencer, Kelly McKee Zajfen, Delfina Figueras and Daniel Martin all notably made appearances on the show. Jessica is thought to have briefly featured in the Sussexes' Netflix series, Harry & Meghan, released in 2022. Moments before Harry proposed in the garden of Nottingham Cottage, Meghan was seen video calling a friend. She was heard saying: "Oh my God Jess, it's happening. He told me not to peek."
