‘Yellowstone' star Josh Lucas ties the knot with meteorologist Brianna Ruffalo inside the Vatican
The 'Yellowstone' star, 54, and Los Angeles meteorologist, 34, tied the knot inside Vatican City.
'Mr. and Mrs. Incredibly blessed to receive this sacrament together inside the heart of the Catholic Church and holy city,' Ruffalo wrote on Instagram on Friday.
The weather woman's sweet words accompanied black and white shots of her and her groom kissing, walking out of the chapel, and posing in front of the beautiful building.
Lucas replied in the comments section, stating, 'I love you! Easily one of the greatest days of my life. I am so so grateful.'
The pair exchanged vows in a private ceremony in Italy. Lucas donned a classic black tuxedo, while Ruffalo opted for a lace, strapless gown.
In a second post, the blushing bride shared a close-up of herself and her partner on their special day.
'We are grateful to the many people who helped us get to this moment in the Catholic Church,' Ruffalo penned. 'I am so thankful for Father Winters at the parish I grew up in, and Sister Angelica at the archdiocese of Los Angeles- as well as several others within the archdiocese.'
She added, 'We also absolutely couldn't have done this without our stellar wedding planning team who coordinated with the Vatican. Thank you for making our wedding day so beautiful and easy Thank you P & J team.'
Lucas took to his own Instagram to gush over his nuptials.
The 'Sweet Home Alabama' vet gave followers a glimpse into the behind-the-scenes of their wedding with adorable Instagram pics.
In one shot, Lucas is casually leaning his hand against the wall as he smiles at Ruffalo, who is holding a white laced umbrella over her head.
A second snap, in black and white, shows the actor fully leaning up against the building as the media personality struts by.
The 'Palm Royale' star and news anchor began dating in 2022, before getting engaged in June 2024.
Lucas popped the question while on a romantic getaway in Italy last summer.
'Almost 2 years ago this fall, and with no expectations, Josh walked into my life,' Ruffalo wrote on Instagram at the time, 'and we knew almost immediately we had each found our person in a way we've never experienced—on every level.'
'This was the easiest and best question I've ever answered,' she continued. 'So, here's to forever with my love, my best friend. I can't wait to keep living this life with you.'
Lucas echoed his partner's sentiments, writing in his own post, 'For the last 2 years in Every Way and Every Day this beautiful soul has made me and my life better, deeper, and more whole.'
'I am so grateful and thrilled she said 'Yes.' I WAY love you, Brianna. Thank you to our families and all the people and places that made this come true. I am absolutely aware I got crazy lucky.'
Lucas was previously married to Jessica Clencin Henriquez from 2012 to 2014. The exes share son Noah, 13.
In 2022, the actor spoke about having his mini-me on set in Montana while filming the western 'Yellowstone.'
'To bring him on set and have him there, we had a great day, a rather, I must say, humbling day for me,' Lucas told Entertainment Tonight. 'It was the scene early in this season where I knock a guy out.'
On the series, which ran for five seasons from 2018 to 2024, the 'Firm' star played the younger version of Kevin Costner's John Dutton.
'My son was sitting at the monitor,' Lucas continued 'I walked up to the guy to punch him and, frankly, I tripped. My hat fell off and I dropped my gun. My son screamed from the monitor. He was like, 'Dad, you're a fool!''
Although Lucas has largely kept his son out of the spotlight, he did share in 2019 that Noah's first kiss was with a fellow A-lister's daughter.
Noah shared a smooch with Luna, Uma Thurman's daughter, while their parents were worked together in the 2017 Broadway show, 'The Parisian Woman.'
'Backstage, [Noah and Luna] had their little playroom, and one day we opened the playroom and they both like popped up from behind the couch, both of them. And they were both obviously so nervous,' Lucas explained while on 'The Late Late Show with James Corden.' 'Luna, Uma's daughter, walked out, and I took Noah and was like, 'What's going on?''
'He was like, 'I think, I guess I just had my first kiss,'' the actor added. 'Think about that — your first kiss is backstage behind a couch in a Broadway theater.'

Finished 'Yellowstone' And '1923'? Here Are 7 Western TV Series To Watch Next
Yellowstone and its spin-offs have drawn an entirely new generation of TV viewers into the Western saddle — and believe us, this golden age of prestige Westerns is not only keeping the genre alive but also shaking it up. From rugged wagon trails to cunning law enforcement, these shows dive straight into the elements Yellowstone fans cherish most: breathtaking landscapes, complex family legacies, and heart-wrenching love stories. Whether you crave sweeping vistas or intense family drama, these series will satisfy your appetite for the world Taylor Sheridan has created. What's it about? Meet the Duttons before Montana even knew their name. 1883 is Yellowstone's prequel: a wagon trail epic of hope, heartbreak, and brutal new beginnings. Sam Elliott, Tim McGraw, and Faith Hill headline the saga that's thick with grit, dysentery, and the ultimate question — how much will you sacrifice for your family's future? Where can I watch 1883? Paramount+. What's it about? Picture a mining town run almost entirely by women (yes, really.) When outlaw Roy Goode stumbles into La Belle, the town's fierce heroines (played by Michelle Dockery and Merritt Wever) must defend their independence against bandits and old ghosts. Godless is the kind of Western series that women deserve. Where can I watch Godless? Netflix. What's it about? Swap the grandeur of Montana for Wyoming's quietly dangerous beauty, and sheriffs for, well, more sheriffs. Walt Longmire lives his life keeping the peace in Absaroka County, and solving crimes that blur the lines between tradition and justice. It's a modern cowboy drama with slow-burn charm and high-stakes drama. A must-see. Where can I watch Longmire? Netflix. What's it about? Join Raylan Givens — a trigger-happy U.S. Marshal — as he returns home to Kentucky, where family feuds and backwoods justice reign supreme. Expect shootouts, and a modern spin on the lone lawman archetype. Where can I watch Justified? ITVX, Hulu. What's it about? Imagine Yellowstone had a baby with Twin Peaks, and you'll just about get Outer Range, which tells the story of Wyoming rancher Royal Abbott (Josh Brolin) who discovers a mysterious void on his land, igniting a supernatural mystery with roots in family, greed, and existential dread. Where can I watch Outer Range? Prime Video. What's it about? Once you've finished Yellowstone, teleport to Prohibition-era Atlantic City via Boardwalk Empire. Nucky Thompson's reign is as cutthroat as any Dutton drama, weaving corruption and survival across lavish parties and deadly rivalries. Where can I watch Boardwalk Empire? NOW TV. What is The Abandons about? Set in the dust-choked hills of 1850s Oregon, The Abandons is the latest offering from Sons of Anarchy creator Kurt Sutter. It's got Gillian Anderson running wild in the wild, wild west, survivors on the edge, and enough family drama to keep us all glued to our screens. Per the official Netflix logline, the series '...tells the story of a group of diverse renegade families living on the fringes of society in 1850s Washington State. These lost souls band together to fight corrupt forces and do anything they can to save their land.' Where can I watch The Abandons? Filming started on the hotly-anticipated series in May 2024, so hopes are high that it will be available to stream soon on Netflix.

Banksy work The Migrant Child removed from Venetian palazzo for restoration
Art restorers have removed a deteriorating piece of graffiti by the street artist Banksy titled The Migrant Child from the side of a building overlooking a Venetian canal to preserve the work for future public display, officials said. The removal from the wall of Palazzo San Pantalon was carried out in consultation with people close to the secretive British street artist, according to officials at the Venice-based bank Banca Ifis's art programme that promotes art and culture. The artwork depicting a shipwrecked child holding a pink smoke bomb and wearing a lifejacket appeared along Rio di San Pantalon in Venice in May 2019, and was acknowledged by Banksy. Marked on online maps, it has become a tourist destination. But six years of neglect had led to the deterioration of about a third of the work, the bank said. The restoration is being overseen by Federico Borgogni, who previously removed dust and cleaned the surface before detaching a section of the palazzo's facade overnight on Wednesday, Banca Ifis said. The bank is financing the project, but did not release the cost of the operation. The bank intends to display the work to the public as part of free cultural events organised by Ifis art once restoration is completed. No time frame was given.
