The Precious actor just revealed that she got married — and has been keeping it a secret for over a year!

Gabourey says she and her fiancé Brandon Frankel actually tied the knot back in early 2021.

During an appearance on Live with Kelly and Ryan, Gabourey explained how it all went down.

After meeting on a dating app, the couple got engaged in November 2020 — and then said "I do" just four months later.

"The thing about weddings is I don't like them. I don't like them," Gabourey shared. "Here's an example of how much I don't like them: I'm actually married. We got married over a year ago."

She later added, "We got married at the kitchen table. It was just us!"

And although Gabourey still doesn't like weddings, she says there will eventually be a celebration for the pair.

On Instagram, Brandon posted a sweet message for Gabourey, relieved to finally be able to share the news with the world.

"So thankful to have found my forever person, my partner-in-crime, and the love of my life. Every day is the best day with you...Love you forever," he wrote.

Congratulations to Gabourey and Brandon!
