For more than five decades, Emmy-nominated actress, writer, producer, and host Yvette Nicole Brown built a life she loved—one filled with career triumphs, deep friendships, and joy. But as fate would have it, the love of her life was waiting to reappear at the right time in the form of an old friend: Actor Anthony “Tony” Davis.
On Saturday, December 14, 2024, surrounded by their closest friends, family, and industry colleagues, Yvette and Tony wed in an intimate and elegant celebration at The Maybourne Beverly Hills in Los Angeles. Their stunning wedding dominated news feeds and was even crowned ‘Wedding of the Year’ by Entertainment Tonight.
But it wasn’t just the exquisite decor by renowned planner William P. Miller that was causing all the buzz. The couple’s heartwarming love story–spanning decades, loss, and an unexpected reunion–is what truly captured everyone’s hearts and gave hope to other singles seeking love later in life.
Despite societal pressures to be booed up, married, and have kids—ideally well before 40—Yvette never felt rushed to settle down. Marriage was not something she ever needed to be happy. Her life was pretty fabulous already.
“The 51 years before [Tony] was back in my life were very full, wonderful, rich years,” Yvette revealed. “I was not lacking because I did not have a husband. Now that I do, my life is richer—but it was already rich. It’s better—but it was already good.”
What mattered most to Yvette was finding a partner whose heart was as kind as his love was steady. “I’ve often said to women that when you make your list of what you hope to find in a mate, a lot of people focus on things like, ‘He needs to be six feet tall, or he needs to look like Idris Elba.’ I always hoped that whoever I ended up with would be kind because I felt like that’s more important than his height, how much money he has, or what he weighs. And that’s exactly what Tony has brought into my life—kindness and peace.”
It’s the small, thoughtful gestures that mean the most to Yvette, like how Tony makes her tea every morning, even though she used to be a coffee drinker. “I wasn’t even a tea drinker before, but now I am. And it’s delicious, and I look forward to it every day,” Yvette shared. He also leaves her love notes and, in a touching tribute to her late mother, surprised her with a Valentine’s Day card from her mom—a tradition she hadn’t experienced in years. “He didn’t even know my mom used to do that. We’re a card family, and Tony instinctively got me a card from my mother. You can’t quantify that kind of love.”
The couple, who first met in their twenties in an acting class at church, took over two decades to finally strike up a romance.
When they first met, Tony was married and totally off-limits. “He was my cute, talented, kind friend,” Yvette recalled. “Then he and his family moved back to New York and I lost touch with him for 26 years.”
Major life changes including Tony’s divorce and the passing of both of their mothers would ultimately bring them back together in 2021. “Tony reached out to me on Instagram and we rekindled our friendship that way,” she shared. “But it was more of a slow burn because I couldn’t believe that I had my friend back first of all, and then to realize I was catching feelings for him as well was really, really surprising and also exciting and wonderful.”
Over time, Tony’s feelings deepened. He knew Yvette was “the one” by the tranquility he felt whenever they were together. “It’s very easy to be with you,” he gushed to Yvette. “It’s easy to be in your presence, it’s easy to spend time, it’s easy to goof off and do nothing and watch TV. You bring such peace and joy to me that it feels like a hand in a glove. It just fits, it just works, and it’s something that I look forward to every day, every morning, every afternoon, and every evening.”
Knowing he’d found his person, Tony wanted to plan a unique and meaningful proposal.
He devised a clever lottery scratch-off ruse and enlisted Yvette’s friends to help orchestrate the perfect surprise during a December 2023 trip to Cleveland celebrating Yvette’s high school auditorium being named after her.
“One of my dear friends, Nikki, was having a celebration party for that honor at her house that night,” Yvette shared. “During that party, me and Tony were bringing scratch-offs to thank the hosts for having us over. So, I knew we had scratchers for them, I just didn’t know that Tony had a scratcher for me.”
While she had a feeling a proposal was coming, she didn’t expect it that day. But when Tony popped the question, the moment was perfect. Even more special was that her Cleveland friends—who had missed so many milestones in her life—were able to witness it.
As for the ring, Tony selected an elegant oval diamond. “The ring that he chose is just really wonderful and beautiful,” Yvette shared. “I’ll love it forever.”
After their engagement, the couple began planning a wedding that reflected their deep bond, joy, and faith. The result? A celebration filled with meaningful moments, personal touches, and a vibe that felt just right.
Now, after finding a love that feels like home, Yvette and Tony are taking us back to their wedding day—sharing the inspiration behind their elegant affair, the most emotional moments, and the little details that made it uniquely them.

Yvette, Tony—congratulations! Let’s start from the beginning. What was your vision for your wedding day? You’ve mentioned that you initially didn’t want a big wedding, but it grew to include so many loved ones. How did you balance intimacy with celebration?
Yvette: The wedding ended up being way larger than I ever thought. Part of that is my fault because when I made the Save the Date list, I did not take into account the plus ones, so I just blew that. By the time we sent out our first round of Save the Dates, we were going to do two or three rounds of them. All of our guest lists got eaten up by that first group of Save the Dates because a lot of them were married, so it already just had ballooned to be bigger than I ever anticipated.
I balanced it because everybody that was able to come, we truly know well and we truly love well. So it was automatically going to be intimate because they were people that we care about, and it ended up being really beautiful. There are some people that couldn’t make it, and there are some people that we couldn’t invite, and I will miss the idea of them being there forever. But I think the group that we had was the perfect group for our day.
Were there any unexpected moments during the wedding-planning process?
Tony: I would say the most unexpected moment I think was your dad coming to the wedding.
Yvette: My dad has dementia and recently had a fall and broke his hip and has not been able to walk since then. The dementia kind of tricked him into thinking that he couldn’t walk anymore. I haven’t been able to have him in the house as his caregiver for about six months now. He’s at a Board and Care and has great caregivers there, but because of his condition, I did not think he’d be able to attend the wedding.
As we planned, I did not create space in my mind that it was even possible that my dad could be there. Tony, on the other hand, realized that our wedding would not be the same if my dad wasn’t there. Behind the scenes without me knowing, he spoke to the woman who was helping us at the hotel, spoke to my dad’s caregivers, and paid for extra insurance and a car service and medical transport and all of the things to make sure my dad could be there on our day. That is the most unexpected thing that I could imagine.
Insofar as wedding planning itself, I had no idea how expensive flowers are. Flowers are very expensive. Flowers and wine or alcohol at a wedding are the big-ticket items. That part shocked me.
What did you both wear on your wedding day? Tell us about your dress, tux, wedding theme, and color palette.
Yvette: I had this beautiful dress by Ines Di Santo that I got from Lovella Bridal.
Tony: Gorgeous dress, just gorgeous.
Yvette: Shout out to Nayri Kalayjian at Lovella and Roni Burks, who’s the one that introduced me to Lovella. William P. Miller, our wedding planner, also had a relationship with Lovella. But we tried on dresses, and then after we tried on the dresses that Nayri had selected for me to try on, my hand just went across a row of dresses and stopped on this design that I thought was really beautiful. And I said, “Well, what about this one?” And the one I put my hand on happened to be an Ines Di Santo dress.
Nayri was kind enough to reach out to Ines to see if she would be willing to craft that dress to what I needed. And Ines, to my shock and surprise, said yes. So that beautiful gown that I wore with the two butterfly appliques in honor of our mothers was designed by Ines Di Santo.
I’m grateful to everyone who made that possible. I even went to meet Ines at Bridal Fashion Week in New York. Our wedding planner set that up, and so I went and met with her and got to really connect with her and her daughter, Veronica. It’s just been a lovely partnership and the dress she created was amazing.
And then Tony, his suit was by Vinny’s Custom Clothes. Vinny created an amazing velvet-like caramel brown tuxedo jacket and caramel brown pants and vest. Everything was bespoke besides a shirt that had his name embroidered on it.
Tony: Most compliments I ever got in my life wearing that suit.
Yvette: You looked good in that suit, baby. Vinny did a great job. So that’s where we got our clothing for the day. For our wedding style, we chose the colors pink, dusty rose, and all shades of brown for our wedding colors. We just wanted something beautiful classic, and accessible, and I think we achieved that.
Tony: We definitely did. And I also believe that the wedding was for us too, but the wedding, what we shared, the values, the counseling, the talking about this ‘delay is not denial’ and how we sowed into other people’s relationships, whether they’re married, single or what have you. There was a part of the wedding that spoke to every facet of a relationship. I say we provided a venue for people to talk openly about what’s going on in their lives. About wanting more.
Yvette: Believing for more.
Tony: And not subscribing to society’s standards of what a woman should be, what a man should be, how much money he’s supposed to have, and whether she should be married with children. All those rules were just thrown out the window, and we learned to adjust to each other’s individual characteristics and the blessings that everyone has in their life.
Yvette: And it’s a testament also to our officiant Love McPherson, who’s also my personal therapist. I met her when I was grieving my mother’s passing, and that’s how she came into my life. But she was our officiant, and when I was going back and forth about wanting a wedding or not, because Tony had always said, “Whatever you want Yvette. You want to get married under a tree, on a beach, justice of the peace in the backyard, I’ll marry you anywhere.” And I just couldn’t wrap my mind around having an actual wedding because I just didn’t want the attention, and I don’t know, everything about it I just felt like I shouldn’t do it.
And McPherson said to me and Tony, “What if you make your wedding a gift and an offering to other people? Instead of it being about you, how about if you share your wedding day as a testament and a testimony to how good God is?”
Again, like Tony said, “Delay is not denial.”
And make sure you share everything about the day so that people can be encouraged and keep believing that love is possible for them.” Once that shifted and clicked in my mind, then I was full speed ahead with the whole idea of everything involving a wedding because it wasn’t just about me or just about Tony, it was about everyone that believes in love and still dreams of finding it themselves.
Yvette, as a writer and producer, were there any creative touches you added to your wedding to make it uniquely you?
Yvette: I just hoped that everything about the wedding was accessible, that people felt comfortable, loved, and celebrated. The other thing that was important to me is my rock scripture Jeremiah 29:11. I wanted to make sure that that was prominently featured somewhere. It ended up on the runner that we walked down, and we wanted that to be a message to everyone that came that God has a plan for you, a plan to prosper you and give you an expected end. No matter what society or the world says, God has a plan. I’m so glad that that was a part of the wedding.
Tony: Another beautiful thing about the wedding too was that there were so many different people from so many different facets of life, whether on screen, behind the screen, or just controlling the screen. Everyone was able to talk and laugh and you would’ve thought everyone knew each other for years.
Yvette: It was a party that felt like a family reunion.
We had this great moment where Deniece Williams, who’s a new friend of mine — I sang “Let’s Hear It for The Boy” on Masked Singer, and that’s how she and I met. She actually reached out to me via DM to say that I did a good job with her song, which to hear from Deniece Williams, who I’ve loved my whole life, is just crazy. And so a friendship formed with her and her son, and we invited them to the wedding. At the reception, because we had a lot of amazing singers as guests at the wedding, I just joked and said, “If anybody has a song in their heart, feel free to join us.” Our DJ started to play a Deniece Williams song, and to our surprise, Deniece Williams came up and sang acapella along with her song. She just blessed the people.
Tony: And tore it up. Oh my Lord, she hasn’t missed anything.
Yvette: No, her voice is even better now than when we were kids. And so I really was hoping that the wedding would be exactly that: spontaneous and fun and wonderful in ways that we couldn’t even imagine.
Another thing that I did add, there’s a scripture in the Bible that talks about “write the vision and make it plain,” and instead of doing a bouquet toss, I wanted to do something where women and men could not fall into the trap of believing that there’s scarcity in love.
Throwing one bouquet and everybody fighting for it always grieved my spirit.
Instead, I took writing pens and wrapped them up to look like flowers, and I held those pens as a bouquet. And I spoke to the guests about believing in love and writing the vision of what you want for your life.
If it’s love or if it’s a career blessing, whatever you want, just use this pen to write it down and let the look of this flower be a reminder that you don’t need to catch a bouquet for your dreams to come true, there’s enough flowers for each of us to go around.
To my surprise, I made 50 of those pens, and I came home with 3. So that means 47 of those pens were requested and given out at our wedding. I truly believe those 47 people are somewhere writing down what they want for themselves and believing that delay is not denial.
Tony, what was your favorite part of the wedding planning process?
Tony: Oh, tasting the food.
Yvette: I knew you would say that.
Tony: Seeing it all come together was a blessing in itself. Because you can have your vision of how it’s going to happen, but when you actually see it, the flowers, the tables, the people, the music, the lighting, the moments… I think that was probably the best part. Seeing it all come together.
What were you most looking forward to about marrying Yvette and sharing your life together?
Tony: Honestly, I want to see us grow old together. I love seeing elderly couples, and they’re in their nineties, and they’re holding each other’s hands. They’re walking slowly and she’s pulling him up, saying “Come on, catch up.” Or vice versa. Just seeing the interactions, still going out to dinner, still holding the door open, pulling out the seat. And seeing that in your seasoned time in life, to show that you have that, I think that’s incredible. I’m most looking forward to that.
Yvette: You know, that sounds really awesome. The idea of sitting on a porch swing sipping lemonade with you at 90 seems pretty awesome. I’ve already seen a lot of what I didn’t even know to look forward to. I remember I had a doctor’s appointment, it was just a follow-up appointment, and I was getting up to go to the appointment, and by the time I got to the car, Tony had the gates open and was in the driver’s seat. I said, “What are you doing?” He said, “We’re going to your appointment.”
Before Tony, I never had anybody besides my mother and my brother who would show up for me in that way. The idea that I had someone that would remember that I had a doctor’s appointment, get up and get ready for it, and just want to go with me. This wasn’t even like a serious appointment… It wasn’t like I was going to get some bad news or was waiting for a result. It was literally a routine doctor’s appointment, and he literally wanted to go with me. That’s just amazing, and I look forward to more opportunities to show him how much I care for him and be the great recipient of the care he shows me.
How did your families and communities shape your vision for the big day?
Yvette: We each have a lot of friends who are married, so we’ve had a lot of them say, “Well, just on this day, make sure you do this.” A lot of my friends who were brides are like, “Make sure you eat something. Realize that the day’s going to go by really fast. Make sure you and Tony have private time right after you get married, make sure there’s a couple of moments you guys can step aside and just breathe before you launch into pictures and everything.” It was more like information about how to prep for the day, and that shaped it for me.
Tony: I think there were little bits and pieces from everybody that they hoped to see, or wanted to see, or their happiness for the wedding. It’s almost like you shared every moment with everybody at the same time. But like you said, you pick what works for you. You say yes to everybody, and you nod and agree, but whatever happens at the wedding is going to happen. What makes it special is honestly just being there with the one you love, being surrounded by those who love you, and just embarking on what’s new and what’s to come and everybody’s on one accord.
Yvette: What was funny for me was that Tony was very protective of me before the wedding.
I don’t know if somebody sent a threat or something. I don’t know what happened, but he was very concerned about my safety. So much so that he hired a young man named Ty who does security to be my personal security for the day.
Never in my life, besides Tony and my brother, have I had somebody protecting me at the level Ty was protecting me. Tony also made sure that no one came into the bridal suite unless I had asked for them to come. He wanted to make sure that I was peaceful and that nothing would disrupt my peace, and I thought that was really sweet that he was that concerned about me.
I’m kind of an open book, like anybody who wanted to come in could come in. But he was just concerned that maybe somebody would get in that didn’t have our best interests at heart. It was really nice to know that he was protecting me. Even though he couldn’t be with me because of superstition, he made sure that I had someone with me who would take care of me the way that he would.
Tony: There are enough energies that come with a wedding, so I just wanted you as calm and as peaceful as possible.
What were the wedding traditions, cultural elements, or meaningful moments you incorporated to honor your families and shared journey?
Yvette: We had chairs saved for each of our mothers and our wedding planner William had these placards made for our moms. We also put a rose on each of our mom’s chairs.
Then we also had a sand ceremony where my pink sand mixed with his brown sand, representing the Davis and the Brown families coming together, and our brothers brought the sand to us to honor our family lines.
Our officiant, Love McPherson, also had this great idea to incorporate an African ritual of the Four Elements into our ceremony. The ceremony included a sour lemon for unhappy times; bitter vinegar for unforgiveness, resentment, and unresolved pain; hot cayenne for fire and passion; and finally, sweet honey for good times and experiencing love.
Each of those flavors represented things that happen in a marriage, and she had us taste them to realize. She also had a statement about what each of these different elements brings to a marriage and how you have to fight through some of them and savor others. That was really wonderful.
As two actors, was there any dramatic flair or Hollywood-inspired moments during the ceremony or reception?
Yvette: I think the way we performed “I Got Nothing But Love For You,” the song we came out to during the reception, was a nod to our comedic gifts. We never rehearsed it.
Tony: Did not rehearse one time.
Yvette: We literally just came out and danced and sang to each other and acted a fool. So that was a lot of fun.
Tony: Didn’t know we were going to do it until it happened.
Yvette: Nope, we didn’t even plan it. And the other thing we did was, and I can’t remember whose idea this was, but instead of them clinking a glass for us to kiss, the tables had to sing a song for us.
Tony: Right.
Yvette: And the song would make us perform or kiss. At one of the tables, one of my sister’s friends did “If It Isn’t Love” by New Edition. They sang that for us and then we kissed.
Who was most likely to tear up during the vows?
Yvette: I was telling Tony that I was waiting to see if he would cry when I came down the aisle. He did not cry when I came down the aisle, but he did cry when he saw how emotional I was that he brought my father down the aisle to me. So that was Tony. I definitely wasn’t going to cry because Beth had done such a great job with my makeup that I didn’t want to lose a lash. Then Daddy comes down the aisle and I go right into the ugly cry.
Who was the life of the party during your reception?
Yvette: Absolutely me, because I love people. And don’t give me a mic. You give me a mic, it’s over.
Tony: Yeah, it’s over when you’ve got the mic.
Yvette: Yeah. We had my cousins Bridget Calhoun and Kim Whitley hosting our reception, and at one point Kim had to say, “If you don’t put that mic down,” because I kept taking the mic from them to talk to people because I just love talking to people.
What’s one wedding detail or element you were most excited to see come to life?
Yvette: I was excited about the Baby Grand piano.
Dr. Richard Sheckman is the husband of my friend Robin Bronch, and he’s a great pianist and he offered his services to play at our wedding. We got the Baby Grand for him and also for El DeBarge who was supposed to sing at our wedding but then had a family emergency. At the last minute, Leslie Odom Jr., a dear friend of ours who was attending, met up with Dr. Sheckman and they rehearsed one time and Leslie performed the most beautiful rendition of “First Time Ever I Saw Your Face” that I’ve ever heard. That was an element that came to life because of that Baby Grand that we could have never imagined.
Tony: I think for me the music was absolutely something to pay attention to. But in my head, I was so concerned about how everything was going to play out with Pops that that consumed everything.
I was trying to hide it, and then everyone wants to talk to you and I’m trying to make a secret phone call. I think my main focus was to make sure that-
Yvette: So you were more focused on that moment at the wedding?
Tony: Yeah, that was big to me. Because I wanted to make sure it panned out and that it worked out well. And it did.
Yvette: And it did. It did.
Tony: It turned out beautiful. Better than expected.
Yvette: I think the speeches from our brothers and our dear friends were wonderful. I heard that the cocktail hour was lit. We missed that because we were taking pictures, but I heard it was lit. Our amazing cake was just awesome. It’s just so many different things that were really wonderful, it’s hard to pick.
What does love mean to each of you, and how do you see it reflected in your relationship?
Tony: I think love is that D, all the above. It’s patience, it’s kindness, it’s keeping a record of wrongdoings, and you can forgive the person no matter how many times they lose the remote control.
Yvette: Wow.
Tony: No matter what.
Yvette: Shots fired.
Tony: I think our example is the best part of love that I took for granted because I look at our relationship as this is just normal, this is how we’re supposed to have it. But there are some people in relationships it doesn’t exist as easily as it does with us.
Our communication is great, so I think that’s an expression of love. Our joking is an expression of love. Even our quietness. Even allowing each other to have moments, whether you’re doing Lego or writing something or vice versa, or just a moment to watch the game or just a moment to watch something you wanted to watch on TV. Respecting each other’s privacy and giving each other enough room to exist, and then still be together as if nothing has changed in the whole wide world.
Yvette: Love to me means having someone in the boat rowing in the same direction.
And so if you need to take a break, they’ll pick up the slack and keep rowing for you and vice versa. It’s having a witness to your life, which is something I never had. I never had someone like that… I’ve been with Tony now it’s been two years I think. We can think back like, “Remember when we went here?” We have memories of trips, we have memories of parties, we’ve gone to events, we have mutual friends. It’s nice to have someone that I can go, “Remember that time?” and there’s someone that goes, “Yeah, I remember that.” That’s really nice.
Tony: And laughter.
Yvette: And caring, too. And that’s reflected in, again, how Tony brings me coffee… I mean tea in the mornings. It’s coffee some days, but it’s usually tea. How Tony makes me breakfast and dinner, and he’ll rub my back before I even know… He can tell that my shoulders are up by my ears because I’m stressing about something and he’ll just come instinctively and rub my shoulders. His love is action, which is really, really beautiful.
Yvette, what dating advice would you give to single women over 50?
Yvette: To not settle. To not treat marriage and relationships like musical chairs. There are more than enough chairs to go around, and the music is not ending.
If you’re still on this side of heaven, there’s still time. So do not just grab somebody because everybody tells you it’s time. You will know when you know. And that knowing is peace and quiet and just an understanding. And I would tell them if you have a group chat where you ask questions about the guy you’re dating, it’s probably not him. Because when it’s the guy that is coming for you, you don’t have any questions because he’s very clear.
That’s the one difference between Tony and every other guy I ever liked. I was always asking my friends, “Well, what does this mean? And he sent me this.” I didn’t have any questions about Tony. My friends didn’t have to help me figure this out, at all. This all made sense from day one, and it’s just been a blessing.
Tony: Also, I want to say a date is not just the dinner you’re going to sit down at the table with, or sharing a movie, or a walk in the park. The date is everything that exists between you two at the time.
It’s phone calls, it’s conversations, it’s the little things that go on during the day. Say you didn’t have such a great day, how’s the person act then? You’re always dating, you’re always evaluating and getting information.
Yvette: And keep doing that. While you’re dating, you have one great date and he makes you feel wonderful or she makes you feel wonderful, that ain’t it.
Tony: Right.
Yvette: Keep watching to see what they’re like. Someone said you shouldn’t get married until you’ve seen someone in every season. And not just summer, spring, fall, and winter, but how are they when they’re happy? How are they when they’re sad? How are they when they’re disappointed and when they’re sick? These are things you need to know to see if this person is someone that you can do life with.
What excites you most about building a future together as husband and wife?
Yvette: For me, it’s just getting to share my life with my best friend. I’ve been blessed in my life to have wonderful friends throughout, but there’s something about marrying friendship and love that is just divine, and getting to do life with someone who makes me laugh this much is such a joy.
Tony: It’s special. It’s more than special, it’s ordained. Even when we don’t have the best conversation, let’s say someone did something they shouldn’t have done or whatever, we can still go at it and be upset, but we have never ever walked away angry.
Yvette: Or been disrespectful.
Tony: Never have done anything to be disrespectful, at least not on purpose. I have a mean face sometimes.
Yvette: Well, we both have mean… I mean every Black person’s got a face. But I’ve never felt like I’ve been… I hope that you’ve never felt that you’ve been emasculated.
Tony: No.
Yvette: We respect and honor each other always. And I think that’s the friendship angle of it.
Tony: Right.
Yvette: I don’t want to hurt my friend. So even if I were to get mad at my husband or be displeased with my husband because of something stupid, that’s not going to make me hurt my friend.
Tony: Right.
Yvette: So I’m very mindful of honoring him as the two things that he is for me: my husband, and my friend.
Tony: You’re more than just my wife, you’re more than just my friend, you’re more than my comrade, you’re more than my buddy. You are a piece of every facet of life that exists. And that has to be respected. And the moment you don’t respect that, I think that’s where things start going downhill.
Yvette, you’ve played so many memorable characters. If you could take advice from one of them on married life, who would it be from and why?
Yvette: Oof. For married life, I probably would have to go with Angela from Act Your Age, because I think out of all my characters, she’s the only one that’s married and/or happily married.
Her husband in the show had passed away, but she had a great run with Davis. So I would take advice from Angela Martin from Act Your Age. I surely wouldn’t take any from Helen on Drake & Josh. And Shirley from Community, she’s got a violent streak, so she’s not the one I would listen to either.
Tony, if you were to describe your relationship with Yvette in one word, what would it be?
Tony: Perfection.
Yvette: Oh, you saying I’m perfect?
Tony: Perfection.
Yvette: I know.
Tony: Because if you can have one person and you can get everything that you need from them in terms of friendship, in terms of hanging out, in terms of being quirky… I mean there are times when we’ll start dancing and do the foot dance.
Yvette: Yeah, we will dance anywhere.
Tony: All kinds of craziness or whatever. No matter what part of my character exists, there’s always room for you to experience it with me, share it with me, laugh with me, and just have that wonderful thing that it is. Whether it’s watching TV, whether it’s reading a book, whether it’s a love moment, whether it’s a crazy moment of laughter. No matter what.
Yvette: We are comfortable wherever we are. And at this point, I feel like we’ve been through every up and down that can come, and we are literally solid as a rock. Even during the tough times that life throws your way, there’s nobody else I’d want to go through any of that with other than Tony. He’s literally the best God could have made for me. That’s how I feel. I can’t speak for myself with anybody else, but this one? Perfect for me, and I’m so happy he’s in my life.
Tony: She completes my incomplete circles.
