Following nearly two years as a couple, on Saturday, Riverdale star Vanessa Morgan married longtime boyfriend, MLB player Michael Kopech, according to People. The two wed in a private ceremony at the Historic Walton House in Homestead, Florida, and kept the event small and intimate with approximately 40 family members and friends in attendance.

Kopech posted a video about the engagement on Instagram, writing, "So I’ll start with the obvious: I love you. I love you intensely, passionately, & also at times, recklessly."

Throughout their relationship, Morgan has shared occasional relationship updates on social media. Following the proposal, the Riverdale star posted a slideshow of photos from their getaway on Instagram, writing, "Happy 4th Everyone!" In December, Morgan shared a romantic lakeside photo shoot holding her fiancé's hand on Instagram, captioning it, "We just cheesin' 24/7 these days." along with another photo kissing Kopech, writing, "Can’t wait to be Mrs. Kopech in 5 weeks!"

On Saturday, Morgan posted a photo of sneakers labeled "Bride" on her Instagram Story, showing how excited the star was for the big day. It's not yet clear if she'll share more photos from the ceremony on social media, but given how many relationship moments the couple have posted for the past, it seems likely fans can look forward to further updates.
