Empire stars Trai Byers and Grace Gealey have tied the knot.
The
32-year-old onscreen eldest son of Lucious Lyon (Terrence Howard) wed
his
31-year-old girlfriend, who plays Lucious's ex-fiancée Anika
Calhoun.
TMZ
reported that the duo exchanged 'I do's' in a private ceremony at a
mansion on Grand Cayman Island on Thursday, with a very limited guest
list which reportedly did not include any of their Empire co-stars.

The
short, five table, guest list was limited to close friends and
relatives, who dined on steak and lobster during the following
celebration.
Following the ceremony the happy couple - and guests - celebrated dancing to hip-hop, disco, and reggae.
Trai proposed to Grace on her 31st birthday this past July, with Us Weekly reporting
that he 'popped the question and she was totally surprised and elated.
She can’t stop looking at the ring! They celebrated all night.'
Prior to their engagement, rumors of a relationship between the two Empire stars had circulated for months.

Grace seemed to first confirm the engagement while appearing on an October episode of FABLife, hosted by Tyra Banks and Chrissy Teigen.
She
had been speaking about her thoughts on relationships with co-workers,
sharing that she believed it was less likely to be trouble if you
established it wasn't a fling or 'frivolous and fleeting.'
'[You have] to have the maturity to say that if this doesn't work out, you're not going to you know, throw staplers,' she said.
