Photos of their seaside wedding went viral in January 2024, confirming the news. Since then, the couple has kept a low profile, with one notable exception: attending the 2023 US State Dinner for Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

The couple was expecting their first child in March, 2025. However, their little one had other plans and arrived earlier than expected.
