Grey’s Anatomy star, Ellen Pompeo has married her long-time partner Chris Ivery in a low key ceremony in Manhattan on Friday (November 9), with the Mayor of New York acting as witness for the nuptials.
Pompeo and Ivery, a record producer, met in a grocery store in Los Angeles in 2003, and became engaged in November 2006 when he proposed on her 37th birthday.
The Boston Globe reports that the couple were married in a ceremony at City Hall in lower Manhattan, with New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg acting as a witness, as Ivery and the Mayor share mutual friends.
Pompeo’s father Joseph confirmed the marriage on Wednesday, telling People.com that, "I’m very happy for her. She just didn’t want a big thing."
Pompeo also celebrated her 38th birthday on Saturday, and has returned to work on her hit medical drama.
