While Aduba only shared this news recently, a source confirmed toPeoplethat she and Sweeting said their 'I do's' in a private New York ceremony back in 2020, which means they kept their nuptials under wraps for quite some time. The insider said, "They are celebrating their one-year anniversary this year."
The announcement comes shortly after Aduba was announced as an Emmy nominee for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series for HBO'sIn Treatment. This could very well make her a four-time Emmy winner, as she already received two Emmys for her role inOrange Is the New Blackand one for美国太太.
After snagging her third Emmy, she dedicated her victory to Shirley Chisholm, the real-life politician she portrayed on美国太太. She said, "Thank you to Shirley Chisholm for her championship work for all people who have been forgotten and marginalized, who she represented."
Fingers crossed we'll get to see her make another acceptance speech at this year's ceremony.
