When the kids are asleep, intentional at-home date nights help couples reconnect.
Jon Gosselin’s new wife had a one-word response to his emotional wedding vows.
The 48-year-old former reality TV star, who rose to fame on TLC’s “Jon & Kate Plus 8,” tied the knot with his girlfriend Stephanie Lebo on Sunday, Nov. 23 after four years of dating.
According to Entertainment Tonight, which shared a video of the couple’s nuptials, Gosselin and Lebo wed in front of 180 guests — including two of his eight kids, Hannah and Collin.
Collin served as one of Gosselin’s groomsmen, while Lebo’s daughter, Juliana, was also in attendance.

“Today, I’m definitely marrying my best friend in life,” Gosselin said while reading his vows from his phone.
“If you would’ve told me four years ago before I met you that I would be here today, I would’ve never believed you, but here we are and I don’t want to be anywhere than where I am right now,” he added.
He went on to promise that he would love Juliana as his own daughter and family.
“I vow to choose you everyday — to see you, hear you and cherish you. I promise to dream with you, grow with you and walk beside you through every chapter life brings,” he continued in the video.
His vows elicited a one-word response from his new wife: “Wow.”
“Maybe I should’ve went first,” she said as emotions ran high.
The ceremony took place at The Barn at Silverstone in Lancaster, California, according to People.
Entertainment Tonight reported that the couple are now planning a honeymoon on a Caribbean cruise sometime next year.
"Before I met you, I never knew what it was like to be able to look at someone and smile for no reason," Gosselin said of his new wife, according to ET.
"I feel like the luckiest man in the world, because I get to grow old with my best friend and the love of my life."
Who is Jon Gosselin’s wife Stephanie Lebo?
Jon Gosselin and Stephanie Lebo’s wedding comes one year after the couple announced their engagement on Nov. 23, 2024.
According to Entertainment Tonight, the couple “met at a backyard BBQ in late August of 2021 and became official just weeks later” — though they decided to keep their relationship private until 2023.

At the time of the proposal, Lebo’s father whispered a sweet message into her ear.
"You don't know how long I waited for this day for you, and there was a time where I thought it was never going to happen for you. I'm so very happy for you and Jon,” he said to his daughter.
"My best advice is never stop being in love. Love comes first,” he added.
According to her Instagram bio — which now reads Stephanie Gosselin — Lebo is a research and development (R&D) specialist and former cosmetologist.
And while they now officially have a blended family, Gosselin has already shot down the idea of growing that family with his new wife.
"We're both fixed, so it's not happening," he said in an interview with People, published in April 2024. "I'm not getting a reversal. It was annoying enough to get it fixed so I'm not going to go down that road.”
“I'm 47. She's 36,” he said at the time. "We just want to enjoy life."
Gosselin shares eight kids — twins Mady and Cara, 25, and sextuplets Alexis, Joel, Leah, Hannah, Collin and Aidan, 21 — with his ex-wife Kate Gosselin.
