Rugby league great Sam Burgess married his partner Lucy Graham in a lavish Italian wedding after two years of dating.
The former NRL star, 35, and his girlfriend shared the news on Instagram on Monday night with a carousel of stunning photos captured at Villa Aurelia.
This 17th-century baroque property is located at the highest point within the walls of Rome and offers stunning views of the city.
Sam's new wife is a 33-year-old hairdresser and fashion designer from Leeds, England.
The couple shares a daughter, Robbie, whom they welcomed in September 2023.
Lucy's identity was revealed in 2022 after the retired South Sydney Rabbitohs star took her as a date to the premiere of Russell Crowe's film Poker Face in Rome.
The English-born stunner is the co-founder of sustainable fashion brand Sentence, which launched in September 2019.
She was also a member of the British girl group The Ultra Girls on The X Factor UK in 2009.

A source close to the footballer, who was born in West Yorkshire, England, previously told Daily Mail Australia that the newlyweds have known each other for more than 20 years.
On Sunday, Lucy wore a champagne-toned dress by designer Paula Nadal that featured a structured bodice that fell to a voluminous floor-length skirt.
The blonde beauty added a touch of drama to her look with a long veil that cascaded down her back as she clutched a beautiful bouquet of flowers.
She wore her highlighted hair in loose, bouncy waves with a center part and showed off her delicate features with a subtle makeup palette.

Lucy's identity was revealed in 2022 after the retired South Sydney Rabbitohs star took her as his date to the Rome premiere of Russell Crowe's film Poker Face.
Meanwhile, Sam appeared in the fictional character James Bond in a black suit paired with a white pocket square.
The South Sydney Rabbitohs legend accessorized his look with a stylish watch and a unique boutonniere pinned to his lapel.
The couple looked deeply in love in the black and white frame as they were seen kissing passionately in a garden surrounded by ornate flower arrangements.
In another image, the newlyweds are seen running through a cavernous room with abandon, grinning from ear to ear.
Earlier this year, Lucy enjoyed a wild hen party in Ibiza ahead of her wedding.
The bride showed off her incredible figure in a white bikini in a series of photos posted to Instagram by the Leeds stunner.
She worked on her curves in a skimpy swimsuit while wearing a veil and cat-eye sunglasses.
The couple ensured that their daughter Robi was an important part of the day's celebrations.
Sam proposed to Lucy in June 2023, nine months after they went public with their relationship.
Three months later, the two welcomed their first child together.
She was also a member of the British girl group The Ultra Girls, who featured heavily on The X Factor UK in 2009.
'[It happened] In the big final week, we're excited,” Sam revealed on Channel Seven's Sunrise.
'I'm getting very little sleep and I'm getting used to it again, but it's great!' said the proud father.
“She is as amazing and beautiful as her mother,” he added.
