Later that evening, the newlyweds met the media for an interview where Benjamin admitted that holding a wedding in the midst of a pandemic has indeed been a big headache, especially since the city is currently experiencing a surge in infections.

In fact, police officers were seen showing up at the venue to make sure all the necessary precautions were being observed, but they didn’t stay long and the rest of the event went off without a hitch.

According to Bowie, they limited the number of guests as much as possible and consulted a lawyer for advice. They also tried to maintain a safe environment by providing hand sanitiser, doing temperature checks, and making sure that everyone wore a mask. Hashtag COVID wedding things.

“Hopefully things will get better next year so we can throw a wedding banquet for everyone to come and party for one night,” said Benjamin.

Still, they weren’t going to let the outbreak put a damper on the occasion. Benjamin confessed that he couldn’t stop himself from bursting into tears of happiness when he first saw his father-in-law walk out with Bowie during the traditional Chinese ceremonies. “I had never seen him cry like that before,” said the bride.

When asked whether the couple can be expected to announce any baby-related good news soon, Bowie laughed and exclaimed, “You can tell I’m not pregnant just by looking at this dress! We are not in a rush to have kids and want to enjoy our current lives first.”

Benjamin added that his wife loves her job very much, so unless there is an ‘accident’, they have no plans to start a family yet despite their parents’ wishes for them to do so as soon as possible (typical). “However, I feel like I have already started to overflow with fatherly love,” said the actor.

As for how much the wedding cost, Benjamin claimed that he has not done any calculations as happiness is the most important thing, not money. The past few years have been the happiest of his life, and none of it can be bought with money.

Easy for someone with a multimillion-dollar home to say, but we digress.
