Niecy Nash Gushes About Wife Jessica Betts Ahead of 2-Year Anniversary!

Niecy Nash proudly declares wife Jessica Betts to be the “wind beneath my wings”!

On Tuesday while attending the Disney upfronts, the “Reno 911!” star spoke to People about her upcoming spin-off series based on ”The Rookie,” as well as her marriage to the singer!

“I love being married so much, but I also love being married to Jessica,” she said. “She is the wind beneath my wings in more than one way.”

“We’re coming up on our two-year anniversary. I don’t know how we’re gonna celebrate, but I know it’s gonna be good,” Niecy added.

In fact, at the event, Niecy displayed her love for Jessica by holding a clutch that read: “Wifey for Lifey.”

Back in August 2020, the actress surprised fans when she revealed that she and Jessica tied the knot in a beautiful outdoor ceremony!

“Mrs. Carol Denise Betts 💍 @jessicabettsmusic #LoveWins🌈,” Niecy captioned a photo from their nuptials.

According to People, Niecy first met Jessica on social media in 2015 while Niecy was still married to ex-husband Jay Tucker.

After announcing her split from Jay in October 2019, Niecy and Jessica developed a romantic relationship.

Though many believed Niecy’s wedding announcement was her “coming out” moment, she told People in September 2020 that this was not the case.

“I don’t feel like my marriage is my coming out of anywhere, but rather a going into myself and being honest about who I love,” she told the outlet. “And I’m not limiting myself on what that love is supposed to look like.”

“[My marriage] has absolutely nothing to do with gender and it has everything to do with her soul,” she said about Jessica. “She is the most beautiful soul I have ever met in my life.”

“I was not suppressing my sexuality my whole life,” she continued. “I love who I love. At one point in my life, I married twice and I love those people. And today I love this person. I’ve done everything I wanted to do on my own terms and my own way. So my choice now in a partner has nothing to do with who I’ve always been. It’s a matter of who I am in this moment.”

Last month, Niecy came on our show and spoke about the criticism that she and Jessica receive regarding their marriage. WATCH, below:
