A new family
Jennifer, 26, and Nayel, 31, tied the knot in October 2021, after four years of relationship, in a wedding held on a family farm in Westchester County, North Salem, New York.
“Easily the best day of my life. Happy anniversary to my incredible wife, @jenniferkgates. This year with you flew by, but what brings me the most joy and comfort is knowing we have countless more to live together. Love you more than you know,” Nayel wrote on October 16 to celebrate their anniversary.
