John Cena is officially a married man!

The actor and former WWE star tied the knot with his girlfriend Shay Shariatzadeh in a quiet wedding ceremony held in Tampa, Florida.

In general, Cena has kept his love life out of the spotlight. He told Access in January, “If you choose to do something, set up a structure that will protect it. I have a goal for sharing certain things with everybody and keeping certain things for me.”

Cena did, however, take to Twitter on Oct. 9 to post a heartwarming message about love, writing, “Love involves constant effort. When you are truly ready to let love in and give to love all it needs to flourish, I feel there is no greater more rewarding connection.”
