"Honestly, we have been waiting to have a big wedding because we want to do it right and do it fancy," Betty joked, adding. "I just have to be so much more rich to throw a fierce fabulous wedding that I can actually afford. But we just felt like it was the right thing to just lock it down, so if we want to travel, we're together, we have each other’s rights and everything. We just want to feel safe and know that we can take care of each other."
The couple have been happily married ever since.

How did Betty Who become famous?
Betty's rise to the top of the pop music world started when she independently released her debut single, "Somebody Loves You," way back in 2012, per Wikipedia. The following year, Betty's debut EP "The Movement" came out, nabbing her a deal with RCA Records. With a major label backing her, Betty released her debut studio album "Take Me When You Go" in 2014.
