Actress Paige Hurd and NBA star Royce O’Neale are officially husband and wife!

The “Power Book II: Ghost” actress and the Charlotte Hornets forward tied the knot on July 18, 2026, during a fairytale wedding ceremony at Oheka Castle in Huntington, New York. The couple celebrated their big day surrounded by family, friends, and several famous faces.

They packed the wedding with personal details about their relationship, but the biggest standout was a tribute to Hurd’s late godfather, legendary rapper DMX. When it was time to walk down the aisle, she walked to a custom string mix that blended DMX’s “X Gon’ Give It to Ya” with the classic “Wedding March.”

How Paige Hurd and Royce O’Neale Met

The couple’s love story started in early 2024 when they first crossed paths. At the time, Hurd said she wasn’t looking to date and was focused on herself, but Royce eventually won her over. Hurd shared that she initially wanted to keep things as friends, but their connection continued to grow. She described O’Neale as her best friend first, saying their relationship developed naturally over time.

For O’Neale, meeting Hurd was a dream come true. The NBA player revealed that Hurd had been his longtime celebrity crush and that he once told friends he hoped he’d meet, date, and eventually marry her.

Hurd was completely taken by surprise and overwhelmed in the best way.

After the engagement, the couple discussed their excitement about building a future together, and how grateful they were to have found each other.
