Mansi’s wedding to Matt McInnis was confirmed by her costars. So, who is the lucky guy Mansi has decided to spend forever with? Swooon has all the details about her husband and their love story.
Who is Kate Mansi’s husband?
Kate Mansi’s husband, Matt McInnis, is a producer. He’s best known for his work as a coproducer of the Netflix series Jessica Jones. He also served as a producer for five episodes of the Hulu series Helstrom and four episodes of The Witcher: Blood Origin. He’s currently working as a co-executive producer on the upcoming Tomb Raider series for Prime Video.
When did Kate Mansi and Matt McInnis get married?
Kate Mansi and Matt McInnis had a surprise wedding on May 31. The couple actually tricked their 115 guests into thinking they were just having an engagement party at Redbird in Los Angeles when they actually were getting married. “Our biggest goal — and hurdle — was to maintain the surprise,” Mansi told People. “We wanted that eruption of joy, that moment where love just takes over the room.”
Kristen Vaganos, who plays Mansi’s TV sister Molly, posted a photo with the bride on her Instagram Stories, according to Soap Opera Digest. “For the record, I knew,” Vaganos captioned the photo. She also shared a video of Mansi and McInnis’ first dance as a married couple.
Giovanni Mazza, who plays Gio Palmieri on GH, was also a guest at the wedding. He shared a photo of Mansi and McInnis at their wedding and wrote, “Happy Surprise Wedding! The Dynamic Duo! So much joy and love,” per Soap Central. He also played an original violin arrangement of Taylor Swift’s “Lover” as Mansi walked down the aisle.
Thomas Dekker officiated the nuptials. Additional celebs at the wedding included Britt Robertson, Jonathan Taylor Thomas, and Shelley Hennig. Mansi and McInnis met at Hennig’s birthday party.
Back in May, Mansi posted a sweet video with her now-husband. “Is it July yet? Can’t wait to marry you,” the actress captioned the video. In the weeks since, it appears they decided to move up their wedding date!
The couple got engaged on July 3, 2024. McInnis planned the surprise proposal during a cabin trip. They announced their engagement two days later on July 4. Mansi showed off her gorgeous engagement ring on Instagram. McInnis shared a photo from their engagement trip and wrote, “Apparently today is a holiday, but I think July 3rd was even better.”
Has Kate Mansi been married before?
The actress was previously married to Blake Levin. The former couple, who met while she was playing Abigail on Days of Our Lives, got married in 2020, but they split the next year. In 2023, Mansi opened up to her TV father, Maurice Benard, on his State of Mind podcast about her painful divorce. At first, she felt like a “failure” when their marriage broke down.
“Not only was I grieving the marriage I thought I was going to have, but the future that I thought I was going to have,” she said. “In that moment, there was so much peace and so much freedom. ‘No one’s coming to save me. I’ve got to pick myself up from this.’ And that was the first moment of me really reclaiming myself.”
