It’s a love story fit for daytime television.
Longtime “General Hospital” star Steve Burton married television chef Michelle Lundstrom in a private ceremony May 17, the pair revealed to People. Burton, 54, and Lundstron, 44, who got engaged in January, tied the knot in California’s picturesque Laguna Beach.
“This day isn’t just about a ceremony,” Burton told the outlet. “It’s the beginning of forever with the love of my life.”
“It was beyond special,” said Lundstrom, who wore a strapless gown and had her makeup done by two artists and friends who work on “General Hospital.” The wedding party was comprised of Lundstrom’s two daughters from a previous relationship and Burton’s three children, along with “General Hospital” stars Jonathan Jackson and Lisa Vultaggio, People reports.
“I get to spend the rest of my life with my best friend, growing together each day in faith and love,” said Burton, who has appeared in over 2000 episodes of “General Hospital,” beginning in 1991.
“Gosh, he’s proven that fairy tale love truly exists,” Lundstrom, a star of Netflix’s “Barbecue Showdown 2,” told People. “He’s like pure sunshine – always uplifting, endlessly caring. His love makes me a better person every single day.””To have the most incredible man I’ve ever known by my side forever brings me so much peace and happiness. He is the love of my life, and I feel so blessed to call him mine,” she continued. The pair met on social media and bonded over a love of ’80s music and movies.”Honestly, I’ve never felt so loved and cared for in my entire life,” Burton told the outlet. “I’m incredibly grateful to have her by my side. She is the most amazing, beautiful, and selfless woman I’ve ever known. I love her so much.”
