\"Relieved we can finally tell the world,\" he added. \"So thankful to have found my forever person, my partner-in-crime, and the love of my life. Every day is the best day with you. Nobody I would rather raise cats with and be in bed by a smooth 8pm with. Love you forever.\"

As for a wedding, Sidibe said that they will have one eventually, but shared why she typically doesn't like weddings.

\"We'll have a wedding -- I have not liked weddings since before there was like a partner involved. It's too much, it's too many things. But my mother-in-law, shout out to Sherry, she's gonna want a wedding,\" she said. \"And I don't like them because my mom was a wedding singer growing up. I've been at a lot of weddings uninvited and I've just been like the weird kid eating cake at a stranger's wedding and now I don't like them.\"
