However, she later clarified to Tampa Bay Times that they were indeed supposed to tie the knot on the trip, but instead decided to put it off. She said they made the last-minute decision to instead have a more private and low-key ceremony at a local church instead, but didn't share any details about when it would take place. 'We are enjoying a happy and blessed trip and are deeply in love with each other,' she said in a statement at the time.
