The 36-year-old ‘Scandal’ star tied the knot with the 32-year-old San Francisco 49ers cornerback. Records show that Washington and Asomugha filed a marriage license on June 24 in Blaine County. Though it appears the two actually got married in the town of Hailey, Idaho  with her parents as witnesses as Asomugha’s sister officiated.
“It has been recorded in the Blaine County clerk’s office that Nnamdi Asomugha and Kerry Washington have been married on the 24th of June in the town of Hailey, Idaho,” the clerk’s office told US Weekly,” in a statement.
According to reports, the couple has been dating since the summer of 2012. Washington was previously engaged to actor David Moscow; they split in 2007 after several years.
“Turning 30 was a time when I thought, ‘wait a second. How much of my life really reflects who I am and who I want to be?’ the ‘Vanity Fair’ cover girl told ‘The New York Post’ after their breakup.
“I’ve learned more about myself since leaving that relationship. Coming out of an engagement, I don’t even try to guess what my life is going to look like in the future anymore,” she said at the time, noting that wedding planning was “hard” for her. “The important thing is to not be afraid of making decisions that are right for me. It’s my life. Not anybody else’s.”
