It was their unconditional request to have a private ceremony. Jessica is the kind of person who wants to be able to run to the grocery store in sweats and a ponytail and not have to put on a public face all the time. Mike also wanted the ceremony to be just about them. So they picked a beautiful resort (one where NBA player Steve Nash had married), chose simple attire (her dress was from J. Crew) and tied the knot.

Yes, it’s true that Melissa and Jenny McCarthy are first cousins, but their family’s name wasn’t always McCarthy.

While we’re being catty and digging deep, let’s go back to Jessica Kress’ first marriage. Turns out her first marriage happens to have been to William Kress of Green Bay, who happens to sit on the Green Bay Packers board of directors. Interesting, and I’m sure absolutely, certainly never uncomfortable for the coach. While I doubt it played into the decision to fire him a few years back, you gotta imagine William Kress wasn’t exactly morose to see this couple head out of town. Looks like they’ll be setting down roots in Dallas, so there will be plenty of distance to make the heart grow fonder!
