The Summer I Turned Pretty star plays Jeremiah Fisher on the hit Amazon Prime Video coming-of-age romantic drama series with Lola Tung and Chris Briney. The show is based on a book of the same title by Jenny Han and follows Isabel “Belly” Conklin (Tung) who finds herself in a love triangle with two brothers – Conrad (Briney) and Jeremiah.
In an Instagram post on 12 November, Casalegno shared photos of his wedding to girlfriend Cheyanne King.
Casalegno, 25, wore a black suit, while his bride wore a strapless wedding gown with sheer white sleeves.
“Forever captivated by you,” Casalegno captioned their photos.
Fans were surprised by the news, as the actor had not confirmed or even alluded to their relationship before.
“Okay hard launch!” wrote one fan, while another echoed their thoughts, writing: “The hardest hard launch i’ve ever witnessed.”
While it is unclear when the couple first began dating, People reported that a man who looks like Casalegno appears in an Instagram photo posted by King in September 2023.
After the show dropped in 2022, fans were quickly charmed by the fictional New England town of Cousins Beach that it is set in, especially the Fishers’ sprawling waterfront holiday home, where a majority of the drama happens.
The Independent’s Adele Cardani drew up a guide on how to recreate the seaside style at home, writing: “The show’s setting has me reminiscing about a long weekend I once spent on the charming island of Martha’s Vineyard, just off the coast of Cape Cod in Massachusetts. The summer colony’s preppy lifestyle is punctuated by faded red chinos, liberal lobster roll consumption, and sunny days spent under sail. And like in Jenny Han’s book-turned-TV-series, the region’s stately clapboard houses are a paradox of sorts – combining the novelty of being on holiday with the familiarity and comfort of home.”
