The duo initially planned to get married in 2021 but had not set a date, stated a spokesman for Lujan Grisham, Jared Leopold. A spokesman added that Michelle and Manuel had to delay a planned marriage ceremony due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Manuel, alongside the Governor, said in a joint statement how delighted they were to celebrate their wedding in front of family and close ones. Like many New Mexicans, the couple postponed family celebrations during the pandemic.
Both Cordova, 66, and Lujan Grisham, 62, were previously married and had grown-up children and grandchildren. The love birds also celebrated their marriage in an event for family and close ones in northern New Mexico in late May.
