Surprise! Tommy Dorfman, the star you loved in 13 Reasons Why and Love, Victor, has just dropped some big news—she got married and kept it a hush-hush affair! Late last year, Dorfman and her girlfriend Elise Williams exchanged vows in the most low-key style, and she’s only now letting us in on the secret.
Tommy Dorfman’s Secret Wedding Details
Tommy took to Instagram to spill the beans about her super-secret wedding. “I married my best friend and didn’t tell anyone,” she revealed, adding that the only other soul present was a photographer friend who captured the special moments. The duo picked up their wedding dresses from Dover Street Market in New York, making their big day a blend of simplicity and perfection.
How Tommy and Elise Met and Fell in Love
The love story began on Hinge back in 2021, and it didn’t take long for things to get serious. Within two months, they were engaged, and despite the whirlwind romance, they only moved in together after a year. According to Dorfman, falling in love can really throw your “responsibility barometer” off balance—but isn’t that the fun part?
The Decision to Elope
In a heartfelt Vogue essay, Tommy opened up about their decision to elope. Her bride, a private person by nature, never dreamed of a traditional wedding. As for Tommy, having been through a grand wedding once, she was all for something more intimate this time around. They didn’t plan extensively, but a playful conversation by the ocean in Malibu turned the idea of an impromptu wedding into a reality. Before they knew it, a concierge service in Los Angeles was making it all happen, keeping their marriage under wraps with California’s confidential marriage services.
A Day to Remember
On the day of their secret wedding, after a quick search on Google and a phone call, a man showed up at their hotel in Santa Monica. He snapped some photos, and by evening, the newlyweds were enjoying a concert, still keeping their marriage a secret from the world.
Sharing the Love
Recently, Tommy decided it was time to go public. “A few weeks ago we decided to say let’s celebrate this our way,” she shared on Instagram, choosing Vogue as the platform to express their joy to the world.
Tommy Dorfman’s story isn’t just about marrying in secret; it’s about embracing love on your own terms and having a little fun along the way. Now, with their love officially out in the open, Tommy and Elise are ready to continue their journey together, but this time, with all of us cheering them on!
Tommy Dorman Comes Out
The actress reintroduced herself to the world as a transgender woman in July, 2021.
“For a year now, I have been privately identifying and living as a woman — a trans woman,” Dorfman told Time Magazine. “I’ve been living in this other version of coming out where I don’t feel safe enough to talk about it. So I just do it. But I recognize that transitioning is beautiful. Why not let the world see what that looks like?”
“Coming out is always viewed as this grand reveal, but I was never not out. Today is about clarity: I am a trans woman. My pronouns are she/her. My name is Tommy,” she concluded.
