Summary
MrBeast, 28, said he had "found MrsBeast" after marrying Thea Booysen in a private ceremony on Richard Branson's Necker Island in the British Virgin Islands.
Christmas Day 2024 set the path to the wedding, when Jimmy Donaldson proposed to Booysen after saying he wanted a "really private and intimate" proposal and small ceremony despite his stunt-driven online image.
500m subscribers have made Donaldson the world's biggest YouTuber, while Booysen — a South African creator, Twitch streamer and author — has nearly 140,000 YouTube subscribers.
The marriage comes as Donaldson still faces scrutiny over Beast Industries, which was sued in April by a former employee alleging sexual harassment and workplace gender bias, alongside separate complaints tied to Beast Games.
