It was a life-changing weekend for ABC News Correspondent Gio Benitez, as the network’s popular personality married boyfriend Tommy DiDario this past Saturday.
The couple tied the knot in front of family, friends and colleagues at the Walton House in Miami. According to Benitez’ Instagram account, the duo has already embarked on a post-wedding journey, making a pit stop in Sydney, Australia before spending their honeymoon in Bali.
