Lance Armstrong, a former professional cyclist from the United States, has married his longtime girlfriend Anna Hansen.
On August 9, the 50-year-old athlete posted a series of photos from his D-Day with Hansen and his children to Instagram. The actor referred to it as the “Best. Day. Ever.” He thanked his long-term partner and their children. In a lengthy caption, Armstrong expressed his feelings about getting married:
“It was a night of laughter and happy tears. Anna, you’ve been my rock for the last 14 years, and I can assure you that I couldn’t have done it without you. I am so pleased with the relationship we have developed – it took some effort on our part, and I am so glad we did. I adore you and will be there for you and our family at all times.”
Lance Armstrong claimed that his friend “Reverend” Chadbourne Mountain performed their ceremony, and Elizabeth Kreutz took the photos. In the photos, Hansen is wearing a sleeveless embroidered white gown. Her look was completed with minimal makeup and blue earrings.
In contrast, Lance Armstrong was dressed in a black suit with a blue tie and gray shoes. The lovely event was held at Château La Coste, a sprawling park in France with sculptures, paintings, and an organic vineyard.
