Congratulations are in order for Flea and Melody Ehsani!

The Red Hot Chili Peppers’ bassist, 57, and fashion designer revealed on their respective Instagrams on Tuesday that they had officially tied the knot over the weekend.


Flea, whose real name is Michael Balzary, announced the happy news with a photo from his wedding, showing the pair in their stunning wedding attire, sitting side-by-side on a bench and looking off into the distance.

“My life has changed forever and I am eternally humble and grateful,” he captioned the shot. “The person who sees all of me and knows who I am. My wife @melodyehsani ❤️❤️❤️.”

Ehsani, 39, also celebrated the occasion with a rare post of her new husband on Instagram, which gave fans another view at her gorgeous wedding gown and Flea’s unique tuxedo and footwear.

“This weekend I got to marry my best friend,” she captioned the photo of the couple standing arm-in-arm in front of a brick building.

“Surely, my best collaboration to date 😁☺️” Ehsani joked, before gushing, “you’re my whole heart @flea333 🥰♥️🥰.”

For the big day, Flea wore a lavender tuxedo and paired it with a light green bowtie and matching lime-trimmed sneakers, which seem to resemble the ones that Ehsani recently designed in collaboration with Nike.

As for Ehsani, the designer wore a long-sleeved, form-fitting, sheer gown that featured white floral embellishments and a long train. She also wore her hair in loose curls by her shoulders.

Because the couple have largely kept their romance under wraps, it is not immediately clear when they first started dating and when Flea popped the question, though E! News reports that they’ve only been engaged for close to a month.

Reps for both Flea and Ehsani did not immediately respond to PEOPLE’s request for comment.

This is Flea’s second marriage. The musician was previously married to Loesha Zeviar, with whom he shares 31-year-old daughter, Clara Balzary.

Flea was also previously engaged to model Frankie Rayder, but the pair never married. The former couple share daughter Sunny Bebop Balzary, 13.

It had taken a couple of weeks of negotiation but Joe finally got the deal he wanted and drove out of the dealership in his brand new Explorer. His girlfriend knew his real motivation for buying a utility vehicle was because he loved to go four-wheeling on Saturdays with his friends and felt a little conspicuous when he was always doing the "riding" and never the driving. Joe arrived and ran into her house as excited as a nine-year-old boy with his first bicycle. Mary was working at her computer as Joe came up behind her, gave her a big kiss on the cheek and said, "C'mon, c'mon, let's go! Let's go for a ride." They jumped into the Explorer and headed out of town. After a few minutes, Joe pulled over to the side of the road and invited Mary to drive. She got behind the wheel and found that she really enjoyed the sensation of sitting up so high with a great view of everything ahead of her. Joe instructed, "Hang a left here" and as Mary follow...
No one knows exactly why 29-year-old Iranian costume design student Mahtab Savoji turned up dead in the Venice lagoon last week. Her body, nude except for a string of pearls around her neck, got tangled up between two water taxi drivers near the Via Cipro dock in Venice Lido on January 28. After fishing the corpse out of the lagoon, a Venetian coroner determined that the woman—then unidentified—had been strangled to death at least 24 hours before her body was thrown into the murky water. Her lungs did not contain water from the Venice lagoon, and her body showed no apparent signs of violence other than strangulation. But no one knew who she was or why she was there. Meanwhile, 250 miles away, the day after the mysterious body floated to the surface of the lagoon, Savoji’s friends in Milan—where she had shared an apartment with two hospitality workers from India since November—were starting to get worried. Savoji hadn’t been answering her cellphone, which wasn’t like ...
The owner of a large southwest Alabama car dealership derided as "Taliban Toyota" by a competitor has been awarded $7.5 million in damages after a jury trial for his slander claim. Iranian-born Shawn Esfahani, owner of Eastern Shore Toyota in Daphne, Alabama, sought $28 million in compensatory and punitive damages from Bob Tyler Toyota, claiming employees at that Pensacola, Florida-based dealership falsely portrayed him as an Islamist militant to customers. "The feeling I received in the courtroom for the truth to come out was worth a lot more than any money anybody can give me," Esfahani told Reuters on Tuesday. Esfahani's lawsuit said that Bob Tyler sales manager Fred Kenner told at least one couple considering buying from Eastern Shore Toyota in 2009 that Esfahani was of Middle Eastern descent and was "helping fund the insurgents there and is also laundering money for them." Esfahani, a naturalized U.S. citizen, fled his native Ira...
