Rain or Shine: Huma Abedin and Alex Soros' Lavish Hamptons Wedding Amid Political Stars

Huma Abedin was seen smiling as she prepared to marry billionaire philanthropist George Soros' son, Alex on Saturday

EXCLUSIVE: Huma Abedin Marries Billionaire Heir Alex Soros in Lavish Hamptons Celebration!

The who's who of Democratic A-listers flocked to the picturesque Hamptons yesterday, braving the torrential rain to witness the union of former Hillary Clinton aide Huma Abedin and billionaire financier scion Alex Soros. The 49-year-old bride looked absolutely stunning in a custom-made Givenchy gown, beaming with joy as she exchanged vows with her 39-year-old groom.

As our exclusive photos reveal, the lavish celebration was attended by none other than former President Barack Obama, his wife Michelle, and even ex-President Bill Clinton – who were whisked away from the estate in a motorcade of blacked-out SUVs, accompanied by Secret Service agents. The normally private philanthropist George Soros was seen beaming with pride as he watched his son tie the knot.

Abedin wore a custom dress by Givenchy that featured a delicate belt and olive branch embroidery with the bride and groom¿s initials sweetly woven into the design

But not everyone was thrilled about the high-profile nuptials. Locals took to social media to express their frustration at being caught off guard by the sudden influx of security and traffic congestion in the area. One disgruntled resident even went so far as to call out the Soros family for being "limousine liberals," accusing them of hypocrisy for funding anti-police initiatives while relying on local law enforcement to manage the chaos outside their estate.

Despite the controversy, the happy couple seemed blissfully unaware of the drama unfolding around them. Abedin, a longtime Clinton confidante and one-time aide to the former Secretary of State, was all smiles as she mingled with guests in her second outfit of the day – a stunning Erdem Moralıoğlu gown that was almost as eye-catching as her Givenchy number.

The rehearsal dinner, held at the estate of Soros' mother, Susan Weber, on Shelter Island, offered a glimpse into the couple's elegant taste. Abedin dazzled in a champagne-colored dress with flutter sleeves and matching heeled sandals, while her groom-to-be looked dashing in a light brown suit.

The nuptials were held at the the Soros¿ sprawling 12-bedroom Hamptons estate in Water Mill

But what exactly do we know about the mysterious bride? Huma Abedin has had her fair share of controversy over the years, including being married to disgraced politician Anthony Weiner – who texted nude pictures to young women and was eventually sentenced to 21 months in federal prison. The couple divorced after Weiner's sexting scandal came to light.

Abedin herself has maintained a relatively low profile since her divorce, but it seems she's finally found happiness with Alex Soros – the son of billionaire philanthropist George Soros, who boasts an impressive portfolio of at least 11 homes across the globe. With his family's estimated $25 billion fortune, it's clear that Abedin and Soros will be living a life of luxury from now on.

So how did they meet? According to sources close to the couple, Huma and Alex were introduced by friends at Nicky Hilton's birthday party in the fall of 2023 – and the rest is history. The proposal, which took place in New York City last May, was a romantic affair, with Abedin reportedly overjoyed when Soros popped the question.

Guests were seen holding white umbrellas and huge white tents were erected on the property, giving guests shelter from the almost constant rain and cold

As the newlyweds begin their life together, one can't help but wonder what's next for this power couple. With Alex Soros set to inherit his father's vast fortune and Huma Abedin's experience in the world of politics, they're sure to be a force to be reckoned with in the years to come.
