SCANDALOUS CELEBRITY WEDDING EXPOSED: GENERAL HOSPITAL STAR KATE MANSI TIES THE KNOT IN SECRET DOWNTOWN LA CEREMONY!

In a shocking twist that left their 115 stunned guests speechless, General Hospital heartthrob Kate Mansi (37) and her dashing producer beau Matt McInnis (41) stunned everyone by exchanging vows in a surprise wedding ceremony at the trendy downtown LA hotspot, Redbird. The star-studded event was masquerading as an engagement party for the couple, who had been dating for over two years.

According to insiders close to the couple, Kate and Matt had planned the secret ceremony with Ark actor Thomas Dekker officiating the nuptials, which were also attended by a slew of A-list celebrities including Fluxx actress Shelley Hennig, Home Improvement alum Jonathan Taylor Thomas, Wonder Years alum Alley Mills, and The Rookie's Britt Robertson. It was none other than Shelley Hennig who had first brought Kate and Matt together at her birthday party "a few years ago," sparking the romance that would soon blossom into a lifelong commitment.

The 37-year-old bride and the 41-year-old groom surprised their 115 guests, who believed they were attending a long-delayed engagement party, with a full-blown wedding at cathedral-turned-restaurant Redbird (2019 stock shot)

The whole affair was a masterclass in deception, with Kate and Matt donning decoy ensembles before switching into their wedding finery. The stunning bride wore her "dream" Newhite wedding dress from LOHO Bride, while Matt looked dashing in his custom suit from Malibu Clothes. As for the ceremony itself? It was an intimate and deeply personal affair that reflected the couple's unique bond.

"We put a hand on our own hearts and said, 'I got you,'" Kate revealed during the vows, "then did the same to each other." The General Hospital star added, "We invited our community to join us in that vow — to support us and each other." It was a beautiful moment of vulnerability and commitment, one that left everyone in attendance beaming with joy.

But what's truly remarkable about Kate and Matt's relationship is its unapologetic individuality. As the couple themselves put it, "Marriage to us is building [life] brick by brick with a partner who's truly all in." And it shows – the loving pair are already proud parents to their adorable 20-month-old Doodle siblings, Stanley and Georgie, whom they adopted just last year.

Kate told People on Tuesday: 'We wanted that eruption of joy, that moment where love just takes over the room. The element of discovery was everything. The relief when the secret was out was unforgettable' (pictured May 12)

Of course, no celebrity wedding would be complete without some juicy gossip. And this one has got it in spades! Matt McInnis, who is headed for London soon to begin producing a new project with Amazon MGM Studios, gushed about Kate's "bravery" and "generosity of spirit." "She inspires me," he raved. "She makes everyone around her better by nurturing qualities in them which even they may not see at first."

Kate, for her part, is the fourth actress to portray Kristina Davis on ABC soap opera General Hospital, where she's been making waves as the troubled daughter of mob boss Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) and attorney Alexis Davis (Nancy Lee Grahn). But this latest development has us wondering – will Kate take a break from her acting duties to focus on her new life with Matt? Only time will tell, but one thing's for sure: this is one celebrity couple that's about to make some serious headlines.

The Toronto-born Canadian, 37, had been engaged to the producer for just over a year before tying the knot in a stunning ceremony.

Mansi and McInnis even donned 'decoy' ensembles before she changing into her 'dream' Newhite wedding dress from LOHO Bride, and he changed into a custom suit from Malibu Clothes (pictured November 12)

As for Kate's past life as Abigail Deveraux on NBC soap opera Days of Our Lives (2011-2016), it seems she's put that chapter behind her – at least for now. And with Matt by her side, we have no doubt this couple will face whatever challenges come their way with courage and conviction.

In conclusion, Kate Mansi and Matt McInnis' secret wedding ceremony was the ultimate surprise party – one that left everyone in attendance beaming with joy and eagerly anticipating what's next for this beautiful couple. Stay tuned, folks – we're just getting started on this romantic soap opera!
