Blake Griffin confirms wedding to designer Francesca Aiello after ring buzz

NBA legend Blake Griffin has quietly tied the knot with swimwear designer Francesca Aiello, confirming their marriage through a representative after months of speculation. The couple, who first began dating in June 2018 before briefly separating, rekindled their relationship in August 2023.

Griffin, a six-time NBA All-Star and the No. 1 overall pick in the 2009 draft, made his wedding public when he was spotted wearing his gold wedding band at high-profile events, including the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show in Los Angeles and promotional appearances for his new late-night talk show, *The Stepback with Blake Griffin*, which premieres October 20.

Aiello, founder of the lifestyle brand Frankies Bikinis, previously revealed their engagement through Instagram posts in early 2025, though Griffin had not publicly announced the proposal, which reportedly took place around the holidays in 2024. The pair, who have kept wedding details private, are parents to Griffin’s children from a prior relationship: son Ford, 13, and daughter Finley, 10.
