Mike Bloomberg and Diana Taylor marry in private ceremony in New York

NEW YORK CITY (WABC) — Former New York Mayor Mike Bloomberg and Diana Taylor married after a relationship that began with a chance meeting 26 years ago, a Bloomberg spokesperson said Monday.

The couple exchanged vows in a small, private ceremony at their Upper East Side home, surrounded by family, including Bloomberg’s daughters Emma and Georgina, according to the spokesperson.

The wedding comes more than two decades after Bloomberg and Taylor first met while sitting next to each other at a Citizens Budget Commission meeting during Bloomberg’s first mayoral campaign.
