That's so… marriage! The Disney Channel's Raven-Symoné is officially married to Miranda Pearman-Maday. The couple revealed their relationship milestone Thursday, June 18, by sharing the first photo from their intimate wedding.

"I got married to a woman who understands me from trigger to joy, from breakfast to midnight snack, from stage to home," the star of That's So Raven wrote on Instagram. "I love you Mrs. Pearman-Maday! Let's tear this world a new asshole!!! I's married NOW." (That's So Raven remains the most-watched show on the Disney Channel of all time. Symoné headlined the family-oriented series about a girl who gets premonitions from 2003 to 2007.)

Symoné, 34, hinted at the wedding leading up to the grand announcement by sharing on social media that "something happened." Alongside a photo of a champagne glass, the Cheetah Girls actress wrote: "So something happened this week, that has changed my life FOR THE BETTER!"

The newly-married star also expressed gratitude to those who witnessed the special occasion. "Thank you to all those who helped and for those who understand why it was small during this time," she wrote.

Symoné, whose breakout role was at age 3 as Olivia Kendall on The Cosby Show, has long been private about her love life. In 2013, with the U.S. Supreme Court's decision for equality in marriage, the actress opened up about her sexuality. "I can finally get married! Yay government!" she tweeted. "So proud of you."

In a 2014 interview with Oprah Winfrey, Symoné said she knew of her sexual orientation since the age of 12. "I don't want to be labeled gay," she said. "I want to be labeled a human who loves humans." Two years later, the star opened up further about her sexuality in a docu-series. "I never thought I would come out because my personal life didn't matter," Symone said on the "It Got Better" series in 2016. "It only mattered what could be sold as part of the Raven Symoné brand."
