Rachel Uchitel Weds Dan Donovan in Intimate New Year's Eve Celebration

It’s wedding bells for Rachel Uchitel and Dan Donovan!Uchitel, 50, married Donovan, 58, in a ceremony before 130 guests on December 31, 2025. The journalist is recognized for hosting the podcast “Miss Understood,” as well as for her extramarital affair with professional golfer Tiger Woods.“We adore our home, and it felt more intimate to hold the celebration there,” Uchitel shared with People regarding the couple’s decision to wed at their residence. “We recently finished a significant renovation, and this was the first time we’d hosted anything since it was completed — it really came down to the final days before everything was prepared.”

The couple’s home sits on two acres of land, and they also mentioned that their wedding decor was partially inspired by Uchitel’s grandparents’ former New York City nightclub, El Morocco. She added, “There were subtle references to that glamorous history throughout the decorations.”

Motivational speaker Tim Storey officiated the wedding and escorted her down the aisle. As Uchitel also told People, the pair have a special connection that spans many years. “My father passed away when I was 15, and Tim also walked me down the aisle, which made that moment especially meaningful and emotional,” she said.

The bride and groom initially connected on Bumble, but didn’t meet in person for a full year because they were each living in different states — Uchitel in New York and Donovan in Florida. Uchitel relocated to Florida, and the pair once again matched on the app.

“We were friends for a few months, then stopped communicating because I didn’t think I was ready to date and he desired more. A few days later, I realized how much I missed him, agreed to go to dinner, and we’ve been together ever since,” she also told People. Donovan proposed in March 2025 on the couple’s eight-month anniversary.

Woods, 50, was married to Elin Nordegren when he was accused of having multiple affairs, including one with Uchitel, who later told Us Weekly she believes she struggled with “love addiction” at the time.

“I will say that that is a very real condition that I think people aren’t aware of. It’s where people confuse intensity for love and people sort of look to someone else to gain validation for not feeling secure within themselves,” Uchitel explained after the first episode of HBO Max’s Tiger documentary premiered in January 2021. “Something about myself, which I hope people can understand is that when somebody of a high profile looks at you and as everyone else wants to know that person, and that [person] only wants you, that’s the ultimate kind of validation for yourself … And how do you say no to that?”

She eventually sought help from Dr. Drew Pinsky of Celebrity Rehab With Dr. Drew.

And … it was brought into the light for me, what love addiction was, and that I really suffered from it.”
