Before Ohai and Watt exchanged their vows, the pair shared a couple of photos from the tropical destination. Earlier on the day, Watt shared an image of Ohai wearing a white blazer.

Ohai and Watt were engaged for around nine months before they got married. The pair met in 2016 through Watt's former Texans teammate Brian Cushing, who in turn is married to Ohai's older sister, Megan.

They sparked their romance rumor back in early 2016 when Watt was spotted at Houston Dash, Ohai's former team's game. Later, he fueled the rumor when he sported her jersey number during a press conference.
