The Everything Everywhere All at Once star, 60, said ‘I do’ to the ex-Ferrari CEO, 77, in Geneva, Switzerland, on Thursday.
The happy news was reported by Brazilian racing driver Felipe Massa on Instagram. Massa shared a few snaps from the ceremony as well as a beautiful card which outlined their love story, revealing the couple first met in Shanghai, China.
It featured a sweet photo of the MIchelle — who made history in March as the first woman who identifies as Asian to land an Oscar — and Jean together. The card stated that two months after their meeting he proposed to her, and she said yes.

History: Malaysian-born Michelle made history in March after becoming the first Asian woman to score the Best Actress win for her performance in Everything Everywhere All At Once
Malaysian-born Michelle made history in March after becoming the first Asian woman to score the Best Actress win for her performance in Everything Everywhere All At Once.
The star took home the Best Actress trophy due to her game-changing role in the sci-fi adventure as Evelyn Quan Wang – a dissatisfied laundromat owner who crosses paths with other versions of herself in alternate universes.
In her acceptance speech, Michelle hailed her win as a ‘beacon of hope and possibilities’ for Asian people and urged those watching at home to ‘dream big’.
She said: ‘For all the little boys and girls who look like me watching tonight. This is the beacon of hope and possibilities. This is proof to dream big and dreams do come true.’
