It was not clear if the two eloped or had a great party as Las Vegas is known for elopement. The couple was set to wed back in March in London but due to the coronavirus restrictions, it was not possible.
In a message back then, Quest noted he was gutted about the postponement but was necessary and would marry at a later date with an even bigger party.
"We will marry later in the year with a bigger party. I wanted to acknowledge how we are all facing such difficult times, in so many different ways. This too shall pass," he wrote back in March.
