Beverly Johnson Elopes to Las Vegas


Fashion model Beverly Johnson elopes in Las Vegas with longtime boyfriend, Brian Maillian...

Congratulations are in order for Beverly Johnson and her longtime partner, Brian Maillian.
During an appearance on Sirius XM’s “Sway in the Morning” Friday, the iconic supermodel revealed that she and the financier secretly tied the knot in Las Vegas last year.
“Two days before my birthday, Oct. 13, [Brian] kept saying, ‘What do you want for your birthday?'” Johnson, 71, recalled.
“I sat up in the bed on Oct. 11 and said, ‘I know what I want for my birthday. … I want to get married.'”
The cover girl added that Maillian then said “okay,” and she told herself, “‘Did he say okay? Oh s—t.'”
Although Maillian, 73, wanted a wedding with around “1,500 people,” Johnson got him to agree to a smaller ceremony, and the pair officially became husband and wife two days later.
“It was just the right moment,” she said of their spontaneous decision.
Despite the nuptials being very last minute, the couple was joined by some of Johnson’s best friends, who she said “orchestrated” the whole thing.
The pair eventually decided on a “really beautiful” chapel and — despite worrying Maillian would change his mind — the lovebirds’ big day went off without a hitch.
However, Johnson said she told Maillian — with whom she has been for 12 years — that she wanted “a piece of property” rather than a ring.
“I got a lot of rings!” she joked.
Johnson, who made history as the first black woman on the cover of US Vogue in 1974, was previously married to real estate agent Billy Potter from 1971 to 1975.
She later wed music producer Danny Sims, who is the father of their daughter, Anansa, 45.
The former couple was married from 1977 to 1979.

I didn't think he would ever marry her. When they were on that realty show he was not interested in getting married. She hung on for life.

Bev is as toxic as she is beautiful.
She focused on her Daughter's appearance constantly on her reality show. Shameful.

Her husband is a Chairman and Chief Executive Officer - Senior Executive and Board Member with exceptional expertise in Financial Tech, Global Capital Markets and Financial Services. He is not an actor, not a rapper, not in music, not a social media influencer, not a content creator but a seasoned senior level financial executive. She's showing you how to think higher ladies. Higher!

^ Not the best example for an aspirational story because she finally began thinking "higher" in her late 50s/early 60s and it took well over a decade for her to finally graduate. But I guess better late than never. *shrugs*

She needs to stop messing with her face. Small tweeks not big major adjustments.
