Jorge and Rhoda got married on Sunday, July 31 at a wedding chapel in Las Vegas, NV, and then they spent some of their evening gambling at The Cosmopolitan hotel and casino.
Jorge and Rhoda subsequently confirmed the report of their wedding in a pair of Instagram postings on Tuesday.
"Forever after today," Jorge captioned a photo showing the couple kissing while framed by Rhoda's veil.
"I see forever in your eyes," Rhoda wrote in her own posting of the photo.
Another couple told the website that they witnessed Jorge and Rhoda jump the broom at their wedding and then the foursome gambled together on the Vegas strip.
Rhoda reportedly plans to take Jorge's last name.
Jorge and Rhoda already have two children together. They have a son George, who was born in March 2022, and welcomed a daughter, Zara, in April 2021.
Jorge -- who found fame when he starred on Season 4 of 90 Day Fiance followed by Seasons 2 and 3 of 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After? on TLC with his ex-wife Anfisa Arkhipchenko -- debuted his relationship with Rhoda on Instagram in June 2020.
A couple of months later, Anfisa filed for divorce from Jorge in August 2020 after the couple had been separated for months.
Jorge told Entertainment Tonight in May 2021 that he hadn't even spoken to Anfisa since the hearing for their divorce.

"I feel like I was chasing love to replace or replenish what I was missing out on... What I should've done is just change myself."

Jorge gushed last year about how Rhoda brings everything to his life he had been missing and searching for in previous years.
Jorge said Rhoda is everything he had been "desiring" in life and their relationship is "perfect."
"I desired to feel love from somebody else as much as I loved the person. [Our love is] absolutely [mutual]," Jorge gushed at the time.
He added, "When I was locked up and going through the situation that I was going through in my past, I definitely didn't foresee this in my future. And now, just going through it and being here in the present time, it's almost like living a dream."
Jorge, who claims he lost 133 pounds while in prison, insisted in April 2020 his dramatic weight loss definitely contributed to his breakup with Anfisa.

Jorge was arrested at age 28 in February 2018 with nearly 300 pounds of marijuana in the trunk of his car in Arizona.
Jorge claimed around that time his prior criminal record -- which includes two previous convictions for cultivation of marijuana -- is why he didn't receive a lighter sentence to begin with.
"With the charges against me, I was looking at around 24 years or something like that. [It was] some ridiculous number," he told TMZ in 2018.
"But luckily, my lawyer was able to work out a plea agreement and I got the charges dropped and I ended up pleading to a class 4 felony in Arizona."
Jorge was released from prison on May 11, 2020.

Jorge was a 27-year-old from Riverside, CA and Anfisa was a 20-year-old from Moscow, Russia when Anfisa arrived in America on a K-1 visa to be with her love and the pair starred on 90 Day Fiance.
Anfisa didn't exactly deny she was in the relationship for Jorge's money, but she believed he, in turn, was dating her primarily for her looks. Regardless, the pair got married in a simple courthouse ceremony.
Jorge and Anfisa confirmed in October 2018 they wouldn't be returning to 90 Day Fiance.
Anfisa dedicated her time to fitness while Jorge spent his time in prison, and she has since become a competitive bodybuilder.
"To fill the void that I felt after Jorge was sentenced and I was left on my own I decided to try to stay busy and do what I enjoy the most and it was working out," Anfisa previously said on Instagram.
Last month, Anfisa also announced she has officially become a U.S. citizen.
