"We are a family. A beautiful wonderful family and will be for always," she wrote. "Some folks have assumed we had already done this, but truth be told we had other priorities in becoming a family. Now it feels right. I get to marry this beautiful man. I get to call him my husband and to be his wife and I am the luckiest."
Hunt and Nelson have a two-year-old son, Sean Theodore.
Hunt is the co-creator of Ted Lasso and played Coach Willis Beard on the Apple TV+ series. The show completed its third season in May.
