Samira Wiley and Lauren Morelli

Netflix’s drama series, Orange Is The New Black, became the way for the actress, Samira Wiley, and dialogist, Lauren Morelli, to meet. But before they came face to face on the New York soundstage, Samira already fell for Lauren’s mind through her script. On the other hand, Lauren developed a crush on Samira after watching her audition tape. Eventually, the two developed a friendship that somehow led to a serious relationship.

Lauren decided to leave her husband and let her lawyer take care of it. She began dating Samira, moved in with her, and started fresh. They went on several trips to get to know each other more but it was in Palm Springs that Lauren would pop the question. Samira said yes and five months later, the couple became officially married. The brides both wore a wedding dress designed by Christian Siriano for the intimate ceremony.
