Robin Thicke Honors Late Father Alan Thicke at Wedding to April Love Geary
Robin Thicke, the 48-year-old singer, tied the knot with April Love Geary, 30, in a beautiful ceremony in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico on Friday, May 30. A touching tribute was made to Robin’s late father, Alan Thicke, who passed away in 2016 at the age of 69 due to a ruptured aorta and aortic dissection. An empty chair was left in the row reserved for close family members in remembrance of Alan Thicke.
A heartfelt message displayed on a banner on the chair read, “In loving memory of Alan Thicke, Father of the groom. We remember… Although you cannot be here with us today, your love and light remain in our hearts. We feel your presence in the gentle breeze, the warmth of the sun, and the joy that fills the day. You are forever in our hearts.”
In a sweet surprise, Robin proposed to April a second time during their trip to Cannes before the wedding. April shared the news on Instagram, expressing her joy and gratitude for the special moment. The couple’s love story began in 2014, and they got engaged for the first time in December 2018. They welcomed their daughters Mia and Lola in 2018 and 2019, respectively, and their son Luca in 2020.
Looking ahead to their wedding plans, Robin spoke to People in January 2024 about their excitement for the upcoming nuptials. He emphasized the growth of their relationship over the years and praised April as an amazing partner and mother to their children. The couple’s bond has only strengthened as they navigated parenthood together.
In March 2022, Geary playfully shared on Instagram that she wasn’t sure if Robin wanted a prenuptial agreement, but jokingly stated that she wouldn’t be signing one. Confident in their love and commitment to each other, she expressed her unwavering belief that Robin is hers for life.
The wedding celebration was a culmination of love, family, and cherished memories, with Robin honoring his father’s legacy in a touching and meaningful way. The couple’s journey together has been filled with milestones, challenges, and unwavering love, culminating in a beautiful wedding that marked the beginning of their next chapter together.
