Patrick Schwarzenegger and Abby Champion are officially married. The 31-year-old actor and his 28-year-old model bride tied the knot over the weekend in a private ceremony held at the exclusive Gozzer Ranch Country Club in Coeur D’Alene, Idaho, according to DailyMail.com.
Family-Filled Celebration
The wedding was attended by close friends and family, including Patrick’s famous parents, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver, as well as his sister Katherine Schwarzenegger and her husband, actor Chris Pratt. On Abby’s side, her parents Greg and Laura Champion were present, along with her sister Baskin Champion, who is also a model.
A Relationship Years in the Making
Patrick and Abby began dating in 2015 and got engaged in 2023. Though they had originally planned to marry sooner, the wedding was delayed due to Patrick landing a role in the hit TV series The White Lotus, which filmed in Thailand.
Speaking to Drew Barrymore during a talk show appearance, Patrick explained: “We got engaged and were riding that high, but a few days later I booked White Lotus. I told Abby we’d have to push the wedding. She was actually thrilled—she’s a huge fan of the show.”

From Unexpected Beginnings to Forever
Their love story had an unconventional start. Patrick revealed that Abby was initially on a date with one of his friends when they met. “At first, she blew me off,” he said, “but eventually we went on a date.”
Reflecting on their journey, he added, “Over the years, I’ve fallen more in love with the kind of person she’s become—and the relationship we’ve built.”
