Introducing Mr. and Mrs. Watson.
Deshaun Watson, the Browns quarterback, tied the knot with his longtime partner, model Jilly Anais, in Miami on Thursday, July 3. The date also marked their sixth anniversary of being together, as shown in photos shared on their Instagram profiles.
In the pictures, they proudly displayed their diamond wedding rings, and Watson highlighted his custom-made white shirt that featured their wedding date, “07.03.25,” embroidered on his sleeve.
Anais, who is a 2025 Sports Illustrated Swim Search finalist, as well as a music artist and cookbook author, offered a peek at her white gown adorned with lace flowers and mesh accents.
Earlier this week, Sports Illustrated Swimsuit revealed Anais and Watson’s wedding date.
Watson and Anais tied the knot just a few weeks after she hit the SI Swimsuit Runway during Swim Week in Miami — and flashed her $2.5 million engagement ring.
The Houston native is currently a 2025 Swim Search finalist.
Anais and Watson chose to forgo a wedding party and instead had their respective brothers serve as Best Man and Man of Honor.
Anais previously told Sports Illustrated Swimsuit she worked with a wedding planner and was stress-free during the planning process, adding her father would walk her down the aisle.
“ I am the furthest thing from a bridezilla,” Anais quipped. “My fiancé planned the entire honeymoon on his own.
“I still am on cloud nine. Like, I had nothing to do with it. I’m so excited.”
The couple, who celebrated five years together last July, announced their engagement in a joint Instagram post in March.
Anais stood by Watson when he was accused of sexual misconduct by roughly two dozen massage therapists beginning in March 2021. He missed that season after requesting a trade out of Houston.
Watson was suspended the first 11 games of the 2022 season, which delayed his Browns debut after signing a fully guaranteed five-year, $230 million contract with Cleveland that March.
The Browns said Watson will likely miss significant time during the 2025 season due to a second surgery after re-rupturing his Achilles in January.
He first suffered a season-ending right Achilles tear in Week 7 of the 2024 season.
Cleveland acquired Kenny Pickett in a March trade with the Eagles and later signed veteran Joe Flacco. The team also selected Dillon Gabriel and Shedeur Sanders in the third and fifth rounds, respectively, of the 2025 NFL Draft.
The Browns open the 2025 season against the Bengals in Cincinnati on Sept. 7.
