Former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg tied the knot with his longtime partner, Diana Taylor, after more than 25 years together.

Bloomberg, 84, and Taylor, 71, exchanged vows on Monday at a small private ceremony at their Upper East Side home alongside family, including his daughters, Emma and Georgina, a spokesperson for Bloomberg said in a statement.

The pair met 26 years ago after a chance seating arrangement.

“The two first crossed paths when they sat next to each other at a Citizens Budget Commission meeting while he was first running for Mayor,” Bloomberg’s spokesperson said.

Bloomberg, a billionaire philanthropist who served three terms as Hizzoner before a failed presidential run in 2020, married Susan Brown in 1976, and they were together until 1993.

Taylor, who was also once married, was approved as chair of the New York City Ballet’s board of directors in 2021.

She defended her then-boyfriend at a “Women for Mike” rally in Texas during his 2020 presidential run, offering some choice words to people concerned about demeaning comments he made about women. 

“It was 30 years ago. Get over it,” Taylor told CBS News at the time.

“In none of them was he accused of doing anything other than saying something nasty to a woman. That is not who he is. Life has changed,” she said.

“I grew up in that world. It was a bro culture. We have come a very, very long way and Michael Bloomberg has been at the forefront of that change,” she added.

While Bloomberg was mayor, Taylor served as superintendent of banking for New York State in Gov. George E. Pataki’s administration.

She also frequently accompanied Bloomberg to events at City Hall during his mayoralty.

Bloomberg, who has switched political parties over his career, reportedly gave $80 million to Democrats ahead of the midterm elections, the Times reported last month.
