Chat show queen Ricki Lake marries for third time as she shows off quirky wedding dress

American actress Ricki Lake has tied the knot with her fiancé Ross Burningham in an intimate ceremony.

The 53-year-old - who announced their engagement less than a year ago - marries five years after the death of her second husband.

The chat show queen took to Instagram to share a few snaps from the ceremony with fans.

"We did it! 1/2/22. Ross and I said I DO!" she captioned the snaps of her and Ross beaming with joy.

In two of the pictures, Ricki can be seen standing on a stepping stool as she exchanged her vows with Ross.

"The happiest of days! 1/2/22," she captioned a picture of her smiling at her new husband.

Ricki and Ross looked stunning in their casual outfits.

The bride shunned the traditional white dress and opted for a yellow caftan, simple necklaces and had a flower in her hair.

Singer Debbie Gibson wrote: " So happy for you both YAYYYYY!!!! XO" while Tess Holliday posted: " Yayyyyyy."

"I couldn’t love this more. Mazel Tov!!!" one user wrote.

Another shared their excitement in all capital letters: "YES!!!!!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!"

Actress Cheryl Hines posted: "That’s amazing! So much love to you!" while Hocus Pocus actress Kathy Najimy wrote: "Richard!! Congratulations Angel head! I love you!!"

Back in February 2020, Ricki shared the amazing news of her engagement with her fans.

"Friends, I’m so so so excited to share some good news! I’m engaged! This is Ross. He is my person. He is wonderful," she wrote.

"I love him very much and I am so grateful I get to love and be loved so deeply by this stellar human.

"Our next chapter is sure to be a good one."

Ricki was previously married to Christian Evans between 2012 and 2015.

A few years after they parted ways, Christian, who battled bipolar disorder, died by suicide.

She explained previously: "He wasn’t stable, and he was so fragile. But I was still in love with him, so there was something romantic about it. I wanted to save him."

Before marrying Christian, she married Rob Sussman - with the former couple sharing children Milo, 24, and Owen, 20.

They got married in Las Vegas back in 1994 and stayed together for 10 years.
