Pink Floyd co-founder and long-time solo artist Roger Waters married Kamilah Chavis.
Waters posted photos of the occasion on Facebook yesterday, with the comment, “I’m so happy, finally a keeper.”
According to Yahoo!, Waters met Chavis at one of his concerts, when Chavis drove the car that brought him to the show.
“I was in the same place for two weeks and we were being transported between the hotel and the stadium. My security guard would sit with her and they’d talk while I was in the back. I don’t know, something attracted me,” he recalls. “One day I said, ‘Excuse me,’ and she turned around. ‘Did someone ever tell you that you have beautiful cheekbones?’ I saw a small reaction, and that was the beginning.”
This is Waters’s fifth marriage. He split most-recently in 2015 with Laurie Durning.
The ceremony took place at Waters’s Bridgehampton estate on the eastern end of New York’s Long Island.
