Niecy Nash-Betts calls out Colman Domingo for wearing yellow to her wedding

Niecy Nash-Betts still hasn’t forgiven her pal Colman Domingo for the outfit he wore while officiating her 2020 wedding to wife Jessica Betts. 

While cohosting Today With Jenna & Friends on Tuesday, the All’s Fair actress revealed that she still has a “grudge” against Domingo for the eye-catching black and yellow ensemble he chose to sport on her big day.  

“I married the greatest love of my life in my backyard with 24 people, and guess who my officiant was?” Betts asked Jenna Bush Hager. “None other than the Colman Domingo.” 

A snapshot of the couple’s backyard ceremony was then featured onscreen with the Oscar-nominated Sing Sing star standing behind them at the altar. “There’s Colman!” She pointed out. “Now, I have a grudge against him, because I don’t know what he’s wearing. And I never forgave him for that. I’m like, it’s a wedding!”

Hager requested that the Today team zoom in to the photo so that she could get a proper look at Domingo’s outfit, which was comprised of a black and yellow suit, a checkered top, and white sneakers.

“He just looked like a beautiful bumblebee, but I said not for… you’re my officiant!” Betts said. “You don’t got black slacks laying around? It just made me so upset.”

And she made her displeasure over his look known at the ceremony. “I said, ‘You look like a fool! What do you have on? What are you wearing?’” Betts recalled, slowly dissolving into laughter along the way. “And now he’s a fashion guru! How come that didn’t happen before my wedding, you know?” 

Making a heart with her hands, she continued, “But I love him. I love you, Colman!” 

Prior to tying the knot with Jessica, Betts was previously married to Don Nash from 1994 to 2007 and Jay Tucker from 2011 to 2020. She explained on Today that she didn’t meet her “soulmate,” however, until she was was introduced to her now-wife.  

“See the first two times I was married, I was married to men and now I’m married to a woman,” Betts explained. “And I don’t think it’s about the gender that makes it special. It’s just… I met my soulmate, you know what I mean? I met my soulmate. I wasn’t living a sexually repressed life where I’m like, ‘Oh my God, I really want to be married to a woman!’ No. I just met the most beautiful soul.”

The Reno 911 star added that she “never thought” she’d be a member of the LGBTQ+ community. 

“I was adjacent. I was an ally, but now I’m a card-carrying member,” Betts declared. “And here’s the problem with it: I didn’t get a package. I didn’t get a manual. I didn’t get a toaster, a gift. My friends — I have friends in the community! I thought there was gonna be a parade outside of my house. I got nothing, guys! Nothing! But now I’m in all the Pride parades.”
