Pretty Little Liars alum Ashley Benson, who broke the internet with her exciting pregnancy news this week, has reportedly just gotten married too!
According to People, the 33-year-old actress tied the knot with her 44-year-old new husband Brandon Davis recently, though there are few details about the nuptials.
Benson also confirmed the rumours of her pregnancy on Monday after being photographed shopping for her baby registry at the Babylist Beverly Hills Showroom.
The exciting news comes after the lovebirds, who have been publicly linked since January, announced their engagement during the summer with one very impressive – and gigantic – diamond ring on Benson’s finger. She reportedly met Davis, a billionaire oil heir, through mutual friends.

Brandon Davis is the grandson of an oil tycoon
Brandon Davis comes from wealth – a lot of it. According to British media, he is the grandson of the late Marvin Davis, a billionaire oil tycoon who was once on Forbes’ world’s richest list and owned assets including 20th Century Fox and the Beverly Hills Hotel.
Per People, Brandon has two brothers, Alexander and Jason, and two half-sisters, Mariella and Isabella Rickel. Jason sadly died in 2020 of a Fentanyl overdose at the age of just 35, the magazine reported.
He was a 2000s “party boy”
Look back at all the hottest parties from the mid 2000s, and you’ll likely find pics of Davis there. However, per W Magazine, at the time he was dubbed the “famously greasy” oil heir for his often inappropriate drunken dance floor antics.
The former party boy still attends plenty of high-profile events today.

He had a “feud” with Lindsay Lohan
The celebrity feud between “frenemies” Lindsay Lohan and Paris Hilton was no secret back in the noughties, but does anyone remember when Hilton’s sidekick Davis got involved too?
In fact, the whole thing reportedly started because of him, according to W Magazine. Back in 2006, after news surfaced that Lohan had been spotted with Greek shipping heir Stavros Niarchos, one of Hilton’s exes, Davis retorted: “I think [Lohan] is worth about US$7 million, which means she’s really poor. It’s disgusting,” he said. “She lives in a motel.” He also referred to Lohan as “a fire crotch”.
