The good news was shared on Instagram by Formula 1 driver Felipe Massa.

In a photo of the wedding card, it was mentioned that Yeoh and Todt met in Shanghai on 4 June, 2004.

Barely two months later, Todt proposed on 26 July and Yeoh said yes.

The wedding ceremony was attended by prominent figures from the motorsport world, including Stefano Domenicali, former team principal of Scuderia Ferrari and current CEO of Formula One Group, and Luca di Montezemolo, former chairman of Ferrari.

Todt’s son from a previous relationship, Nicolas Todt, was also present at the event.
