Duplantis and Inglander Tie the Knot in French Riviera
18 Jun
Summary
- Olympic pole vault champion Armand Duplantis married model Desire Inglander.
- The couple held a private wedding ceremony at a luxury venue near Cannes.
- They had previously completed the legal marriage in Stockholm, Sweden.
Olympic pole vault star Armand Duplantis exchanged vows with Swedish model Desire Inglander last week in the south of France. The couple celebrated their marriage at the exquisite Chateau de Castellaras, a venue chosen for its personal significance as they have spent considerable time there. This romantic French Riviera ceremony followed a legal marriage that the couple completed in Stockholm earlier this year, a requirement for Swedish citizens marrying abroad.
The wedding festivities spanned multiple events, including guest welcomes at Villa Eilenroc and a reception at Villa Castel. The planning for the celebration reportedly took nearly a year. Duplantis, who has broken the world record 15 times, wore a stylish white dinner jacket, inspired by James Bond and his father. Inglander graced the occasion in a custom gown by Swedish designer Isa Lanto, later changing for dinner and the reception.
News of the wedding had surfaced prematurely earlier this year when an organizer inadvertently revealed Duplantis would miss competitions due to his upcoming marriage. Duplantis expressed mild surprise but accepted the situation, emphasizing the lifelong significance of his wedding over missing a few sporting events.
