Kissing my wife.
Holy shit. Shelby LeBlanc is my…wife.
CHAPTER 21
BREAKING NEWS
Did Shelby LeBlanc and Beau Devereaux get married in Vegas? Two little words say it all: They did.
By Michael Stevens
One would have to be living under a rock to have missed the viral fight between Shelby LeBlanc and Beau Devereaux Thursday afternoon at the Las Vegas Invitational.
The actual cause for the “Fight Heard Round the Course” is still unknown, with both parties declining to give specific reasons other than “tempers flaring."
However, it can now be hypothesized that their little dustup was the first squabble between husband and wife.
Pictures obtained by Golf Insider show LeBlanc and Devereaux leaving the King and Bling Chapel late Wednesday night.
Additional photos, that have been verified by Golf Insider,show the golfers kissing outside of the chapel. Images also show LeBlanc throwing a bouquet and Devereaux carrying her to a car as any husband would carry a wife over the threshold.
After seeing these photos, Golf Insider talked to two witnesses who were there that night. They indicated the couple came in laughing, and that before they kissed as husband and wife, the words "triple dog dare you" were muttered.
A records request was granted by the Clark County Records office and shows that LeBlanc and Devereaux did obtain, and sign, a marriage license earlier that night. However, neither have been wearing wedding rings during the tournament or mentioned that they tied the knot before the Las Vegas Invitational began.
LeBlanc and Devereaux, who grew up playing golf together in Louisiana, were not known to be dating prior to this tournament. In fact, it is well known through the golf community that LeBlanc and Devereaux have a long-seated dislike for each other.
Was Thursday’s fight stemming from the “What Happens in Vegas, Stays in Vegas” wedding? Or from years of rivalry that boiled over? More details will be added to this breaking story as news develops.
BREAKING NEWS: Watch Beau Devereaux and Shelby LeBlanc say “I Do” in Las Vegas
It’s been hours since Golf Insider first reported that two of golf’s best players, Beau Devereaux and Shelby LeBlanc, were married Wednesday night at the King and Bling Chapel.
Now, Golf Insider has been sent a video from the two’s nuptials. The source who shared the video said Devereaux paid them two hundred dollars to not only cut them in line for their ceremony, but to also video the ceremony saying, “We want to make sure we remember this for the rest of our lives.”
Why the two wouldn’t remember it is still a question. Itcannot be confirmed whether the two were intoxicated—Nevada law states that the clerk’s office can deny a couple a marriage license if they are deemed too inebriated—but what is known is that the couple did get the license, and, as the video will show, had no doubts about saying I do.
CHAPTER 22
SHELBY
“Ihate you.”
“No you don’t,” Beau says, kissing my neck as we wait in line at the first wedding chapel we could find that was open all night. Bonus, it’s Elvis themed. How Vegas is that? “You dared me to marry you, Belle, and I’m going to do that.”
“Should I be videoing this part?”
The question comes from the young kid Beau paid to video our ceremony.
Ha! Ceremony! I’m freaking marrying Beau. Isn’t that fucking hilarious? Because I hate him. Which makes this even funnier.
“Yes,” Beau says, pulling out his wallet and handing him another hundred. “And do you mind if we jump ahead of you in line? We have to play tomorrow and we need to get back to our room. You know. Be responsible and shit.”
The kid—who’s in his twenties, but I’m old, so therefore he’s a kid—grins from ear to ear. “Absolutely! You’re Beau fucking Devereaux!”
“Thanks,” Beau says as the Elvis in charge calls up the next couple in line. “Hey! That’s us!”
