Figure skating star Johnny Weir tied the knot on New Year's Eve.
The three-time U.S. champion married Atlanta lawyer Victor Voronov in New York. Weir said in a Twitter post Saturday the two will have a wedding this summer, but "all the official stuff is done now!" He thanked fans in another post late Monday, saying the well wishes mean a lot.
The two-time Olympian came out last January in his autobiography, "Welcome to My World." He had previously avoided questions about his sexuality, saying he wanted people to see him "for who I am, not what I am."
Weir has not competed since the Vancouver Olympics, where he finished sixth. He has not ruled out a comeback for the 2014 Sochi Games.
