Zach Bryan Marries Samantha Leonard in Spain

Published 1 January 2026

Country singer Zach Bryan and his girlfriend Samantha Leonard appear to have married in a private ceremony in San Sebastian, Spain, on New Year's Eve. Video footage circulating online shows the 29-year-old musician, dressed in a black tuxedo and sunglasses, carrying Leonard, 28, who wore an elaborate wedding gown with a long veil and held a bouquet, toward a waiting convertible adorned with a "Just Married" banner. The couple laughed as they drove off down a cobblestone road, according to the clip first shared by the celebrity gossip account Deuxmoi and later obtained by TMZ.

Bryan did not immediately confirm the nuptials through a representative or on social media. However, the day before the event, on December 30, he posted a black-and-white Instagram photo of himself with a group of men in formal attire, captioning it with lyrics from the Black Eyed Peas' 2009 hit "I Gotta Feeling": "Tonight's the night, let's live it up. I got my money, let's spend it up. I feel ... Go out and smash it, like, Oh my God! Jump off that sofa, let's kick it off. I feel." The image and caption fueled speculation among fans about an impending wedding.
