‘Glee’ Star Darren Criss Marries College Sweetheart Mia Swier After 8 Years Together

Congratulations are in order for Darren Criss and Mia Swier, who just tied the knot after eight years of dating.

The Glee alum and star of The Assassination of Gianni Versace married his college sweetheart on February 16, 2019.

Darren and Mia announced their engagement on January 19, 2018. Darren shared the news on Instagram, writing, “Mia and I have had seven and a half years of fun, wacky, wonderful, CRAZY adventures together. And I’m happy to announce that we’re kicking those adventures up a notch. We’re goin for it. To boldly go where neither of us have gone before. Engage.”

The two met while in college at the University of Michigan (back before Darren Criss was a household name). Since his college days, Darren has become a huge star.

He performed on Broadway in How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying and Hedwig and the Angry Inch. He also starred as Blaine Anderson on Glee between 2010 and 2015.

Most recently, Darren starred as spree killer Andrew Cunanan on American Crime Story: The Assassination of Gianni Versace. This role won him two major awards: a Golden Globe Award for best actor in a miniseries or television film and an Emmy for outstanding lead actor in a limited series or movie. In his Golden Globe Award acceptance speech, Darren gave a sweet shout-out to his longtime love.

Their wedding was a star-studded event, with many other Glee cast members making appearances!
