After 26 Years Together, Michael Bloomberg Marries Longtime Love Diana Taylor in Intimate NYC Ceremony

A private wedding at home

Bloomberg and Taylor exchanged vows at their home in New York City on Monday, November 9. A spokesperson for the 84-year-old former mayor confirmed the marriage in a post on X.

The spokesperson said the small ceremony took place on the Upper East Side and included family, among them Bloomberg’s daughters, Emma and Georgina. Afterward, the newlyweds hosted lunch for about 15 people, according to a source who spoke to People.

How the couple met

Bloomberg and Taylor first met in 2000 at a business luncheon. They encountered each other again later that evening at a restaurant, where he asked her to have a drink. The spokesperson’s post described their first meeting as a Citizens Budget Commission gathering, where they sat beside one another while Bloomberg was first running for mayor.

Taylor on family and career

Bloomberg and Taylor do not have children together. Bloomberg has two daughters, Emma, 47, and Georgina, 43, with his former wife, Susan Brown; they were married from 1975 to 1993. In a 2020 interview with The Washington Post, Taylor called herself a “sort of a step-whatever for Mike’s [two] children — friend, I guess.” She also said she had not had children because she had never wanted them with anyone, and described her career as central to her identity.
