Jill Scott is a married woman!
Yesterday (June 25), Jilly from Philly wed her longtime beau Mike Dobson in a private ceremony thanks to Instagram photos and videos posted by the groom’s friend, DJ Mars.
In the clips, Jill looked radiant in a low-cut lace gown with a jeweled belt as she and her new hubby Dobson basked in the glow of their new lives together.
DJ Mars captioned the deets of the wedding, revealing he didn’t know his buddy was marrying Jill Scott:
“So my man called me a year ago and said, ‘Mars I need you to DJ my wedding…don’t get booked on June 25th, 2016!’,” he wrote. “He came to my house and gave me the deposit early, but he didn’t say he was marrying Jill Scott!!!!! Damn homie!!!!!!!!!! This wedding made my summer!” Mars continued. “I’ve known Mike for almost 20 years, but dude could have alluded to the fact that he was marrying Jill Scott(lol)! All he said was, u are working with her in Vegas. He’s a total class act, he won with the wedding! #djmarsapproved.”
Mars also revealed that he hooked up the groom with a surprise performance by Big Daddy Kane at the reception.
“So, Mike Dobson called me and said, ‘I’m going to surprise my wife during the reception and have Big Daddy Kane perform,'” Mars wrote. “He then says, ‘Mars you call Kane to work it out.’ So im gassed because I’m on the phone strategizing with arguably one of the best rappers period (top 5 of anyone’s list)! Me and Big Daddy Kane on the phone, im geeked! No one knew but me and the husband knew he was about to perform. Dude walks in and they didn’t even recognize him until he starts rapping. Her face is soooo priceless! #jillscott #mikedobson #bigdaddykane #djmarsapproved.”
This is the second marriage for Scott, who was married for six years Lyzel Williams
She was also previously engaged to her drummer Li’l John Roberts, with whom she shares a 7-year-old son.
