The retired astronaut celebrated his 93rd birthday on Friday by marrying his longtime girlfriend, Dr. Anca Faur, 63, in Los Angeles, California, he revealed in a statement posted on Twitter.
"On my 93rd birthday and the day I will also be honored by Living Legends of Aviation I am pleased to announce that my longtime love Dr. Anca Faur and I have tied the knot," Aldrin wrote. "We were joined in holy matrimony in a small private ceremony in Los Angeles and are as excited as eloping teenagers."

Accompanying the tweet were two photographs from the couple's intimate ceremony, including one of the happy pair posing together, as well as another of a more candid moment of the pair in conversation.

For their special day, Faur wore a white bridal gown adorned with rhinestones, while Aldrin donned a black suit that he decorated with a medal and an Air Force badge.
Anca Faur, 63 (born on May 14, 1959), has worked as executive vice-president of Buzz Aldrin Ventures since 2019.
