Ray Rice and his fiancée Janay Palmer were married Friday night in a private ceremony, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
The ceremony was one day after Rice was indicted on a third-degree aggravated assault charge stemming from a domestic violence incident between the couple. Rice and Palmer were both arrested in February after the altercation at an Atlantic City Casino, but a grand jury ultimately decided not to pursue charges against Palmer.
Rice and Palmer have remained together since the incident, and have undergone counseling to help their relationship. The wedding ceremony had been planned for a few weeks.
The Ravens have maintained their support for Rice since the incident, and Owner Steve Bisciotti said in an interview this week that he will be on the team in 2014.
"He'll be back with the team. He'll definitely be back," Bisciotti said. "I know how terribly disappointing it is to Ray and his fiancée, how embarrassing it is for them. I have to have compassion towards him."
