Former Child Star Ricky Schroder Marries Julie in Intimate Cabo Ceremony
It’s not every day you see a former child star exchange vows on a beach while quoting scripture and flashing a tuxedo that screams “I finally found someone who tolerates my beach volleyball stories.”
Hello, I’m Jaden Patel—your guide through the maze of celebrity life choices, where people still think getting married in Cabo is original. Today’s edition of “Love, Vows, and Questionable Life Decisions” brings us none other than Ricky Schroder, the man who once made millions swoon as the pint-sized Richie Rich and now makes millions wonder how he managed to stay upright in dress shoes on sand.
Schroder, best known for his role in *Silver Spoons* and for aging like fine wine that was left open too long, tied the knot with longtime partner Julie this summer in an intimate ceremony at the Four Seasons in Cabo. The big day took place on July 9th, though if you blinked during the middle of July, you might have missed it entirely—which is probably how they wanted it.
The couple obtained their marriage license just a week earlier on July 2 at the Ouray County courthouse, which sounds romantic only if you enjoy fluorescent lighting and waiting in line behind people named Darrell who are arguing with clerks about fishing permits.
According to TMZ, who clearly has nothing better to do than track down wedding licenses in rural Colorado, the pair met through a mutual friend from the army. Whether that means they bonded over shared trauma or just really good PTSD coping mechanisms remains unclear. What is clear is that they’re both thrilled to have found someone who understands them—presumably because everyone else stopped listening around the third story about set life in the ’80s.
In true Hollywood fashion, Schroder posted several photos on Instagram, including one where he and Julie are hand-in-hand on the beach, presumably trying not to step on any hermit crabs. His caption included a Bible verse, which is either deeply meaningful or a last-minute addition after someone whispered, “You should probably make it sound sincere.” Either way, points for effort.
This marks Schroder’s second trip down the aisle. His first marriage to Andrea Bernard ended in 2016 after more than two decades together—a run that could be described as “respectable” or “survivable,” depending on your cynicism level. Meanwhile, Julie appears to be making her debut in the public eye, which is either brave or ill-advised.
As for what comes next? No word yet on whether there will be a Netflix docuseries chronicling the ups and downs of marrying a man whose most famous role involved a golden retriever and a monocle. But we’ll be watching closely, mostly because we need to know if he still signs autographs as “Richie Rich.”
Until then, let’s all take a moment to appreciate the fact that love—like cabanas and questionable career comebacks—still finds a way.
