Ashley Fonda and Alika Medeiros are married. The couple met on VH1’s reality show Dating Naked back in May and had their wedding ceremony in California on August 6.
The Ashley Fonda Alika Medeiros love story seems real and is still going strong after few weeks. Medeiros, 36, and Fonda, 27, filmed their Dating Naked episode in May. On September 18, fans will be able to watch their naked wedding on the same network that got them together.
The ceremony that took place in Los Angeles was officiated by a shaman and their families were not involved in any kind of way. In a surprising twist, the yoga instructor told PEOPLE, that his family does not even know about the marriage. Since the news went viral on Friday, it is safe to say that some of them do know now. Medeiros, a self-proclaimed sexual healer always said that he was not looking for a long-term relationship.
Fonda who is an artist said that she in love with her new husband. The young woman told PEOPLE:
“I’m truly in love with Alika. I’m so excited to see where our relationship goes and grows.”
The new wife always felt a deep connection to her new hubby. She explained:
“We really deeply connected and he taught me things. We realized we both have the flower of life tattoo. I told one of the producers, ‘I’m going to marry this man.’ ”
Who knew a naked surfing date could lead to so much depth?
Some naysayers are casting doubts on the whole thing, calling it a sham for TV ratings. Why?
Ashley Fonda and Alika Medeiros never confirmed that their marriage is legal. Since the pair was united by a shaman, they may not be considered as husband and wife in front of the law.
Dating Naked has faced a fair amount of criticism when the show was announced, until people realized that it was not really that different from other dating reality shows.
Contestant Jessie Nizewitz sued VH1 earlier this month, for showing her vagina on TV.
