Helen Briggs and Chet Johnson are officially newlyweds after they walked the aisle just two weeks after getting engaged, and two months after welcoming their fourth child
Ex on the Beach couple Helen Briggs and Chet Johnson, who shot to fame in 2016, have officially tied the knot just two weeks after they shared their surprise engagement with their followers.
The couple featured on the MTV reality show a decade ago and are now proud parents to four young children. The couple had only just welcomed their fourth child, Honey, in June, just weeks before they announced their engagement. Helen, 30, and Chet, 35, also share Ocean, five, Elvis, four, and two-year-old Peach.
After their engagement, they revealed that their big day wasn’t far away. DJ and former Geordie Shore star Joel Corry confirmed that they had tied the knot after he shared a short clip of the sweet couple following their romantic ceremony. It comes after David Beckham speaks ‘as a father’ in ‘family’ announcement after latest Brooklyn snub.

The blushing bride opted for a short, white lace dress paired with a bridal headpiece and some white stilettos, while the groom cut a smart figure in a black suit and a classic bow tie.
The couple shared their engagement announcement with a sweet video where they sat on a sofa and explained that they were entering a new ‘chapter’ of their lives. They also shared the sweet story of their engagement, revealing it was Helen who popped the question.
Chet said in the video: “I was at the gym, and I get this phone call and she’s like. ‘Do you want to get married?’ and I’m like, ‘What do you mean, do you want to get married?'” Helen then said: “If anyone knows me, I always said 10 years and I’ll decide if I want to get married or not.”
They added the caption: “Today is our 10 year anniversary… & the beginning of something even more beautiful. In a couple of weeks, we are saying “I do” We can’t wait for this next chapter….”
Friends and fans flooded the comments to send their congratulatory messages, including former Love Island star Katie Salmon, who said: “love to you guys!! 10 years!! Been a blessing to watch you grow into the most amazing wholesome real family. Happy for you all”.
One fan added: “Arrrrr congratulations love following you too. You’re both so real and so much fun”, while another said: “I love this!!! You do your wedding how you both want to! The important thing is the marriage, not the wedding”.
While the couple are stronger than ever, it hasn’t all been plain sailing as Helen accused Chet of cheating on her back in 2023. Chet denied the accusations and the couple reunited shortly after.
Helen opened up on the split on Instagram when she was asked about her relationship in a Q&A. She said: “So this question gets asked a lot so I would only like to address this once. Chet and I are back together. We went through hell and back this summer over an allegation which didn’t turn out to be true. I jumped the gun and put a statement without even reading between the lines.”
“Chet always denied the allegation and later down the line cleared his name,” she added.
“Putting a statement out there was a hasty decision on my behalf, because the evidence I had was nil and void and led to me accusing Chet of something he actually didn’t do. I don’t know why I let these trolls get to me and try and ruin my relationship. Chet and I are working hard to get back on track for the sake of us as a couple and our family, and this is the last time I will speak on this matter.”
