Coco Jones and Donovan Mitchell give fans first look at life as newlyweds

As per the couple's now-deleted Instagram story, the pair appeared to be enjoying their honeymoon phase. It was Mitchell who gave fans a sneak-peak of his married life with a photo that captured him and Jones showing off their wedding rings. 

The setting suggested that the duo may be inside a private jet, with white balloons in the background reading "Just Married." Undoubtedly, that is one of the best ways to show fans that they have found their forever.

The couple said 'I do' on August 1 in front of friends and family. Keeping their wedding ceremony and love life mostly private, the pair made sure they were always away from paparazzi but never stopped giving updates when it was necessary. 

As soon as they got married, former basketball player Troy Payne shared a video from the ceremony. Complex Sports also shared clip of the happy couple dancing during the celebrations. The video, which went viral, highlighted the newly married showing their moves in their white wedding outfits.

Jones wore a fish-cut off shoulder gown and a short transparent veil. Meanwhile, Mitchell opted for white tuxedo and white tie instead of a bow.

While Jones and Mitchell mostly kept their relationship low-profile, the former shared a special photo from their engagement in July 2025, after nearly two years of dating.

"After an amazing season and a sold-out tour, Donovan Mitchell and Coco Jones took a moment to recharge on vacation, which turned it into a beautiful engagement," a representative told People at the time.

"The couple has been dating for two years and look forward to building a life together," they added.
