During an appearance on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live', guest host Colman Domingo said he was surprised to learn that Nash-Betts had attended the wedding. The actress explained that guests were not allowed to share any details about the event beforehand.
“Okay, listen! Because you know, you’re under embargo. It was a top secret. You couldn’t tell anybody,” Nash-Betts said.
Now that the wedding is over, the actress said she could finally talk about the celebration, calling it simply: “So good.”
Nash-Betts revealed that the reception included games where guests could win raffle tickets and enter prize drawings.
“They had a lot of games. You could play a game, and when you get a ticket for the game you play, you put it in a bucket and figure out if you can win the prizes that they gave away at the end."
"So that part was lovely,” she continued. “I don’t think I’m speaking out of school because y’all seen it all online now, right?”
The actress also shared how Swift and Kelce ensured guests did not capture private moments from the wedding.
“But at the time, you had to zip the lip,” said Nash-Betts. “They took your phone, they put it in a glass case. It was crazy."
