Jamie-Lynn Sigler revealed earlier this week that she has been struggling with Multiple Sclerosis for 15 years.
After a battle with Lyme Disease at 19, Jamie-Lynn Sigler discovered tingling and numbness in her limbs.
Jamie-Lynn Sigler said of her diagnosis announcement, “I wasn’t ready until now. You’d think that after all these years, somebody would be settled with something like this, but it’s still hard to accept.”
However, Jamie-Lynn Sigler has been controlling the disease with medication, which has reportedly kept it stable for the last seven years.
Despite her private struggle, Jamie-Lynn Sigler isn’t letting her MS get in the way of her dream life.
On Saturday, Jamie-Lynn Sigler married her fiance, Cutter Dykstra, in a sweet “homemade” ceremony which included their two-year-old son, Beau, and their dog, Bean.
Jamie-Lynn Sigler said of her wedding ceremony, “We put so much heart and love into it. We wanted laid-back, not fancy, because that’s who we are as a couple.”
She continued, “It feels like we’re married already because we have a child and we’re already a family, but so many different life things have happened over the four years of us being together that have delayed this.”
She added, “My brother [Adam] passed away last year and you would think that would delay it even further, but it was the one thing he would ask all the time like, ‘When are you guys getting married?'”
Jamie-Lynn Sigler’s wedding day went smoothly and she reportedly was not a Bridezilla, however there was almost one serious hiccup.
A guest at Jamie-Lynn Sigler’s wedding revealed the near-mishap, saying, “While getting ready the photographer had asked to hang the dress outside the balcony for a photo op — we came seconds away from losing the Oscar de la Renta gown, as the dog had lifted the leg ready to urinate on it.”
