The series of photos shared by producer Mike Medavoy's wife included George showing her engagement ring as well as the couple's matching gold wedding bands. "We are so happy for @leilageorge #seanpenn getting married. We love you. Thank you for being like family, a son to mike. We are over the moon to find your soul mate true partner, [Sean]. true love that also changes the world for better," Irena had shared as her IG caption.

"You are meant to be together. God Bless you both and the family you have joined. Introducing the Penn’s," Medavoy added. While the IG post has since been deleted, it was Penn himself who confirmed the good news while being interviewed on Late Night with Seth Meyers. While showing off his wedding band, Sean revealed to Meyers the details of his and Leila's "COVID wedding" sharing, "We did a COVID wedding. By that, I mean it was a county commissioner on Zoom, and we were at the house; my two children and her brother, and we did it that way."

When Seth joked that it sounded nice to have such a minimal guest list, the Mystic River star quipped back, "Let's say there are socially-liberating factors under COVID."
