The former baseball player, whois engagedtoKortnie O’Connor, said he has “no emotion” regarding King’s wedding and simply wants to move on with his life.
“I have no interest in getting dragged back into the negative narrative she’s pushed. … It’s why we’ve really kept our opinions to ourselves on this,” he told theDaily Mail. “Really, I have no emotion on her wedding one way or another. It’s like a stranger getting married. I have no connection to her.”
King and Owens, who connected through a dating app, said “I do” in front of a small group of close friends and family. Owens, 42, is a Los Angeles-based attorney and the son ofPresident Joe Biden’s sister and close adviserValerie Owensand her husband Jack.
