The renowned CBS Sports presenter, Kate Abdo, has finally married the former professional boxer Malik Scott at an exclusive private wedding. On September 8, 2024, the couple held a small, intimate wedding attended by close friends and family members.
Abdo and Scott started dating early in 2024, and the two announced their engagement earlier this year. Indeed, it was a wedding of true loving hearts full of joy and love.
This wedding was a truly intimate, romantic affair centered on the closeness with their nearest and dearest. Abdo looked absolutely stunning in her elegant off-the-shoulder white wedding dress that boasted a fitted bodice, showcasing her sophisticated style. Scott, confident in and out of the ring, was kitted out in a black patterned suit, sans shirt-a rather different look for his wedding day.
Also in attendance at the ceremony were Malik’s children, adding a family-focused element to the day. During the event, the couple shared several touching moments, as shown in photos they later posted on social media, reflecting joy and love surrounding their union. Though their respective careers often make headlines, Abdo and Scott kept much of their relationship private until that parade in March 2024. Scott, once a professional boxer himself, has remained in the spotlight as a trainer; he currently trains heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder.
Abdo, on her part, has been a face and voice known to sports enthusiasts for many years, bringing a quick wit and intelligence come sports commentary that has made her a linchpin at CBS Sports.
Their wedding announcement brought waves of congratulatory support from their fans, colleagues, and fellow athletes. Abdo and Scott took to Instagram, where they let the world in on how happy they were; for Abdo, it was a case of thanks for this new chapter of her life, with Scott simply echoing her statement with words of love toward Abdo and the future.
Of course, though the couple’s union was met with overwhelming support, it also brought about some teasing comments, particularly surrounding Abdo’s on-screen chemistry with her CBS Sports co-host Thierry Henry. Fans who have followed her close rapport with the football legend joked about the dynamic between Abdo and Henry, though all in good fun. All this playful teasing made light of what was otherwise one of the most personal and poignant moments in their lives. Abdo and Scott, however, kept their attention on the love which they shared with each other and great things to come along the path into this new life together.
