At the time of their wedding —which was attended by Michele’s Glee pals Darren Criss and Becca Tobin, as well as her Scream Queens costar Emma Roberts —the couple exclusively told PEOPLE, "We are so excited to be married and grateful to be surrounded by our friends and family. And most of all, we’re so happy to spend the rest of our lives together." The ceremony was officiated by Glee and Scream Queens creator Ryan Murphy.
Michele and Reich said "I do" a year after they got engaged. Shortly after the proposal, Michele expressed her shock to PEOPLE, sharing at the time, "I think the first thing I said to him was, ‘Stop joking around!’ So I was super surprised. Everyone said, ‘Try to be present because it’ll happen so quickly.’ Which I didn’t listen to at all and blacked out and I barely remember. We both blacked out and were like, ‘What? Did we say yes? Is this happening?’ ”
About a year and a half after tying the knot, Michele and Reich welcomed their first child, 5-year-old son Ever, in August 2020. They expanded their family four years later when they welcomed their 1-year-old daughter, Emery, in August 2024.

Early in the couple's relationship, Michele told PEOPLE that Reich helps her stay grounded.
“When I’m not working, I’m at home with my cat, with my family, with my boyfriend, with the people that I love — and that’s how I reset, and that’s how I center myself,” she said in November 2017. “It’s so important to tune out the noise and the unnecessary, and just focus on the people that you love because they know you better than anyone.”
She added, “I’m very happy and I think that you can tell. I don’t really talk a lot about my personal life, but I’m also the kind of person where I always say, ‘You will see how happy I am just by looking at my face.’ I can’t hide it.”
