Lucas' new wife opens up about 'brilliant' romance

Actor Josh Lucas' new bride let her feelings for the Sweet Home Alabama star public in a love note she posted on her Tumblr.com page days before she became the star's first wife last week.

Lucas wed writer Jessica Ciencin Henriquez in New York's Central Park and she took to the internet just before her big day to reveal all about her romance with the movie star.

In the post, uncovered by Life & Style magazine, she writes, "In a dog park in New York, on a day like the thousands before it, I decided to take a chance. Maybe it was the blue eyes staring back at me, perhaps it was the loud and comfortable laugh that met each story I told that afternoon, but whatever the reason, I let myself fall - it was terrifying, beautiful and brilliant.

"48 hours later, our lives were shared in ways I've always found difficult to do before - but not then, not with him. It fit, nothing was forced or faked, and even if neither of us understood what was happening between us, we were confident in its uniqueness and absolutely taken aback by how easily we could love.

"1 mere flip of a calendar page later, and he bent his knee in Grace Cathedral, not promising the world but instead offering honesty, love and acceptance."

Lucas proposed to Henriquez in January and the couple is reportedly expecting its first child together.
