While engagement season is still upon us, actress Ellen Page and dancer Emma Portner decided to skip that step and go straight to marriage! The pair, who reportedly have been dating for six months, shared the news on their respective Instagram pages. They each shared a picture of their outstretched hands, each with simple, classic wedding rings. They also shared a sweet black-and-white photo in casual attire, sitting in an embrace in nature. It is not known if this shot if from their wedding day, though Ellen’s left hand can be seen, sans ring.
