A Love Story That Started With a Demo
Grimes and Powell’s romance began in 2020 when Powell, a professional voice actor for Disney projects, helped her create a demo reel. Introduced by Y&R co-star Bryton James (Devon), the two bonded quickly during the pandemic.
By early 2022, their connection turned into a lifelong commitment. Powell proposed on Grimes’s birthday, January 7, catching her completely off guard.
Parenthood Before “I Do”
In December 2023, Grimes and Powell welcomed their son, Bridger Elias Powell. Becoming parents shifted their priorities, and they decided not to rush down the aisle.
The couple eventually realized that the perfect time was now. Surrounded by 75 friends and family members, they made it official in one of the most vibrant and historic cities in the U.S.
A Celebration Full of Heart and Heritage
The ceremony reflected the couple’s shared love of storytelling and whimsy. Grimes wore a sleek two-piece gown by KYHA Studios, while Powell donned an emerald suit. The pair incorporated a Celtic handfasting to honor their Irish and Scottish roots, wrote their own vows, and asked Bill Rogers — known as “The Voice of Disneyland” — to officiate.
Grimes walked down the aisle to “Dearly Beloved” from Kingdom Hearts, and the couple’s first dance was to Stevie Nicks’s “Crystal.” Guests included Grimes’s uncle Scott Grimes, co-star Hayley Erin (Claire), and General Hospital alum Robert Palmer Watkins (Dillon).
After the wedding, Grimes and Powell planned to travel with their son to New Zealand before heading off to Fiji for their honeymoon.
Soap Hub sends its congratulations and best wishes to the newlyweds.
