Valli wed Jackie Jacobs in Las Vegas at the Westgate Hotel, celebrating his fourth marriage. The 89-year-old singer first met his 60-year-old bride back in 2007.

She explained, “We met at a restaurant in Los Angeles where he joined my friends and I for dinner. We kept in touch by phone until he called me and asked for a date in late 2015 and we’ve been together ever since.” PEOPLE got some exclusive photos of the newlyweds with Valli wearing a more casual suit and Jacobs wearing a white bridal gown with silver earrings. They exchanged vows in a private ceremony and reportedly, Valli sang “Can’t Take My Eyes Off Of You” to his new wife. So sweet!

This is the singer’s fourth marriage. In 1958, he married his first wife Mary Delgado, and had two daughters together. Delgado also had a daughter named Celia from a previous relationship. While they divorced in 1971, they came together to grieve as they lost two daughters in incidents in 1980, one to a fall, the other to an overdose six months later.
In 1974, Valli married MaryAnn Hannahgan. After their divorce, he married Randy Clohessy in 1984 and they had three sons together. Valli had previously been single since 2004 and remained close to all of his children and grandchildren. His twin sons often come on tour with him and his granddaughter Olivia is following in his footsteps as she has appeared in plays, including an off-Broadway run of Jersey Boys, based on her grandfather and his band members’ lives and careers.
Congrats to Frankie and Jackie!
