Mr. Kraft Gets Married in the Star-Studded Wedding of the Century

Source - New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft married Dr. Dana Blumberg in a star-studded surprise wedding in New York City on Friday night, Page Six has exclusively learned.  We hear the 81-year-old billionaire and 47-year-old doctor invited guests to a “Kickoff and a Touchdown” party at the Hall des Lumières in lower Manhattan and told them to dress festively, but did not disclose that they’d be tying the knot.

Sources say the couple showed a moving 10-minute video before they were introduced to the crowd of about 250 as husband and wife by the voice of NFL commentator Al Michaels. …

Kraft told the crowd that the couple only hatched plans for the lavish wedding celebration mere weeks ago after they went backstage at Sir Elton John’s recent “Farewell Yellow Brick Road” tour stop at Gillette Stadium. …

When the couple said they were thinking of quietly eloping, John, 75, apparently told them, “Well, when you get married I want to play as a gift!” The couple took the rock legend up on his offer. 

Other performers at the elegant celebration included Sheeran and Meek Mill, spies told us. Kraft and Blumberg had a first dance as Sheeran played an acoustic number. Grandmaster Flash DJ’d the event and played the hora before it all turned into a big dance party. There was also a seven-tired wedding cake. 

Guests, including former Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, munched on food ranging from caviar to knishes. The NFL pro, 45, was all smiles as he arrived without wife Gisele Bündchen and was seen hanging out with Jon Bon Jovi inside the venue.

The Buccaneers star was later spotted huddling with former Pats quarterback Drew Bledsoe — whom he famously replaced on the team — as well as other ex-teammates including Andre Tippett, Vince Wilfork and Richard Seymour.

Mr. Kraft! You sly, sly dog!

Name another human being who could’ve pulled this off. A stealth wedding. With this guest list. Name just one. I’ll wait.

No I won’t. It’s a waste of time. No one alive could pull this off except for this mogul/philanthropist/happily betrothed man.

A lesser billionaire would simply have eloped, as he and Dr. Blumberg discussed. Maybe still under a trellis on some beach somewhere with immediate family and a justice of the peace doing the ceremony. I’m going down to City Hall, throw in 10 bucks through a window and said “I do,“ like they were betting on a horse. But as we have seen over the last 30 or so years, this is a man who doesn’t do half measures. Nor does he merely go pick. He goes big to the millionth power.

I mean, just look at that lineup of attendees. Rocketman. Meek Mill. Tom Brady, in the middle of an NFL season, no less. (Lone Wolfing it, which is a topic for another blog.) The GOAT of sportscaster. A rock ‘n’ roll Hall of Famer. Two NFL Hall of Famers. Two Patriots Hall of Famers. This is the kind of guest list befitting a royal wedding. But even all the money in the British treasury couldn’t get these guys to show up. Only this remarkable man.

On a personal note, I was not invited. Which is fine. I’m in New Hampshire doing comedy anyway. And Mr. Kraft understands that with the game against Cleveland Sunday at 1:00, this is a working weekend for me. We all have our jobs to do. Mine is to write about his team. His is to be the most amazing man alive. One who can walk with kings, and never lose the common touch. Now happily married once again. Cheers to the bride and groom. And Mazel Tov to all.
