Renowned NBA host Taylor Rooks recently tied the knot with Shane Fowler in a private yet lavish ceremony, leaving fans both surprised and curious about her new husband. The 33-year-old broadcaster shared dreamy wedding photos on Instagram, showcasing an intimate celebration attended by several A-listers. While Rooks didn’t officially announce her partner’s identity, fans spotted the name "Shane" printed on the wedding menu, leading to speculation that her husband is Shane Fowler.
Although Rooks has remained tight-lipped about her personal life, online speculation suggests that Fowler works in tech or media. His discreet presence at the wedding, combined with Rooks’ long-standing privacy regarding her relationships, only heightened interest in the man she chose to marry.
The couple’s ceremony took place in a private location on July 23, 2025, with no prior public announcement. Rooks wore a strapless satin and tulle gown with a sweetheart neckline, while Fowler opted for a pinstriped dark suit, satin lapels, and a bow tie. The newlyweds looked radiant in the photos, which Rooks captioned simply: “What a night. This is love.”
Despite the quiet nature of the celebration, the guest list featured several prominent figures, including Kevin Durant, Draymond Green, Saquon Barkley, Donovan Mitchell, Coco Jones, Jack Harlow, Lala Anthony, and Joy Taylor. Notably, no media outlets were invited.
Taylor Rooks, who began her career with the Big Ten Network, rose to national prominence through her work with Bleacher Report and TNT, where she earned two Emmy nominations. Her surprise wedding comes just weeks after announcing her departure from TNT and her upcoming role as the host of Amazon Prime Video’s new NBA studio show alongside legends like Blake Griffin and Dwyane Wade.
Congratulations to Taylor Rooks and Shane Fowler on their new beginning.
