The “Power” star and her husband Xavier “Two” Lewis walked down the aisle on April 2 at an undisclosed location. Some of the guests included “The Breakfast Club” host Angela Yee, Lala Anthony, and Naughton’s “Power” co-star Omari Hardwick, all of whom walked in the pair’s ceremony.

Naughton’s recent nuptials to Lewis comes months after the actress revealed his identity during an interview with Essence Magazine. At the same time, Naughton told the publication in February that Hardwick introduced the pair.

Although it is unclear when Naughton and Lewis began dating, the couple ultimately got engaged around the Christmas holiday in 2020. The former 3LW singer confirmed the news on her Instagram page in January 2021.

As clips of Naughton and Lewis’ wedding made its way to social media blog sites, including The Neighborhood Talk, many fans mentioned Naughton and Hardwick’s characters from “Power” in their comments.

Naughton played Hardwick’s wife, Tasha St. Patrick, in the Starz series that followed the life of James “Ghost” St. Patrick, a drug dealer who tries to leave his criminal life behind him by pursuing legal business ventures. Omari Hardwick portrayed the role of James “Ghost” St. Patrick. “Power,” which aired from 2014 to 2020, ended with the death of Hardwick’s character.

The fans’ remarks consisted of Tasha finally finding the love of her life to Ghost coming back from the dead to be a best man in her wedding.

“She got her ex husband as the best man to her new dude okay TASHA.”

“When ya ex husband rise from the dead to be ya new husbands best man #TheSt.Patricks.”

“Tasha finally found the love of her life.”

“Tasha said Ghost please I’m marrying the love of my life. She looks beautiful.”

“Tasha said life must go on.”

Among the “Power” comments, others expressed how many need to differentiate Naughton and Hardwick from their characters on the television show. One wrote, “I can’t with y’all in these comments these Power comments, they are not their characters.”

Another said while congratulating Naughton, “Y’all please learn to separate a person from their character. Congrats NATURI.”

Still independent.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
