Q: What does a late night host do when he needs fresh material? A: He gets married.

On last night’s episode of The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson, the Scottish comedian surprised the audience with details about his recent time off. The 46-year-old revealed that he wed his longtime girlfriend, Megan Wallace Cunningham, during the holiday break.

“The wedding took place in Vermont, where they have legalized gay civil unions—and I married a woman,” Ferguson clarified. “But I am European, so I was both the groom and the maid of honor.” Craig later joked that his ring - installed with the latest GPS technology - would shock him like a dog collar should he ever get too close to a stripper.

This was Ferguson’s third trip down the aisle. He also has a 7-year-old son from his second marriage.
