Lance Armstrong, a former American professional cyclist, and his longtime partner Anna Hansen got married. The 50-year-old athlete posted several images from his D-Day with Hansen and his kids on his Instagram account on Tuesday, August 9. The actor expressed his gratitude for his longtime spouse and their children, calling it the “Best. Day. Ever.”
Armstrong’s feelings about getting married were detailed in a long caption:

“The evening was filled with lots of laughing and happy tears. Without you, I would not have made it over the previous 14 years. Anna, you have been my rock in every way. We had to put in a lot of effort to become the pair we are now, but I couldn’t be happier that we did. I will always be here for you and our family because I love you so much.”
Lance Armstrong mentioned that his friend “Reverend” Chadbourne Mountain performed their wedding and that Elizabeth Kreutz took the photos.
In the photos, Hansen is wearing a sleeveless, white gown with embroidery. She added blue earrings and minimal makeup to complete the outfit. On the other side, Lance Armstrong opted for a black suit, which he finished off with a blue tie and gray shoes.
The lovely event was held in Château La Coste, a sizable park in France with sculptures, artwork, and an organic winery.
You should be aware of Anna Hansen’s age gap from Lance Armstrong.
Armstrong, who was born in 1971 and is today 50 years old, is nine years older than Anna Hansen, who is currently 41 years old.
The recently married Mrs. Hansen Armstrong is from Colorado and works as a yoga instructor.
She started her Move with Anna YouTube account during the coronavirus outbreak, where she publishes instructional yoga videos. Hansen said on her website that she created virtual films for students who were unable to physically attend classes.
Lance Armstrong and Anna began dating in 2008, and after over ten years together, they got engaged in May 2017 at Lake Austin, Texas.
The former cyclist’s admission of using performance-enhancing substances caused the two of them to experience difficult times. The athlete used drugs throughout his professional career, according to a 2012 United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) inquiry.
Armstrong was permanently banned from the sport and had all of his titles and victories from August 1998 revoked once he admitted what he had done.
Max, 13, and Olivia Marie, 11, are Lance and Anna’s two shared children.
From his first marriage to Kristin Richard, which lasted from 1998 to 2003, Armstrong is also the father of twins Isabelle and Grace, age 20, and Luke, age 22, as well as Luke’s older brother.
Lance had a number of women throughout his life before Hansen. He dated Ashley Olsen and Kate Hudson, and from 2005 to 2006, he was briefly engaged to Sheryl Crow.
