Love is in the air for Alex Soros, son of billionaire George Soros, as he prepares to marry his fiancée Huma Abedin this June.
The couple, who met just last fall, are gearing up for a lavish wedding celebration that promises to be the event of the season.
Wedding Plans and Star-Studded Guest List
The ceremony is set for June 14th at the Soros family’s stunning $14.5 million estate in Southampton, located in the Hamptons.
According to insiders, some guests will arrive in style by helicopter from Manhattan.
The guest list reads like a political and cultural who’s who, featuring prominent figures such as the Clintons — Hillary, Bill, and Chelsea, along with her husband Marc Mezvinsky — and fashion icon Anna Wintour.
The wedding will also catch the attention of Vogue, which will cover the event in style.
From Engagement to Italian Celebrations
Alex and Huma got engaged in the summer of 2024, and shortly after, they were spotted enjoying romantic celebrations in Italy.
They confirmed their engagement on Instagram with a heartfelt post, where Alex wrote, “this happened…
we couldn’t be happier, more grateful, or more in love.”
A New Beginning for Huma After a Difficult Past
Huma Abedin, 48, is no stranger to the public eye. She was previously married to disgraced New York politician Anthony Weiner, with whom she shares a son, Jordan.
Though Weiner won’t be attending the wedding, sources say he’s “thrilled” for the couple.
This will be the first marriage for Alex, who is seen as the heir to his father’s vast $25 billion fortune.
Finding Real Love After Years of Searching
Alex has been open about his struggles with relationships, admitting in a candid interview that he “had been mistaking lust for love” for many years before meeting Huma.
He revealed he hadn’t been in a serious relationship for about a decade.
Friends say the couple complements each other perfectly — Huma’s ability to “smooth out the rough edges” balances well with Alex’s personality.
Sharing the Unique Life of Politics and Public Service
Huma described their relationship as “a bit of a surreal experience,” noting how their lives align perfectly.
Both live in the high-pressure world of politics and public service, often working late hours and managing crises.
She appreciates the stability and understanding they bring to each other amid the chaos.
Overcoming the Shadows of the Past
Huma’s journey has not been without hardship.
Her marriage to Weiner ended after a series of public scandals involving his inappropriate behavior, which led to his prison sentence.
She wrote about the trauma in her 2021 memoir, sharing how she endured heartbreak and shame before eventually finding peace.
Rumors and Revelations Before Finding Each Other
Before meeting Alex, Huma was briefly linked to actor Bradley Cooper, with rumors swirling around their appearance together at the 2022 Met Gala.
Meanwhile, Alex himself was once known for a lavish lifestyle but has since taken on a serious role heading the Open Society Foundations, stepping into a leadership position once held by his older brother.
Recent Controversies Surrounding the Soros Family
The couple’s wedding plans come amid recent controversy.
Alex Soros publicly condemned a violent antisemitic attack in Washington D.C. involving a young Israeli-American couple, but his statements drew criticism from some online voices accusing the Soros family of funding controversial groups.
Looking Ahead to a New Life Together
Despite the public spotlight and political drama, Alex and Huma seem focused on building a future together.
Their upcoming wedding is not just a celebration of love but also a union of two lives shaped by public service, resilience, and shared values.
