If you have ever wondered what happens when a Hollywood wedding mixes Lebanese cultural traditions, a mechanical bull, and a cast prank that has been running for five years on one of television’s most chaotic shows, Jack Quaid just answered that question in full. Nearly two months after quietly tying the knot in Australia, the The Boys star finally broke his silence about the whole thing, and it turns out the day was exactly as chaotic and joyful as you might expect from someone who spent five seasons surrounded by that particular group of people.

When and Where Did Jack Quaid and Claudia Doumit Get Married?
Jack Quaid and Claudia Doumit married on April 18, 2026, at Mona Farm in Braidwood, Australia. The location was chosen because Doumit, who is of Lebanese and Italian descent, was born and raised in Australia, making it a natural choice for the celebration.
Quaid appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on June 11, 2026, where host Jimmy Kimmel congratulated him on the news. Quaid immediately held up his left hand to flash his wedding band, stuck his tongue out, and shouted “It happened! So happy about it,” before launching into the details.
The Lebanese Cultural Tradition That Left Americans Confused
One of the most memorable moments of the reception came straight from Doumit’s family heritage. Quaid explained that he deliberately kept one part of the evening a secret from his American guests, knowing exactly what was coming.
“Half of her family’s Lebanese, and the thing they like to do in their weddings is… it was the beginning of the reception, we’re coming into the big tent, and we had a guy, I told none of the Americans this, they were very confused, I had a guy with a big drum, and then we came out, music played,” Quaid recalled.
The moment escalated quickly. Doumit’s Lebanese relatives lifted the couple onto their shoulders in a traditional celebration, leaving the American guests simultaneously bewildered and fully on board.
“Claudia’s Lebanese relatives, all her relatives, they got up and lifted us up on their shoulders. It was amazing. The Americans were very confused, but very game,” he said.
However, the energy that moment generated turned out to be almost too much to manage. Quaid described it as his only real critique of the entire day.
“If I had one note for my wedding, it’s that people got too amped, too fast. Because of the drums, it was like we were begging people to sit down and eat dinner. I remember I had friends coming up to my table, being like, ‘I don’t know what’s happening, but I love you!’ It was great. It was really good.”
The Boys Cast Pulled Their Famous Prank at the Wedding
Over the course of The Boys’ five seasons, the cast developed a long-running tradition on set they called “cake wars.” The prank involved presenting a cast member with a birthday cake and having everyone sing “Happy Birthday” loudly, regardless of whether it was actually their birthday.
The tradition found its way to the wedding in Australia.
“At our wedding, me and Claudia are cutting the cake, The Boys’ side of the table just starts singing ‘Happy Birthday’ at the top of their lungs,” Quaid said. “It’s amazing. So, yeah, very grateful for those people.”
The Boys officially concluded after five seasons, with its finale airing on May 20, 2026. Several cast members attended the wedding, including Karl Urban, Colby Minifie, and Nathan Mitchell. Quaid’s fellow cast member Erin Moriarty, who played his on-screen love interest Annie/Starlight, also attended and later described the celebration as “wonderful” and “an amazing experience.”
The Mechanical Bull That Became the Unlikely Star of the Reception
Beyond the cultural moments and the cast prank, one detail stood out as perhaps the most unexpected addition to the wedding: a mechanical bull.
“It was great. So many people did it, I did it. I somehow didn’t split my pants. It was wonderful. If you want people’s energy to get out in a different way, mechanical bull for the wedding. I really recommend it,” Quaid said.
One of his favorite photos from the entire event reportedly features Doumit on the mechanical bull in her full wedding dress. Quaid described the image as “amazing” and the whole experience as “very surreal,” noting that to his knowledge, nobody was hurt throughout the evening.
