Wedding bells are ringing for Joss Stone!
On Wednesday, the English singer, 36, revealed that she and partner Cody DaLuz tied the knot in a surprise ceremony in Nashville.
Stone discovered that during interview on Channel 5 news in Great Britain while promoting Time Traveler’s Wife a musical for which she wrote the music and lyrics.
In a conversation with series director Bill Buckhurst, Stone recalled how a wedding bouquet tossed at the end of the musical’s first act recently landed near her and was a sign to walk down the aisle.
“I’ll tell you something, magical, real, true,” Stone said. “You know when she throws the flowers at the end? They came to me and I almost reached for them to grab the flowers. Then she gets married and they do the whole thing and that’s the end of the first act.”

She continued, “They kind of fell here and there was an empty seat, the only empty seat in the whole place, and nobody went to pick them up, and I said, ‘Well, they were for me!’ So I picked them up and said, ‘Go!’ And they all said, ‘Yes!’ Anyway, I went home to Nashville and we got married last Thursday.”
“I thought it was a good sign,” Stone added. “That must be a good sign.”
“Wow, that’s real magic,” replied a shocked Buckhurst. “Congratulations!”
A representative for Stone did not immediately respond to PEOPLE’s request for comment.

Later on Wednesday, Stone and the American musician attended the premiere of her new musical at London’s Apollo Theatre, and as she posed for photos on the red carpet, two rings were visible on Stone’s left hand.
The couple are parents to daughter Violet, who turns 3 in January, and son Shackleton, who was born in October 2022.
Speaking exclusively to PEOPLE one month after giving birth to her baby boy, named after Antarctic explorer Ernest Shackleton, the “Super Duper Love” singer opened up about the instant bond her daughter has formed with her little brother.
“It’s really cool because Violet is so in love with him,” she said. “She wants to kiss him all the time. She screamed with excitement to meet him. I mean, she wanted to see the baby more than me.”

In an interview with a British newspaper Mirror Last year, Stone also opened up about her relationship with DaLuz and shared how she knew he was the one for her.
“Most conversations in my previous relationships for the last seven or eight years I started with, ‘Nice to meet you…I want seven kids,’ and then I would wait to see if she would laugh or run away!” Stone explained. “Cody, however, said, ‘All I want is an adopted Beagle and an adopted baby.’ I said, ‘My God, I love you.’ I knew he was the one. And I told him I wanted seven children, and he didn’t run a mile.”
“I would like seven children! I may only have two, but I like to aim high. Aim high and you might get somewhere close enough,” she added.
According to the publication, she and DaLuz met at an airport in Belize in 2020, just before the Covid-19 pandemic.
