Who Is Ryan Dorsey? Get to Know Naya Rivera's New Husband

We were all a little shocked to find out that Glee star Naya Rivera secretly tied the knot with actor Ryan Dorsey in Mexico last weekend. Not only did we have no idea he and Naya were a couple — they have apparently been friends for four years and hooked up a few months ago — but it was also kind of crazy to find out that the pair reportedly got married on the same date that Naya had planned to wed her ex-fiancé, rapper Big Sean.

After their nuptials, Naya and Ryan gave a statement to People, saying, "We feel truly blessed to be joined as husband and wife. Our special day was fated and everything we could have ever asked for." So, just who is Ryan Dorsey? Here's what we know about him so far. Source: Getty / Barry King
