“She spent the whole time walking down the aisle: ‘I love you dad, I love you dad, I love you dad,'” Lionel Richie recalled.
“Baby Girl got married. When I say that… it’s a great feeling, I must say, I’ve known Elliot since he was 9 years old. So I know the groom really well,” the “All Night Long” icon toldon Monday night. “There’s a thing down South we always say: ‘Who’s your people?’ Well, I know his people, so it really is a real wonder to see them in love and just as happy as I’ve ever seen my little girl and Elliot.”He continued, “It was a moment where, yes, I was letting her go, but I was also gaining a family.
As for the moment of walking his daughter down the aisle, Lionel says he got emotional. “She spent the whole time walking down the aisle: ‘I love you dad, I love you dad, I love you dad,’ and I go… ‘You’re killing me. You’re killing me.’ But that’s what a dad wants to hear, and I love Baby Girl so much, and the family was there to root her on.”
