Glee's Jane Lynch Enjoying a Happy Honeymoon

Newlywed Jane Lynch, now enjoying a honeymoon in Europe with wife Lara Embry, is finding marriage to be just as life-changing as she'd hoped.

"We both feel as though we now belong to each other," the Glee actress, 49, said at Sunday's British Academy Television Awards in London. "I have a family and a daughter, and I'm thrilled!"

The star of the hit Fox show is still feeling the afterglow of her Memorial Day wedding in Sunderland, Mass., in a small ceremony with friends and family, including Embry's daughter Haden, 8. "It was so wonderful," Lynch says. "It was so great."

The honeymooners – who recently spoke of their immediate attraction upon meeting in May 2009 – are heading to glamorous Monte Carlo after their time in London. "We've been to the Tate Modern. My wife loves modern art, and I'm getting there!" Lynch says. "We went to the Millennium Bridge and the King's Road for some shopping. We're having a great time."

Talking shop for a moment, Lynch hinted that Susan Boyle could soon make a cameo on Glee, possibly in the guise of a lunch lady. "Ryan Murphy, who created the show, has said he would definitely love for that to happen," says Lynch. "Susan Boyle is really popular with the cast. To me, she is the person who, despite how she looks, got out there and sung beautifully. Not that she's ugly or anything!"

But then, nothing would surprise Lynch about Glee. "Anything that I can think of for myself as Sue Sylvester pales in comparison to what they end up giving me," she says. "So, I just free my mind and go, 'Whatever you want me to do!' "

A Jazzy Wedding for Glee's Jane Lynch

It looks like Jane Lynch has something to be extra Gleeful about.

Although the actress hasn't made an official announcement, the Blue Heron restaurant in Sunderland, Massachusetts, reports that Lynch, 49, married psychologist Lara Embry in a small ceremony on Memorial Day.

"There were no celebrities or recognizable faces there," restaurant co-owner Deborah Snow stated. "Lara’s daughter was there, along with close, close friends of the couple. It was small, warm, intimate and very sweet. You could feel the love and friendship amongst the group."

After Monday's ceremony, in which a friend of Lynch's thanked the State of Massachusetts for being welcoming to gay and lesbian couples, the newlyweds and their 19 guests enjoyed a reception featuring a four-piece jazz combo.

Hors d’oeuvres included oysters, lobster triangles, Japanese crab salad, seared scallop with apple reduction and artichoke fritters with lemon aioli. For the main course: beet salad, striped bass with lemon buerre blanc, truffle mushroom salad, pan-seared breast of duck with duck confit, and herb salad.

The reception concluded around 10 p.m. with cheese plates and a house-made cake filled with chocolate mousse, vanilla butter cream and fresh strawberries.

Lynch and Embry have been engaged since November. Showing a soft spot not often exhibited by her character Sue Sylvester, Lynch gushed earlier this year: "It's just the greatest thrill in the world to find somebody that you want to be with every day."
