British Formula One (F1) star Jenson Button who drives for McClaren has tied the knot with lingerie model Jessica Michibata after getting engaged last year.

The 34-year-old began dating the Argentine-Japanese model back in December 2008 and married at a lavish ceremony here this week, dailymail.co.uk reported Thursday.

"He told me he wants to get married - he said he is the marrying type. If Jenson wins the title we will celebrate by him getting down on one knee. He told me I am the one for him. I hope he means it," Michibata said way back in 2009.

The pair got engaged after Button popped the question on Valentine's Day 2014 with a ring reported to be worth 250,000 pounds.

 

Button was the 2009 F1 World Champion.
