Being married to a superstar celebrity whose fame and aura you could never hope to match must, admittedly, be hard.

Which might be what these two A-list exes has called time on their Hollywood hookups and instead found love with each other—both of them, after all, are the former better halfs of two of the world's biggest stars.

And even though their "I-dos" were of the hand-me-down variety, their star-studded wedding guest list sure wasn't. So who are these two?

It's Eric Benét and longtime girlfriend (now wife) Manuela Testolini! Benét, a singer known in his own right, is the infamous philandering ex-hubby of Halle Berry, while Testolini is the singer formerly known as Prince's wife.

Benét and Testolini, who announced their engagement eight months ago, swapped vows in Newport Beach Sunday in front of 150 guests, among them Samuel L. Jackson, producer David Foster, Shaun Robinson, who incidentally broke the news on Twitter, former Style hostess Niecy Nash and, curiously, Mayte Garcia, Prince's first ex-wife.

Unsurprisingly, neither's ex was in attendance: Berry and Benét's four-year union imploded amid news of his infidelity back in 2005, while Testolini's five-year marriage to Prince ended in 2006.

And how's this for doubling their pleasure: during the reception, the happy couple reportedly announced to guests that they were expecting their first child together, though reps have not yet confirmed that would-be joyous news.

Here's hoping the second time's the charm. Congrats, you two!
