Henson continued, “Regina King, of course!” The two have known each other for years and sparked a viral meme in 2016 when King won an Emmy and Henson jumped up clapping in genuine support. The friendship is real, y’all!

If you think for a minute that Henson is a bridezilla, think again. She nonchalantly stated, “That’s only if they have time. I don’t want to pressure people into coming. It’s literally basically for my family and my friends.” The D.C. born star revealed, “We’ll probably do a reception for everybody else every else who couldn’t make it and LA for all my celebrity friends. The wedding, I kinda want to keep it stress-free.”
Don’t expect to see a lot of celebrities at Hensons’ wedding. She admits, “I don’t want my family freaking out because celebrities are there.” The down to earth star is aware of her not so down to earth life. “That day is about me and my future husband!” she states, then laughs.
We’re so excited for Henson! Congratulations!
