But The Daily Beast and other media outlets have confirmed through a King County, Washington, record searchthat the two are already married—they obtained their marriage certificate on Dec. 7, 2018.

The Seattle native, who was convicted and ultimately acquitted of the 2007 murder of her British roommate Meredith Kercher in Perugia, Italy, had claimed the couple were getting married in February 2020.

There is nothing wrong with being married at city hall and then later celebrating in a church or with a fabulous party, except when the married couple are trying to raise money by implying the wedding is yet to happen.

The site even has a countdown clock to the wedding date.

They do not refer to the event as a just a party or celebration, but to their wedding.

Knox tweeted a link to the fundraising site to her 40,000 followers.
