After a blissful fortnight together, the couple took a romantic trip to Florida, where they got married.
She added: “There was a minister who we had come to the beach with a photographer, but that was it. When Trey first proposed the idea of getting married, I was pretty on board. I was like, ‘that’s crazy, but we did it. Our families were surprised. I hadn’t told my parents about Trey. So not only did I have to say I was married, I had to introduce them to my husband because they didn’t know him.”
The couple revealed their marriage news to their friends and followers via Snapchat and TikTok.

Follow-up videos show snaps of the newlyweds looking happy and cuddling on the beach.
“It was surprising in a shocking way, like what?! You did what?! But they’re happy now. Trey met my parents; I’ve met his parents. They’re super happy for us now, but at the time, they were just shocked and confused. I wouldn’t say they were shocked in a bad way, though.”
“Our families didn’t attend because it was so last minute – it was literally just the two of us,” Clara revealed.
She admitted she thought the idea of getting married there and then was “crazy” but went along with it.
Clara felt the decision to get married was based on a desire to make the relationship work out, as their earlier attempt had been cut short. So far, many people have since praised the couple online, but then a few negative comments emerged from trolls who objected to Clara and Trey being an interracial couple. One said: “Just wait till they get divorced because they only dated for two weeks.”
The most shocked people were Clara’s parents. They didn’t even know about Trey in the first place.
Notably, the pair had first met when Clara was 15 and Trey was 17.
Another wrote: “Let’s see how long it will last till you become a single baby momma to Jayden. A third stated: “Parents must be disappointed. Thankfully, the online critics affect them positively as the suitable number of views make them money. And the moment, the couple is adjusting to married life as they have moved in together.
The pair’s decision to get married was based on their desire to stay committed to each other.

On the other hand, it’s very much possible to obtain a marriage license and get married the same day in Florida, but of course, couples must have completed a pre-marriage course beforehand, or else there is a three-day wait. With this, both Clara and Trey have been explained when or if they took the course.
However, the couple is adjusting to married life as they have moved in together.
