How to keep the paparazzi at bay when you’re famous and getting married? Do as Billy Joel and his 33-year-old girlfriend Alexis Roderick, who he’s been seeing since 2009, did on Saturday (7/4). Surprise everyone at your annual Fourth of July bash by unexpectedly tying the knot. Among those at his Long Island estate for the occasion was his daughter Alexa and ex-wife Christie Brinkley. The ceremony was performed by Joel’s friend Governor Andrew Cuomo of New York. The couple announced earlier this year that they were expecting a child to be born later this summer.
It was a big week for Joel who also set the record for most performances by a single artist (65) at New York City’s Madison Square Garden last Wednesday night (7/1).
