I do … again!
After 11 yearsof marriage,Howard Sternand Beth Stern got remarried in Los Angeles in a surprise wedding that aired on Monday’s episode ofThe Ellen DeGeneres Show.
The SiriusXM host, 65, and the animal rights activist, 47, agreed to tie the knot again last week when Stern re-proposed to Beth onJimmy Kimmel Live!
“Beth and I areBachelorNation!” Howard cheered at the surprise. “[It’s] our favorite show, I’m not messing around!”
From there, the couple exchanged “I dos” again.
“I vow if I marry you, I promise for the rest of my life to watchThe Bachelorwith you in bed every single night,” Howard said. “AndBachelor in Paradise.”
The pair then sealed the deal with a kiss. Per Jewish tradition, Howard also broke a glass, crushing it with his right foot.

Howard had been asking Beth to walk down the aisle again for years to no avail, with his wife calling the vow renewal bad luck.
“I go on Jimmy’s show and I thought it would be funny if I propose to show him how she will turn me down,” Howard recalled. “I got on one knee, I said, ‘Darling, I love you.’ I thought it’d be great, she’d get big laughs. And she said yes. I don’t know why, it ruined the bit!”
Beth later explained that she was unaware what role she was supposed to be playing that day.
“I didn’t know I was part of a bit where I was supposed to say no,” she said onEllen. “I’m learning that for the first time.”

She then gushed about Howard, calling him “so romantic.”
“He is the most romantic man,” Beth said. “Every day he tells me how beautiful I am. He knows I’m very insecure. And every day, he tells me he wants to remarry me.”
The longtime radio host had equally sweet things to say about Beth.
“I really do love this woman so much. She really has my back, it’s a great marriage, I’m happy,” he said. “I want to remarry my wife. I’ll do it every day.”
Last month, Bethopened up in a candid Instagram post, revealing that she recently had abreast cancerscare and following her experience, she urged her female followers to getyearly mammograms.
Earlier this year, she said she showed up for her annual mammogram and doctors discovered a half-inch growth on her breast, which “needed to be rechecked in 6 months.”
“I was a nervous wreck for the past 6 months,” Bethwrote in the September post, alongside a photo of her smiling in a bikini. “A very dear friend of mine recently had a double mastectomy so this was extra sensitive.”
When she showed up to her appointment six months later, she learned that the growth hadn’t gotten any bigger.
“Today was my recheck and it didn’t increase in size,” she explained. “Mine, fortunately, hasn’t grown and is just a Fibroadenoma.”
“I just want to tell all of you amazing women out there..get your yearly mammograms,” Beth, whose Instagram page is mainlydevoted to her foster cats, continued. “Not a cute kitten post but a little dose of reality and i think you are all important and worthy and want you to be here as long as you can… love you all.”
