Dog the Bounty Hunter’s daughter Lyssa Chapman has tied the knot with her girlfriend of six years.

Lyssa, 35, married Leiana Evensen in a glorious beach ceremony in Hawaii in early June.

She has taken her wife’s surname, adding it her own on Instagram as she shared the news.

‘Last week Lei and I boarded a boat at 7 in the morning with 7 of our closest family members and we dedicated our love and lives to one another,’ Lyssa, wrote on a post to the social media platform, alongside a slew of stunning oceanside snaps.

‘With our feet in the water, we connected ourselves to the power and vastness of the ocean. We were hugged by the majestic Ko’olau mountain range, that will continue hugging us as we live and spend the rest of our lives together at Makaalamihi,’ she added.

‘There, with Uncle David officiating, we stated our declarations of intent, said our vows and began life together OFFICIALLY as wife, and wife.’

The two brides were accompanied on the day by Lyssa’s daughters Abbie Mae, 20, and Madalynn Grace, 12, as well as Leiana’s parents Stacy and Carl Evensen.

Pictures showed Lyssa in a white gown with ruffle detail and Leiana in a white shirt and khaki shorts as they exchanged vows.

The couple also wore gorgeous Lei Po’o, the traditional Hawaiian flower crowns.

Following their exchange of vows, the pair held hands and ran in the sea together in matching white bikini tops and shorts.

Dog, real name Duane Chapman, was not present for the special day, but Lyssa told People Magazine: ‘He was of course on the phone with me all morning and during. We FaceTimed him a bunch. He was there in spirit and also electronically.’

Lyssa also added that it is ‘really, really hard for him to come back to Hawaii’, following the death of his fourth wife, Beth Chapman.

The couple had found fame together as bounty hunters on reality TV in their decade-long marriage before her death from cancer in 2019.

Lyssa is the daughter of Dog, 69, and his third wife Lyssa Rae Brittain.

Dog, who is now married to Francie Frane as of last September, is a father of 12.

His son Zebadiah Chapman died shortly after his birth in 1980, while one of Lyssa’s two full siblings, Barbara, died in 2006.

Dog, who got involved last year with the manhunt for Brian Laundrie, is reportedly set to get his own video game series – although no details have yet been released.
