Morgan met Moore — before she was introduced to Caleb — in 2013, when she was helping recruit prospective students to Chapin School, where the actress’ daughter was considering transferring, according to The New York Times.
Caleb recalled his mom coming home that day and telling him, per the outlet, “I chatted to this girl, Ki. She was so great. She was so cool.”
Three years later, when Moore — who continues her ongoing partnership with Eli Lilly for its Brain Health Matters campaign — learned that Morgan and Caleb were both enrolled at Davidson College, the Oscar Award winner encouraged her son to make a connection. Caleb and Kibriyaá eventually began dating, and they got engaged in 2024.
When it comes to essentially having played matchmaker for Caleb and Morgan, Moore tells PEOPLE, “I mean, I won’t say no, not exactly, but yeah. I did know her before he knew her.”

Caleb and Morgan said “I do” at Brooklyn Borough Hall on Oct. 8, and they continued the celebrations with a ceremony and reception attended by about 140 guests at The Roundhouse in Beacon, N.Y., on Oct. 11.
Moore celebrated the couple on Instagram on Oct. 12, sharing a video of her son and Morgan walking down the aisle while being showered with flower petals. “This happened!!! We love love love you,” she wrote in the caption of her social media post.
The Still Alice star, who walked Caleb down the aisle with her husband, chronicled the couple’s nine-year relationship in a sweet speech at the wedding, and the mother-son duo danced to “Give Me Love” by George Harrison during the reception.
On Oct. 21, Morgan reflected on the wedding in an Instagram post, writing, “No words!!!!! Couldn’t be happier. Love my people. Love my husbanddddd @musicbycalebmoore best weekend of all time and I’ll cherish it forever and ever ❤️.”
In the comments section, Caleb sweetly responded, “MY WIFE MY WIFE MY WIFE.”
