Niecy Nash On Celebrating First Holiday With Her Wife

The ‘Claws’ star married Jessica Betts in August.

This holiday season will be Niecey Nash’s first time celebrating Christmas with her wife, singer-songwriter Jessica Betts. And while she’s taking all the necessary precautions due to COVID-19, Nash is using her new partnership with HP Printables to make the holidays extra special.

The 52-year-old told Too Fab, "The one thing that I found that brought me so much joy this holiday season is HP Printables. Right now, they're offering free crafts and activities. The thing I love about it most is that I was able to submit my first holiday in my new marriage by making a custom holiday card and it was so much fun."

In September, Niecey told PEOPLE that she and Jessica Betts hosted a rustic-themed wedding in front of their closest friends and family at their home in Ventura County, California. They married August 29.

She continued, "I haven't been out on the red carpet, to galas or parties so I was able to put on a beautiful gown and a Spank. And I laid down on my couch and curated a very fun card and it was something I could do with my whole family So, I was like, guys I need to be a part of letting people know about this."

Nash also added, "It’s fun because you can use your creativity. You can curate something you can then send to your family and friends since some of us still have to be socially distanced from those we love. It provides connective tissue, and also if the parents need a break it's something the kids can easily do by themselves for a few minutes."

The Claws actress said her celebration will be a small gathering that will include Betts, as well as her children Dominic, Donielle and Dia, from her marriage to Dan Nash.

Speaking of Claws, the show is in its final season and Nash is currently filming. 

“What is interesting is we're working under COVID guidelines now. So, it's a little bit different on how we are able to see one another and experience one another,” she explained. 

“Like people you could hold in your arms and give a hug to, you have to say hello to from across the room. We're making the best of it though."
