Imagine that: A Hollywood star and a rock icon get married and don't feel obligated to announce it, let alone live-stream it to the world. Thank you, Daryl Hannah and Neil Young.
We still don't know if longtime lovers Young, 72 (stalwart of such immortal bands as Buffalo Springfield and Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young), and Hannah, 57 (star of 1984 mermaid rom-com "Splash"), really are married now, but some of their friends and fans are nevertheless offering effusive congratulations on social medi...
As always, a London tabloid, The Mirror, was first to pick up on the scent of wedding bouquets, when Hannah posted a cryptic-yet-evocative picture on her Instagram page of a snowy white owl perched in what looks like an old, ramshackle barn.
“Someone’s watching over us…. love & only love,” Hannah captioned the picture.
The Mirror reported the duo got married Saturday in Atascadero, a city about halfway between San Francisco and Los Angeles and close to the California coast.
This followed an earlier ceremony aboard Young's yacht in the San Juan Islands, the archipelago off the northwest corner of the U.S., according to The Mirror.
Congratulations soon popped up in the comments section under her caption.
"Yaaaaaaaaaaay in every sense. And so sorry not to be there. Love you ❤️❤️ " posted CNN commentator Sally Kohn.
"You are the whisperer to all the animals ..birds and bees follow you and protect you what a beautiful time of love and magic," posted Rosanna Arquette.
"I’m glad you found each other...two hearts of Gold. ❤️❤️ " posted Judy Greenberg, a self-described fan of Young "and all his friends."
"Congratulations to you both. I hope you continue to find happiness," posted Robert Garriot.
Over on Facebook, a guitarist named Mark Miller posted congrats, too.
"Congratulations to Daryl Hannah and Neil Young on their wedding today. May they have a long and happy relationship," his post read.
"Congratulations Neil Young and Daryl Hannah!" tweeted ThrashersWheat, a Young fan.
It's not implausible that Young and Hannah would get married: The two have been lovers since at least 2014, when Young and his former wife, Pegi Young, split up after 36 years of marriage and two children.
By that point, People reported, the two had been dating for months and didn't really hide it.
Congratulations Neil Young and Daryl Hannah!
Hannah, who had roles in memorable movies such as "Steel Magnolias" and "Blade Runner," more recently has appeared in the Netflix series "Sense8." She's also moved on to making her own films.
A longtime political and environmental activist, she has never been married but was in relationships with another rock star, Jackson Browne, and with the late John F. Kennedy Jr.
In recent years, Hannah has made a splash by getting arrested in anti-pipeline protests in Texas and in Washington, and by being among the scores of women who have accused shamed movie mogul Harvey Weinstein of sexual abuse.
Earlier this year, Young and Hannah merged their professional and personal lives. Young starred in Netflix's "Paradox," a film written and directed by Hannah and described by reviewers as "a surreal, whimsical cowboy tale" in which Young heads a gang of outlaws looking for treasure in a post-apocalyptic wilderness.
By the way, USA TODAY reached out to reps for Young and Hannah; no response yet.

Anyone can suffer from mental health problems - but help is available.
It's World Mental Health Day this Wednesday, and this year's focus is on the problems faced by young people.
Good mental health is essential for good physical health and well being, as well as strong relationships.
Mental health problems can affect anyone at any time - they don’t discriminate between young and old.
Around 850,000 children and young people aged five to 16 are battling a mental health problem, and well over 500,000 people in England are suffering from dementia.
So what are the options if you, or a member of your family, has a mental health problem?
Many mental health and counselling services are available via the NHS, but you may need a referral from your GP to access them.
A few services - including those for drug or alcohol-related problems and some psychological therapy services - allow people to refer themselves.
If you’ve been feeling low for more than a few weeks, or anxiety or stress is affecting your daily life – perhaps stopping you going to work or socialising – you should make an appointment to see your GP.
After an initial assessment, your GP may offer advice and/or treatment and, if necessary, make a referral to either a therapy or specialist mental health service.
If your mental health difficulty is work-related, you could ask your employer what occupational health services are available to you.
If you are at college or university, mental health care may be available to you via student support services.
Children and young people may need help with a range of issues at different points in their lives, and parents may also need advice on how to deal with emotional or behavioural problems.
The NHS provides specialist services that work with children, young people and their parents and carers.
CAMHS (child and adolescent mental health services) teams are arranged regionally across the UK, and usually have their own website with details about access and referrals, as well as contact details.
VeriSign Inc. has been awarded a contract to manage a key component of a coming global distribution network that uses electronic product code (EPC) technology, according to a joint announcement by VeriSign and EPCglobal Inc., a non-profit organization.
The contract, for an undisclosed amount, assigns VeriSign the job of designing and operating the Object Naming Service (ONS) root directory, which will link RFID tags attached to shipping palates or individual products to stored data about the tagged items, said Sue Hutchinson, product manager at EPCglobal.
EPCGlobal and Verisign made the announcement at the National Retail Federation Annual Convention and Expo in New York City.
EPCs are unique numbers, akin to automobile license plates, that identify items in shipping cases and pallets. Using RFID technology, the EPC information can be broadcast to handheld and mounted RFID readers, which track the items as they move through an organization’s supply chain, from manufacturing floor to store sh...
The ONS will function like a government’s Department of Motor Vehicles for companies that use EPCs to track merchandise, relating the unique EPC number to information that describes the product, she said.
ONS is key to the commercialization of the EPC network, which was developed by a public-private initiative coordinated by the Auto-ID Center at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge, Mass. Without it, trading partners using EPC can only transmit product information directly using “point to point” commu...
In design, ONS is very similar to the DNS, which links requests for user-friendly domain names to numeric IP addresses, said Jon Brendsel, director of EPC Network Services at VeriSign.
That made VeriSign, which manages the DNS root servers for the .com and .net Internet domains, a natural candidate to run the ONS root server, Hutchinson said.
“They have a long term standing in the community, with the knowledge and capabilities to support ONS,” she said.
VeriSign beat out a number of other competitors to win control of the ONS root server, though EPCglobal would not comment on which or how many other organizations submitted proposals to manage ONS.
VeriSign will run ONS from six globally distributed resolution servers, akin to the servers it now uses for its managed DNS services, Brendsel said.
EPCglobal will pay VeriSign to build out and operate the ONS infrastructure. EPCglobal, in turn, will charge subscription fees from companies and organizations interested in using the EPC Network, Brendsel said.
As EPC deployments grow and ONS traffic increases, VeriSign will consider moving ONS to its high-availability Advanced Transaction Lookup and Signalling (ATLAS) system platform, which is used to manage the .com and .net root servers. VeriSign and EPCglobal estimate that the growing use of EPCs and RFID technology could...
VeriSign currently receives about 10 billion requests a day for the .com and .net domains, Brendsel said.
Growth will be driven, in part, by recent edicts from larger organizations such as the U.S. Department of Defense and retail giant Wal-Mart Stores Inc., that suppliers use the new technology, Brendsel said.
VeriSign is also planning a number of managed services, including a “managed ONS” service, that it will market to companies interested in outsourcing elements of their EPC operations, he said.
Real demand for such services may be years off, but will grow as EPCs slowly replace bar code technology, creating a new worldwide network of intelligent objects, Brendsel said.
“Think of DNS in 1993. This is going to be big,” he said.
ZURICH (REUTERS) - Swiss police said on Friday they were investigating an anonymous bomb threat at the Fifa congress in Zurich that led authorities to search the premises.
The threat was made by telephone to a Zurich-based newsroom on Friday morning, Zurich city police said, adding that no one had been evacuated from the congress.
However, participants in the world football congress, which paused for lunch 45 minutes earlier than expected, were initially denied re-entry into the auditorium while officers conducted a search, a witness said.
"A search was carried out. The premises have been cleared by the authorities," Fifa secretary-general Jerome Valcke told the congress after it resumed.
Congress participants and media representatives were let back into the auditorium following the search, with no additional security precautions.
THE Small and Medium Industries Association of Cambodia began exporting 1,668 tonnes of rice worth nearly US$600,000 to four European markets on Monday.
The exports fulfill $583,000 in previous agreements to sell 900 tonnes of rice to Lithuania, 480 tonnes to Poland, 240 tonnes to Russia, and 48 tonnes to Estonia, association secretary general Outh Renne said Monday.
The shipments will depart from Sihanoukville Autonomous Port from June 21 to 30.
“We hope to reach more agreements to export rice to European markets in the coming months,” he added.
Department of Trade Statistics and Information director Kong Putheara said that many Cambodian companies are already exporting small amounts of rice to the European Union.
This, he said, is due to tax preferences granted to least-developed countries (LDC) through the EU’s generalised system of preferences (GSP) legislation.
“We hope that Cambodian companies will be able to export more rice to European markets in the future because they are now updating their rice-processing technology in order to produce more international-quality rice,” Kong Putheara said.
Cambodian Small and Medium Industries Association says it exported 5,026 tonnes of rice in the first five months of the year.
Outh Renne said rice exports cannot presently be conducted on a larger scale because local firms do not have the capital to buy and store paddy at the level enjoyed by neighbouring countries.
“Our capital is [only] enough to buy at most 10,000 tonnes of rice to store because no loans are available for this,” he said.
Cambodia has seen investment totalling nearly $900 million to buy 3.1 million tonnes of paddy so far this year, according to a draft document for government policy in the sector.
Of this amount, $631 million was invested by foreign traders, and another $245 million was spent by local firms, the Options for Cambodia Rice Exports draft report said.
It also estimated that some $58 million is presently spent buying paddy for export.
In April, Prime Minister Hun Sen axed rice export licences in a bid to boost sales of the Kingdom’s “white gold”.
Previously, traders who wanted to sell more than 200 tonnes of the grain had to apply for a permit.
