Mike Tyson has married for a third time, two weeks after his 4-year-old daughter died in a tragic treadmill accident.
The owner of the La Bella Wedding Chapel at the Las Vegas Hilton hotel-casino told The Associated Press yesterday that the former heavyweight boxing champion and his bride, Lakiha Spicer, exchanged vows late Saturday in a short, private ceremony.
Chapel owner Shawn Absher says the couple wed about 10 pm local time after arriving at the hotel from the Clark County marriage bureau in a chapel-owned limousine.
County marriage records in Las Vegas show the 42-year-old Tyson and 32-year-old Spicer got a marriage license about 30 minutes before their ceremony.
Tyson's daughter Exodus suffocated after she either slipped or put her head in the loop of a cord hanging under a treadmill's console in her Phoenix home. Tyson's agent, Harlan Werner, told the AP that Spicer is not Exodus' mother.

Tyson and Spicer, a resident of suburban Henderson, asked for a simple ceremony with nothing special, Absher said. "They just wanted to say the vows and be married," he said. "It was very sincere." Tyson was previously married to actress Robin Givens in 1988 and Monica Turner in 1997.
