Black’s publicist, Matthew Labov, declined to confirm or deny news of the marriage, which was first reported on People magazine’s Web site.

“They love each other very much. We’re thrilled,” Charlie Haden told People.

Black, 36, and Haden, 34, met when they were students at Crossroads School, a private high school in Santa Monica.
