The 50-year-old comedian and Michelle became engaged last year.

Following their betrothal, Michelle was diagnosed with desmoid tumours, a rare cancer-like disease.

"We married in private before [Michelle's] surgery, just the [two] of us (sic)," Rosie wrote on her blog. "When we r both well enough will have the wedding of r dreams surrounded by those we cherish."

Rosie and Michelle met in a Starbucks coffee shop in 2011 and made their public debut as a couple in September at Rosie Theatre Kids Gala in New York.

Rosie has four children with ex-wife Kelli Carpenter, whom she married in 2007 after several years of being together.
