Presidential brother Neil Bush, who divorced his wife of 23 years in a messy split last year, has married a woman who once volunteered for former first lady Barbara Bush.

Bush, 48, married Maria Andrews on Saturday in Houston in the mansion of longtime Bush family friends Rania and Jamal Daniel, the Houston Chronicle reported Sunday.

About 150 guests joined the newlyweds after a small family ceremony that included former President George H.W. Bush and Barbara Bush. President Bush and Florida Gov. Jeb Bush did not attend.

Maria Andrews' ex-husband, Robert Andrews, has filed a defamation lawsuit against Bush's ex-wife, Sharon, contending she spread a rumor that Neil Bush fathered 3-year-old Thomas Alexander Andrews.
