Jason George and wife Vandana Khanna celebrated 25 years of wedded bliss with a romantic getaway to Italy. “She’s my Day One. I’ve known this woman since before I knew I wanted to be an actor.
I’ve known her over half my life. I’ve known her longer than I haven’t known her,” George, 52, exclusively tells Us Weekly about his longtime love. “But we’re still growing together.
Still love exploring together. And Italy keeps giving us new experiences. Wonder what our life will be like when we come back to Lake Garda and Cape of Senses in another 25 years.
” The Grey’s Anatomy star brought Khanna and their three children on a two-and-a-half-week trip across Italy. Their itinerary, which was prepared by Audley Travel , included stops in Rome, Florence, Cinque Terre, Lake Garda and Venice. George gave Us Weekly an exclusive look inside the family’s “incredible” trip.
While in Rome the family toured St Peter’s Basilica and the Sistine Chapel and made time to ride in Vespa sidecars. In Florence, they marveled at the Duomo, an iconic cathedral, and visited museums in the city. After spending time in the bustling Italian cities, they traveled south to Portovenere to take in the picturesque coastal town.
George, Khanna and their little ones took in the Ligurian Coast by boat. However, the most memorable stop for George and Khanna was in Northern Italy at Lake Garda, where they celebrated their anniversary in style with a private party. The event was held at the hotel, Cape of Senses , which is also a spa.

. Which gave me a perfectly meaningful gift to give her on our anniversary,” George told Us about the thoughtful gift. “The word mangal means auspicious and sutra means thread – together mangalsutra means an auspicious thread uniting the souls.
We didn’t renew our vows, or anything but it was a step in that direction.” Credit: Photo Credit: Alisha Rothman On the Water George took the wheel as he and his family explored the Italian coast. “I’ve always loved the water because I grew up in Virginia Beach,” George said.
“But there is nothing like being on the water in Italy. It’s a whole different vibe.” Credit: Photo Credit: Alisha Rothman Anniversary Celebration While on vacation, the pair held a bash with their closest friends and family in honor of their silver wedding anniversary.

.. one of the best meals ever.
And that’s saying something considering we had already eaten our way through Italy,” George told Us . “It’s not sentimentality for the occasion, either. All our guests couldn’t stop talking about the incredible food.
Some of the breads and desserts we’ve never seen anywhere else, before or since.” Credit: Photo Credit: Alisha Rothman A Special Reunion Several of George’s Grey’s Anatomy and Station 19 costars attended the anniversary bash.
