How does one say that he's married to someone in German? I have seen a text that says: "Julia ist mit Frank verheiratet" and I'm wondering if this is how German people express being married to someone; By using the preposition "mit". Is this sort of a fixed expression or is there another way to express it? Perhaps by using another preposition?

mit jmdm. verheiratet sein = to be married to sb. aber!..: jmdn. heiraten = to marry sb. Er ist mit ihr verheiratet.✅ Er hat sie geheiratet.✅ Er hat mit ihr geheiratet.🚫 That's how us Germans say it. Can't think of other common ways of saying someone is married to someone or that two people got married.
