Crossword Genius

Admirer may be wed (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

married

'wed' is the definition.
(I know that wed can be written as married)

'admirer may be' is the wordplay.
'may be' is an anagram indicator.
'admirer' is an anagram of 'MARRIED'.

(Other definitions for married that I've seen before include "Closely linked" , "9 across (anag)" , "Spliced" , "Conjugal" , "United in match" .)
