X-Men Gold #30 was advertised as a comic featuring the marriage of Kitty Pryde and Colossus, but instead featured the surprise marriage of Gambit and Rogue. This led to a new comic book starring the duo, Mr. & Mrs. X. This followed on from the storyline of the five-issue miniseries Rogue & Gambit, also written by Thompson.

Gambit and Rogue decide to get married. Beast creates a power-dampening necklace to allow Rogue to kiss at the wedding ceremony and enjoy their honeymoon in space, which is cut short by a distress signal from Kitty Pryde. There was a distress signal from Cerise, who is transporting a package from the Imperial Guard. They are rescued by Deadpool and discover the egg is the progeny of Lilandra Neramani and Professor X. They continue to protect the offspring, which chooses to be called Xandra, from Technet and Warbird's Shi'ar rebellion. A large battle ensues between all four factions, but Xandra is able to create a psychic illusion that she died, but then goes under the care of Cerise. During this psychic explosion, Rogue realizes she can now absorb powers without physical contact. Gambit and Rogue try to enjoy their wedding reception, but are teleported to the Mojoverse. Rogue is comatose due to the fear gripping her with her new uncontrollable powers, so Spiral, who is enslaved by Mojo, helps her review her inner psyche in exchange for Gambit finding her missing soul shard. Rogue is called away from Captain Marvel, so Gambit then travels to meet with his father Jean-Luc, but is captured by Candra, the new head of the Assassin's Guild and Bella Donna, his ex-wife and chief of the Thieves' Guild. Candra betrays Bella Donna, and Rogue and Jean-Luc come to the rescue. The series concludes with Rogue and Gambit finally able to enjoy some time alone.
