Anya Taylor-Joy, the talented actress known for her roles in “The Queen’s Gambit” and “Dune: Part Two,” surprised fans by revealing that she secretly got married to her partner Malcolm McRae in New Orleans in 2022. The couple tied the knot in a vampire-themed ceremony on April Fools Day two years ago, complete with anatomically correct heart-shaped cakes.
In a recent Instagram post, Taylor-Joy shared pictures and videos from the unique wedding, expressing her love for McRae and calling him her “best friend.” The actress referred to herself as “the vampire Lestat” in the post, a nod to the character from Anne Rice’s novel “Interview with the Vampire.”
Among the guests at the wedding were model Cara Delevingne and photographer Sebastian Faena, with Dior designing Taylor-Joy’s wedding dress. The couple also hosted a larger wedding celebration for friends in Venice last October, leading to speculation about their marital status.
McRae, who is also an actor and musician, posted his own tribute to Taylor-Joy on social media, declaring his love for her and celebrating their two-year anniversary. This revelation comes as a surprise to many fans, as the couple had kept their marriage a secret until now.
Since her breakout role in “The Queen’s Gambit,” Taylor-Joy has continued to impress audiences with her performances in various films, including the upcoming “Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga.” The actress’s personal life has now become a topic of interest for fans eager to learn more about her private wedding ceremony and relationship with McRae.
