'Basking in Love': Dame Kristin Scott Thomas, 64, reveals she has secretly married her partner John Micklethwait in a VERY British wedding ceremony

As an ardent admirer of Dame Kristin Scott Thomas, I can’t help but feel a surge of delight upon learning about her secretive yet heartwarming wedding to John Micklethwait. The fact that this private, enigmatic woman has found love and stability in the midst of her whirlwind career is a testament to her resilience and the power of enduring connections.


Dame Kristin Scott Thomas has revealed that she has secretly wed her partner of five years.

In September, the actress known for her role in Four Weddings and a Funeral tied the knot with the editor-in-chief of Bloomberg, John Micklethwait.

The extremely private 64-year-old woman verified that their wedding ceremony occurred in her husband’s hometown of Rutland, and she also shared which classic British dish was served at the event.

She shared with the Ruthie’s Table 4 podcast that they enjoyed coronation chicken during their meal, and it was indeed a delightful treat.

In this podcast, Lady Ruth Rogers – the proprietor of River Cafe – warmly welcomes her friend, who recently tied the knot with John Mickelthwait, the editor. She mentioned that her friend is currently reveling in the love and happiness from their recent wedding only a few weeks ago.

Actress Kristin Scott Thomas, known for portraying MI5 spy Diana Taverner in Slow Horses, revealed that she received a heartfelt wedding present from her own sister.

She said: ‘She got all the family recipes that my mother had collected, from my great grandmother in Scotland, to my other grandmothers all over the place, on both sides of the family. She scanned them and made them into a book for me.’

In addition, she subtly acknowledged the private wedding that occurred over the summer between her fellow actor Jack Lowden and Saoirse Ronan, who is known for her role in Little Women.

Over the course of the past four years while working on Slow Horses, Dame Kristen remarked: ‘There’s so much living that goes into those four years – lives have been lost, new lives have begun, relationships have ended, others have started. This year has seen not one but two weddings; there was Jack’s and then there was mine.’

For quite some time, I’ve yearned for consistency, avoiding the whirlwind of traveling and finding solace in sleeping in one bed for over two weeks consecutively – pure joy! This kind of work provides just that. Over a span of four years, the same faces will be behind the camera.

In the past, she was wedded to the French ob-gyn, François Olivennes, from 1987 up until 2005. Together they have three offspring named Hannah, Joseph, and George.

As a devoted admirer, let me share this intriguing piece: I’m captivated by the fact that the man grilling the U.S. presidential contender, Donald Trump, is none other than John Micklethwait, aged 62, who holds the prestigious position of Editor-in-Chief at Bloomberg – a leading financial news agency.

Kirstin, known for maintaining privacy about her romantic affairs, had tactfully diverted any discussion regarding John during her interview with the Financial Times.

When questioned about their romantic relationship, Dame Kristin replied: “I won’t discuss him. Let’s focus on me instead.

Back in 2013, as a lifestyle connoisseur, I’d like to share an intriguing tidbit: Dame Kristin candidly offered a peek into her personal realm and humorously suggested that she might remain unattached for the long haul, reasoning that ‘most men would likely flee in terror’ upon catching a glimpse of her true self.

The actress shared with the Sunday Telegraph, “Maintaining relationships is extremely challenging given my kind of life. I seldom stay in one location for longer than a few weeks.

She also admitted that her personal life often suffers because of her career.

She mentioned that when she commits to a task, she needs to ensure it’s done well, so she must focus and put aside her personal affairs temporarily. She might manage a quick phone call during lunch, but anything else beyond that is too much for her to handle at the moment.

It seems like you’re trying to escape some complications at home by finding work elsewhere and assuming a different identity. In simpler terms, when things get tough at home, you seek solace in changing your environment and pretending to be someone new.
