The Oscar nominee married fiancé Sophie Hunter in front of close family and friends in Britain, before heading of to Los Angeles ahead of the Oscars!

Us Weekly have confirmed the pair said ‘I do’ on the Isle of Wight at the 12th century St. Peter and St. Paul Church.

The pair, who met while filming in 2009, went to extraordinary lengths to keep their wedding a secret.

Roads were cut off, the hotel staff where the reception was held were sworn to secrecy and a white van strategically pulled up at the moment the pair first emerged as husband and wife, blocking the view of anyone hoping to get a quick snap.
