Eddie Redmayne’s wife was more than 30 minutes late to their wedding.
The ‘Theory of Everything’ actor tied the knot with long-term girlfriend Hannah Bagshawe just before Christmas in Somerset, south west England, and the 33-year-old hunk was not surprised at all that the brunette beauty didn’t turn up on time because she is always behind schedule.
He said: "My wife … god it sounds so amazing just after you get married, even the terms sound new … she has never been on time for anything in her life.
"My job, or one of my jobs, was to find the venue and I made sure the place where we were having the reception was next to the chapel so when she didn’t turn up on time I could say, ‘Oi, you’re coming.’
"She was a good half-hour late. Her grandfather had to be held back from going and summoning her.
"Everyone else was really stressed but I was kind of relaxed knowing that she’d never been on time for pretty much anything in her life."
Eddie and Hannah – who have been together for three years – celebrated their nuptials with a honeymoon to The Alps, and while they were left disappointed that it didn’t snow, they still managed to have a great time gorging on fondue and red white.
Speaking on the ‘The Ellen DeGeneres Show’ on Wednesday night (07.01.15), he added: "We went to the Alps, which was such a beautiful idea, but unfortunately there was no snow.
"That was just an excuse to take long lunches, drink a lot of red wine and have a lot of fondue.
Talk show host Ellen then presented Eddie with a bottle of red wine and a fondue set with the name "Redmaynes" engraved on, much to the star’s delight.
He said: "Wow, that’s amazing. Thank you, Ellen."
