In an era where celebrities often find themselves under the constant glare of the public eye, few shine as brightly as the talented actress Anya Taylor-Joy. However, amidst the frenzy of attention surrounding her, Taylor-Joy managed to pull off a remarkable feat away from the spotlight. On April 2, 2024, she surprised her fans with a revelation that was both unexpected and heartwarming.
Taking to Instagram, Taylor-Joy shared a stunning snapshot of herself adorned in a resplendent white wedding gown, clutching a bouquet while a majestic bridal train cascaded behind her. In a caption that exuded both sincerity and playfulness, she confessed to tying the knot with actor and musician Malcolm McRae two years prior, in a clandestine ceremony held in New Orleans on April Fool’s Day. Far from being a mere jest, Taylor-Joy assured her followers that her marital status was indeed genuine.
Expressing the profound significance of the occasion, Taylor-Joy reminisced, “Two years ago, on April Fools, I secretly married my best friend in New Orleans. The magic of that day is ingrained in every cell of my being, forever.” She also extended warm wishes to her beloved husband, celebrating their second anniversary, or as she humorously noted, their first post-hard-launch anniversary, depending on interpretation. Her caption concluded with an endearing note, “You’re the coolest.”
Accompanying her announcement were two additional photographs and a video, providing glimpses into the joyous occasion. One video captured Taylor-Joy in her exquisite Dior-designed wedding attire, while another showcased her playful interaction with her bridal veil. Additionally, a photograph featuring the newlyweds alongside the acclaimed actress and photographer Cara Delevingne further immortalized the moment, with Delevingne sporting a dapper men’s suit.
Further adding to the allure of the affair, Taylor-Joy shared an image of heart-shaped cakes adorned with what appeared to be blood, playfully embracing the wedding’s New Orleans ambiance with a reference to the vampire Lestat.
In a touching display of mutual affection, Malcolm McRae also took to Instagram to express his love and commemorate the occasion. Sharing photos and videos from the ceremony, McRae declared, “I love you now, and somehow I always have, and somehow it will never end. Happy two-year anniversary (yesterday), beautiful.”
While many assumed that the couple’s lavish celebration in Venice in October 2023 marked their nuptials, the revelation of their earlier marriage in New Orleans added a new layer of intrigue. Amid rumors of engagement, Page Six had previously reported on their secret union in 2022, offering a glimpse into the couple’s private life that had remained hidden from the public eye until now.
