Anya Taylor-Joy and Malcolm McRae have tied the knot. Congratulations!
According to the Daily Mail, which received images of the wedding, the Queen’s Gambit actress, who is 27 years old, and the singer, who is 29 years old, sealed the knot over the weekend in Venice, which is located in Italy.
Reportedly, the ceremony took place at the famous Palazzo Pisani Moretta, after which the guests at the reception celebrated with the newlyweds, their friends, and their family. Photos taken during the event show Taylor-Joy wearing a long veil and a couture Dior gown that is embellished with floral motifs and a bird. She is also seen standing on a balcony while wearing the ensemble.
Famous people who are friends of the bride, such as Miles Teller, Julia Garner, Cara Delevingne, Nicolas Hoult, and Evan Ross, came to the weekend event to celebrate the couple’s upcoming wedding.
After being married, the newlyweds are said to have celebrated on Sunday by having brunch on the terrace of the St. Regis, which has a view of the Grand Canal. This information was provided to PEOPLE by a source. “She was a vision,” the source of Taylor-Joy says more about her.
According to a story from The Daily Mail, the couple was reportedly seen earlier this year visiting wedding locations in Italy.
At the premiere of Queen’s Gambit in March 2021, Taylor-Joy was introduced to McRae for the first time. Two days after they first made contact with one another, the musician penned an original song for the actress and posted videos of himself performing it on Instagram.
“I wrote this song for Anya two days after meeting her,” he revealed in the description of the post at the time. “I hope she likes it.” “The song’s title is ‘Really Want to See You Again,'” the waiter said.
McRae sung in the video, “I know that I’m high now, but I’ve gotta get this out,” and she did so while high. “I believe that we are similar in ways that I can’t fully articulate correctly, but with some time I may or might be able to do so. If only we ever found ourselves in the same location. I want what is right, but I also want without warning right now, and I believe that what we both want is something similar.
During the following month, Taylor-Joy discussed her “partner” in an interview with Elle. She responded, “My partner has just returned from work, and he’s moving around all of his equipment, so this was the safe spot.”
One year after they had their first encounter, the pair made one of their first public appearances together at the CAA Pre-Oscar Party in West Hollywood, California. This event took place in 2017. Following the conclusion of the awards show, McRae and Taylor-Joy made their way to the Vanity Fair Oscar Party. McRae subsequently posted a picture on Instagram of himself and Taylor-Joy dressed up for the special occasion.
He captioned the photo of Emma Stone with the words, “Don’t know why this Merry or Pippin lookin guy on the left is mean mugging, but I’m f—— proud of this girl,” referring to the actor who plays Emma.
This past April, the actress from The Northman spoke up to British Vogue about how at ease she is in McRae’s company. “I’ve finally found someone who will happily sit in silence with me reading,” she said to the magazine at one point.
The other day, I was talking to my business colleague, and I told him that you are my pastime. Reading is something that I consider to be an obligation on my part. She went on to say, “He enjoyed it because he can relate to it.” “We’re basically 80 years old and 7 at the same time, and it works really well,” said one of the members of the group.
According to an interview that she gave to British Vogue, Taylor-Joy has said that she would rather be in a relationship than participate in the dating scene. She said, “I was not a good dater and I’m quite glad that I’m not any longer.” When I hear tales of my friends’ experiences, I think to myself, ‘God, I would be terrible at that.’
