Ben Barnes and Aubrey Cleland got married last weekend.
Ben Barnes and Aubrey Cleland have got married.
The couple - who got engaged in England 10 months ago after just over a year of dating - tied the knot at Chateau de Lis in Oregon last weekend, and the Chronicles of Narnia actor couldn't be more "proud" to be the Black Widow actress' husband.
Sharing a number of pictures from the wedding on Instagram, Ben wrote: "We got married! [white heart emoji]
"In a world of 8 billion people, it is extraordinary to find someone who feels like your person, someone who matches your sense of humour, curiosity and humanity — with whom you can be effortlessly yourself, feel understood, valued and loved for everything that you are.
"And, speaking for the first time as a proud husband: I married a woman of such rare grace, kindness and beauty, who somehow makes the world feel both bigger and more like home, who finds wonder, joy and laughter in things that might have passed me by, and who makes the ordinary feel momentous.
"We are so happy and so excited for everything that comes.(sic)"
According to the New York Post newspaper's Page Six, the couple exchanged vows in front of 150 guests last Saturday (10.10.26), and guests enjoyed “soulful and funny” speeches during the “dreamy” celebration.
Ben, 45, wore a black tuxedo for the occasion, while his 33-year-old bride donned a corset-style dress with spaghetti straps.
The couple are very private about their relationship and, although they got engaged on New Year's Eve (31.12.25) last year, it only emerged in August that they were planning to wed.
Page Six reported that Ben's proposal took place by the sea in the south west of England when the couple were on their first holiday together with both their families.
The couple began dating in the summer of 2024 and, at the end of that year, Aubrey appeared in the music video for her partner's song Nevermind.
The following month, the former American Idol contestant joined Ben on stage for a duet of his track One Minute More during his concert in Portland, Oregon, where she is originally from.
