Rufus Hound has married former EastEnders star Sally Hodgkiss.
The 47-year-old actor and comedian - who is best known for appearing in Celebrity Juice, Trollied and Dancing on Ice - tied the knot with Sally in a woodland ceremony.
Rufus took to Bluesky to share a picture of a wedding countdown calendar, which had been changed to state "two days since our big day".
He wrote in the caption: "Everyone have a good weekend?"
In 2023, Rufus revealed he had found love with former EastEnders star Sally, who portrayed Walford East waitress Steph Bailey in 2019.
The comedian confirmed he had moved on from his ex-wife Beth Johnson - with whom he shares son Alby and daughter Hilda, and who he split from in 2020 after 13 years of marriage.
Rufus and Sally attended Glastonbury Festival together in 2023, and he took to social media to describe her as the "absolute best person".
He posted on Twitter: "No-one has ever loved me as much as this woman and the best bit is she's all things wonderful.
"It's a blessing to be her boyfriend and she is my absolute best person that I didn't make.
"She makes everything fun and good all the time. She's sunshine and snogging and smiling all at once. It was the BEST time."
Sally - who was performing stand-up comedy at Glastonbury - met Rufus when they both starred in the Norwich Theatre 2022 pantomime Jack and the Beanstalk and she reciprocated her boyfriend's sentiment in her own social media posts.
Writing on Twitter, she said: "Well @glastonbury 2023 was UNREAL!
"P.s @RufusHound is the best person I ever met. So there’s that as well."
When the former Dancing On Ice competitor announced the "sad" news of the end of his marriage in 2020, he assured his fans that he "will always remain best friends” with his ex Beth
Rufus said: "In April, Beth and I made the sad decision to end our marriage.
"We will always have much love and respect for each other. Even though we are separated we will always remain best friends."
