Sex and the City icon Kim Cattrall, 69, gets married in intimate London wedding

Sex and the City legend Kim Cattrall has married – for the fourth time – in a low-key London ceremony. The lucky man is audio engineer Russell Thomas, 54, and the loved-up pair said their vows on Thursday 4 December, according to People.

It’s believed the couple first met in 2016 at the BBC in London, where Kim was appearing on an episode of Woman’s Hour to record an essay about insomnia.

The pair married at Chelsea Old Town Hall in an intimate, elegant ceremony, described as ‘quiet’ and understated’, thought to have had just 12 guests. It reportedly focused on the strong bond the couple have built up over the past almost-decade, and their relationships with family and friends.

In pictures of the intimate ceremony, Kim – who has roots in Liverpool – showed she is ever the style queen, wearing a chic, simple Dior suit styled by her longtime collaborator Patricia Field, Sex And The City’s former costume designer.

Kim’s Dior suit featured a champagne-colored jacket and an opaque skirt with a layer of pleated dotted point d’esprit tulle draped over it.

She accessorised the look with white lace Cornelia James gloves and a custom hat made by Irish hat designer-to-the-stars Philip Treacy, according to People, decorated with white lattice lace and a fabric flower.

The Sex and the City sequel series Just Like That – which it was announced recently had come to an end, did not involve Kim or Patricia, but the latter returned to style the star for a brief cameo in season two.

For eagle-eyed fans, they may have spotted the signs before the big day that Kim was preparing to say I Do again, as she seemed to flash her wedding band on the red carpet on Monday, as she attended the 2025 Fashion Awards at London’s Royal Albert Hall with Thomas.

In 2023, Kim revealed in an interview that she was ‘very grateful’ for her ‘lovely’ relationship with Thomas ad gushed about their ‘nice life’, revealing that she and Thomas remained in contact after her BBC Radio 4 appearance, and he followed her on X.

Back in 2018 she confessed, ‘He direct messaged me. ‘It was very, very modern [and] it’s just been very easy.’ The sound engineer then made a visit to see her in Vancouver, Canada to spend some quality time together – which the star says is when things started to get serious.

‘It was very brave of him because we didn’t really know each other other than having a few meals together. But he came and we got along great,’ she said in 2020. ‘And we’ve been together ever since!’

Cattrall explained that, where earlier relationships had been more ‘instinctual,’ her relationship with Thomas had a ‘really gradual’ progression. ‘Our lives were so separate and so different,’ Cattrall said. ‘It’s a nice life and I’m very grateful for that.’

Kim added that she and Thomas had a ‘true test’ of their relationship when the coronavirus pandemic saw them ‘locked’ them together, but now their lifestyle sees them move between the US, Canada and the UK.

‘I’m very comfortable around him,’ she gushed to People in 2020. ‘He’s a firecracker and he’s got a wicked sense of humor. And he’s easy on the eyes!’

The first episode of the ground-breaking Sex and the City aired 25 years ago, but characters like Kim’s straight-talking, sex-mad Samantha Jones remained emblazoned on viewers’ hearts.

Sadly, so does the furious feud which exploded between her and Sarah Jessica Parker, who played writer Carrie Bradshaw.

Inseparable on-screen, since the early days of the Manhattan-based show, there were rumours of infighting between the pair and they continue to this day.

Meghan Markle blasted for her ‘hypocrisy’ as her father is rushed to hospital

In today’s newspaper column, Meghan Markle is criticized for her “hypocrisy,” whose estranged father Thomas Markle senior has undergone hospital surgery.

Meghan Markle has been slammed for the treatment of her father after he was rushed to hospital.

Thomas Markle senior, 81, is now “stable” albeit still in intensive care following a three-hour operation. He was dashed to hospital after an emergency at home on the island of Cebu, more than 7,000 miles away from Meghan Markle and Prince Harry in Montecito, California.

Despite Thomas’ health concerns, it is believed that the Duchess of Sussex has not spoken to him. Although Meghan, 44, has received harsh criticism in one newspaper opinion column today, there are still divided opinions regarding this. The Sussexes have treated Mr. Markle like an embarrassing sack of family trash that has been exiled, banished, cancelled, and snubbed for seven long years, according to Jan Moir, an experienced columnist.

She has shown no compassion over the past few years, not even one drop, as her father has experienced a series of health issues, including a massive stroke that occurred in 2022 and two heart attacks that occurred on the eve of her wedding.

And, in her lengthy piece, Ms Moir noted Meghan’s “hypocrisy” — an alleged trait for which she and Harry have faced scrutiny before on other issues, such as climate change and most recently her insistence on being introduced by her royal title that she previously wanted to avoid.

Writing for the Daily Mail, the journalist added: “She makes treats and cosy memories for loved ones while simpering about warmth, love, friendship and family.

“On the Netflix set, an eager crew of celebrities and ‘new friends’ – ie total strangers – have gathered to grease up the old Duch as if she were a fattened goose and the onscreen mood is very come-let-us-adore-her, oh Christ, the lard… It’s not the hypocrisy that gets me, it is the pity of it all.”

Thomas Sr and Meghan’s relationship broke down and the pair became estranged in 2018, after Meghan married Prince Harry. The pensioner has been living in a £500-a-month high-rise flat in the island of Cebu since earlier this year.

Katie Price must stick to strict condition in order to keep custody of her children

After their bitter divorce in 2009, Katie Price and Peter Andre have two children together. Harvey and Katie also have three other children.

Katie Price is delighted to have her children living with her again at her new rented home — but she must stick to a tough condition.

Friends reportedly told the TV personality to halt sharing images and videos of Harvey, Junior, Princess, Jett, and Bunny in order to keep them in her care. However, according to Katie, 47, “finds it hard” to stop doing this because she has done it frequently throughout their lives.

But the former model is ready to spend Christmas with her youngest children, having had an empty nest for some time. One friend said: “Katie is thrilled to have them back living with her full-time. But she has made a vow that she will not be sharing any pictures of them online. She wants to do the best she can for them and if that means keeping their home life private then so be it.”

Katie was not invited to Princess’ 18th birthday party in the summer, which reopened old wounds between the former model and the teen’s dad, Peter Andre. Katie also shares Junior with singer Peter, who she divorced in 2009 after a four-year marriage.

The TV personality, who is based in Brighton, East Sussex, has also made a promise to refrain from using social media. She continued, “She had been told by those around her that they needed some privacy, and that’s what Katie finds difficult. She had been told by those around her.”

She makes sure her youngest children are happy and at ease by making sure they are both content and content during Christmas. They’ve had a difficult few years.

She’s pleased that she’s back after these awkward times. After all, they spent a lot of their early years on magazine covers, so it will be a little unsettling to not share them online.

While Katie’s eldest son Harvey, 23, who is severely disabled, spends most of his time in a care home, it is reported that Princess and Junior, 20, both moved in with their father Peter a few years ago.

The Daily Mail says that, until the arrest of Katie’s ex-husband Kieran Hayler, 38, Katie had limited access to her youngest children after she breached a restraining order taken out against her by his fiancée Michelle Penticost.

After kicking abuse at her and another woman in a school playground, Katie, who gained notoriety in the late 1990s for her glamour modeling work, was prohibited from contacting Ms. Penticost directly or indirectly in June 2019.
