Kim Cattrall Weds Fiancé from BBC Woman’s Hour Encounter

Kim Cattrall has tied the knot with Russell Thomas, nearly ten years after their initial meeting at the BBC. Their union was celebrated in an intimate ceremony at Chelsea Old Town Hall in London, attended by just 12 family members and close friends. Cattrall shared a heartfelt photo of their kiss on Instagram, marking this significant moment in their lives.

Meeting at BBC Woman’s Hour

The couple’s story began in 2016 when Cattrall appeared on BBC Radio 4’s Woman’s Hour. During this appearance, she read diary entries reflecting on her struggles with insomnia. This was a notable time in her life, as it led to her pulling out of a play at London’s Royal Court.

Cattrall clarified that Russell Thomas has previously been misidentified as a sound engineer. She revealed, “He was an actor originally. He’s had an incredibly interesting life and really done it on his terms. He’s a bit of a rebel, which I love.”
