Anya Taylor-Joy and her husband were “pretty spy-orientated” when they planned their secret wedding.

The ‘Queen’s Gambit’ actress revealed earlier this month that she and Malcolm McRae had tied the knot in an intimate ceremony in New Orleans in April 2022, not in Venice in October 2023 as believed, and she’s now admitted the occasion was made even “more special” because they kept it to themselves.

She told ‘Entertainment Tonight’: “We did our research, we were like pretty spy-orientated. But honestly, it just — it kind of made it all the more special ’cause it just felt like a secret that we got to keep to ourselves.”

The 27-year-old actress had a “magical” wedding day, with her and Malcolm exchanging vows just in front of their “two best friends”, but they were happy to celebrate their union with wider friends and family at a later date.

She said: “At the end of the day, it was about the two of us and so we ran away with our two best friends and had the most magical day possible.

“But I was also very grateful that a couple of months later we were able to celebrate with our family.”

Anya revealed her secret nuptials in an Instagram post celebrating her second wedding anniversary with the 29-year-old musician on 2 April.

She wrote: “Two years ago, on April Fools, I secretly married my best friend in New Orleans. The magic of that day is ingrained in every cell of my being, forever.

“Happy second ( first ) anniversary my love…you’re the coolest.”

The Golden Globe-winning star shared her message alongside a series of images from the big day and revealed through her photo credit that Cara Delevingne had been present at the nuptials.

Commenting on a snap of her heart cakes, she concluded her post by writing: “N.B yes, those are anatomically correct heart cakes. Yes, I am the vampire Lestat. [camera emoji] @caradelevingne + @sebastianfaena, beautifully embroidered with our love story by @dior.”

Malcolm also shared his own tribute on social media after the announcement was made.

He wrote: “I love you now and somehow I always have and somehow it will never end Happy two year anniversary (yesterday), beautiful.”

It had previously been reported that the couple had said their vows in a lavish ceremony in Venice, Italy and photos from that time show the ‘Dune: Part Two’ actress in the same Dior gown shared in her social media post but she had always referred to her husband as her “partner” until now.

WrestleMania XL has become the most-successful and highest-grossing event in WWE history.

The spectacular event at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia attracted a record-breaking crowd, breaking the previous gate record by 78 percent.

What’s more, TV viewership soared by as much as 41 percent compared to the previous year.

WrestleMania XL also became the most socially-viewed WrestleMania event of all time, attracting more than 660 million views over the course of the weekend.

The event featured the long-awaited return of Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson, and Cody Rhodes’ triumphant victory over Roman Reigns.

A host of big-name stars also attended WrestleMania XL at Lincoln Financial Field, including T-Pain, Vanessa Hudgens and Lilly Singh, while Snoop Dogg, Jason Kelce and IShowSpeed featured as part of the show.

Triple H, who is the chief content officer and head of creative for WWE, was thrilled with WrestleMania XL, and he’s already looking forward to next year’s edition.

Speaking to WWE’s Megan Morant, he shared: “I want to reinvent all this … not reinvent it, because there’s nothing wrong with it.

“It’s not broken, it’s not damaged; it’s the greatest form of entertainment in the world, right? But how do we all together take what we love so much and turn it into something even more?

“Going into WrestleMania next year, I think it’s going to feel like a whole new place. And that’s less than a year from now.”

Triple H also encouraged WWE fans to continue to engage with the company.

He told the fans: “Keep doing what you do. Tell us what you like, tell us what you don’t. We’re listening.

“For whatever period of time you tune in, whether it’s an hour, it’s two hours, it’s three hours, that you can just forget about life, forget about everything else going on, and live in this fantasy world of WWE, and enjoy every aspect of it. Cause I know I do.”
