Sex and the City icon Kim Cattrall has stunned fans by sharing idyllic snaps from her 'dream' Maldives honeymoon, following her secret fourth marriage to audio engineer Russell Thomas. The actress, 69, tied the knot with Thomas, 54, in an under-the-radar ceremony at Chelsea Old Town Hall in London before jetting off to the luxurious One&Only Reethi Rah resort.
Secret London Nuptials and Stylish Celebration
The couple's wedding was a quiet and understated affair, reportedly attended by just 12 guests. The intimate ceremony focused on the strong relationship they have built over nearly a decade. For the occasion, Cattrall continued her reputation as a style maven, wearing a tasteful champagne-coloured Dior suit jacket and skirt, styled by her longtime collaborator and former Sex and the City costume designer, Patricia Field.
Her elegant ensemble was completed with delicate white lace Cornelia James gloves and a custom Philip Treacy hat decorated with lattice lace and a fabric flower. The pair were first introduced in 2016 at the BBC in London, when Cattrall was recording an essay for Woman's Hour. Their modern romance blossomed after Thomas direct-messaged her on Twitter (now X) following the broadcast.
A 'Dream Come True' Maldivian Escape
Following the London ceremony, the newlyweds escaped to the Maldives. Cattrall took to Instagram over the weekend to share sun-drenched photos from their paradise getaway. In one head-turning image, she lounged by the pool in a sleek black halterneck swimsuit, showcasing her incredible figure. Another serene snap captured her relaxing in a hammock at sunset, wearing a chic blue linen beach dress.
She captioned the posts, 'A dream come true spending an extraordinary vacation' and 'Sweet dreams', tagging the exclusive One&Only Reethi Rah resort. The holiday marks the celebratory start to their life as a married couple, after what Cattrall has described as a 'really gradual' and deep connection.
A Lasting Love Forged in Modern Times
In interviews over the years, Cattrall has gushed about her 'lovely' relationship with Thomas, praising their 'nice life' together. She highlighted that their bond was put to the test and strengthened during the coronavirus pandemic lockdowns. The couple now moves freely between homes in the US, Canada, and the UK.
Reflecting on what makes their partnership work, Cattrall told People in 2020, 'I’m very comfortable around him. He's a firecracker and he’s got a wicked sense of humour. And he's easy on the eyes!' This fourth marriage for the actress appears to be a testament to a love that was carefully cultivated over time, culminating in a secret London wedding and a dreamy Maldivian honeymoon.
