July 21st 2024.
On a beautiful day in West Wales, Rufus Sewell and Vivian Benitez exchanged vows at the stunning Manorbier Castle. The couple, who had been together for three years, couldn't wait any longer to make their love official. Just seven months ago, they announced their engagement and now, they were happily posing together as husband and wife.
The castle, perched upon cliffs overlooking Manorbier Beach, was the perfect setting for their romantic day. Rufus, who paid homage to his Welsh roots, looked dashing in a cream suit and black tie while Vivian, 29 years his junior, was a vision in a white off-the-shoulder gown. They were surrounded by their loved ones, who Rufus warmly greeted at the entrance.
As they walked hand in hand through the stunning grounds, it was clear that their love was straight out of a rom-com. A photographer captured a sweet moment where the besotted couple gazed into each other's eyes, with Vivian tenderly placing a hand on Rufus' cheek. The sun shone down on their wedding venue, adding to the picture-perfect day.
Their guests enjoyed festivities in a fancy giant tee-pee, set amongst the lush greenery. Luckily, the weather cooperated and the outdoor activities went off without a hitch. It was a day filled with love, laughter, and celebration.
Rufus and Vivian's love story began five years ago, but they have kept their relationship largely private. Vivian jokingly shared on Instagram that their one year anniversary of being in love had taken her personality hostage. They have made a few red-carpet appearances together, including at the premieres of Rufus' films.
For Rufus, this is his third marriage. He was previously married to entrepreneur Yasmin Abdallah for a year in 1999 and then to director and producer Amy Gardner for two years from 2004 to 2006. They share a 22-year-old son, William Douglas Sewell. Rufus also has a 10-year-old daughter, Lola, with his ex-partner Ami Komai.
During their trip to Rome in December, Rufus popped the question to Vivian. She jokingly shared a photo on Instagram, saying "Till death do us part," alongside a first glimpse of her stunning engagement ring. The following day, she made light of their 29-year age gap, saying that she had turned 27 that morning.
Unfortunately, their engagement was bittersweet as Vivian's father was tragically diagnosed with a brain tumor just days before. He passed away on July 12, and Vivian shared the heartbreaking news on social media. She expressed her love for her father and the pain she was feeling from his loss.
Rufus and Vivian's love story is a beautiful one, filled with love, laughter, and a touch of Hollywood romance. Judi Dench, who directed Rufus in a play, set him up with an agent, kickstarting his acting career. He has since played many memorable roles, including Prince Andrew in Netflix hit Scoop, where he shocked viewers with a naked scene.
Their love is a reminder that age is just a number and true love knows no boundaries. Congratulations to the happy couple on their special day and may they have a lifetime of love and happiness ahead of them.
