A colossal congratulations is in order for legendary movie director Richard Curtis, after he "secretly tied the knot" with long-term girlfriend Emma Freud last month.The movie mogul - known for directing heart-warming hits like Love Actually and Notting Hill - certainly knows a thing or two about happily ever afters, so fans were left confused after there was previously no wedding in sight for the pair, despite being together for over three decades.

But speaking to press at Cheltenham Literature Festival in Gloucestershire this Saturday, Richard, 66, and Emma, 61, accidentally let slip that they had exchanged vows four weeks earlier.

Richard was also photographed at the event wearing a gold wedding ring on his finger which, according to guests, he incessantly fiddled with all day.

One attendee told The Sun: "Emma confessed she had finally got hitched while interviewing Richard E Grant. She said they'd been married for four weeks." They added it was clear that the cultural commentator wasn't meant to have said anything about their nuptials on the day, as she apparently put her finger to her lips, making a "funny noise which made everyone laugh" after mentioning the wedding.
