Hollywood star Hugh Grant marries Swedish producer Anna Eberstein, see pics
Getting married for the first time, Hugh Grant tied the knot with his Swedish girlfriend Anna Eberstein in a low-key civil ceremony in London.
Hollywod star Hugh Grant, best known for playing bumbling Britons in romantic comedies like Four Weddings and a Funeral, has married Swedish television producer Anna Eberstein, British media reported on Friday. This is the first time Hugh Grant got married.
Grant, 57, who has played a string of commitment-phobic characters, married the 39-year-old producer at a low-key civil ceremony in London’s Chelsea district, photos of the pair printed in British newspapers showed.
The 57-year-old actor was wearing a dark blue suit, while Eberstein, 39, was dressed in a blue shirt and white skirt, and sported gold wedding band.
Eberstein is the mother of three of Grant’s young children. The Love, Actually star has two other children with former partner Tinglan Hong.
The photos showed Grant and Eberstein leaving the Chelsea register office in London on Friday and posing for pictures on the steps outside with a small group of family members. Grant wore a dark blue suit, while Eberstein was dressed in a blue shirt and white miniskirt and wearing a simple gold wedding band.
Grant’s publicist did not return a Reuters request for comment.
Grant, one of Britain’s best-known comic actors, is also famous for his own reluctance to marry. He split up in 2000 with his actress girlfriend Elizabeth Hurley after 13 years together.
“I’m not really a believer in marriage,” he told People magazine in 2015. “I’ve seen very few good examples, maybe five, in my life, but I think otherwise it’s a recipe for mutual misery.”
Grant, the star of twoBridget Jones comedies, also made headlines when he was arrested in Los Angeles in 1995 with a prostitute.
