Four days after their wedding, McRae and Taylor-Joy were at the premiere of The Northman in London
Actress Anya Taylor-Joy has confirmed she secretly got married to her partner Malcolm McRae in New Orleans in 2022.
The Queen’s Gambit star told fans she married her “best friend” at a ceremony on April Fools Day two years ago.
She shared pictures and videos from the vampire-themed ceremony, which featured “anatomically correct” cakes shaped like human hearts.
“Happy second (first) anniversary my love… you’re the coolest,” the actress wrote in the caption.

“N.B. yes, those are anatomically correct heart cakes,” she added, referring to a plate holding cakes shaped like real hearts in pools of apparently fake blood.
In the post, Taylor-Joy referred to herself as “the vampire Lestat” – a reference to the character from Anne Rice’s novel Interview with the Vampire, which is also set in New Orleans.
Model Cara Delevingne and photographer Sebastian Faena were among the guests, while Dior designed the wedding dress.
