As “Downton Abbey” comes to a close, two of its stars are opening up about their life together.
Laura Carmichael and Michael C. Fox — who play characters Lady Edith and Andrew Parker on the period drama — revealed they were married. The couple confirmed the news during “Downton Abbey Celebrates The Grand Finale,” an NBC special promoting the franchise’s final feature film that premiered Wednesday.
“I owe a lot to this show,” Fox, 36, said. “I think so much of my life has been shaped around this show.”
The couple, who reportedly welcomed a son in 2021, met on the set of the hit series in 2015 and sparked romance rumors a year later.
His 39-year-old spouse smiled as their co-star Leslie Nicole asked: “What if someone said you’re actually going to find your wife and have a child? Life-changing stuff.”
“It’s incredible,” Fox added as Carmichael looked on.
Both actors reprise their roles in the third and final big screen adaptation of PBS’s award-winning historical drama series, “Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale,” which hit theaters on Friday.
Since its premiere in 2011, the Julian Fellowes-created story — revolving around the lives of an aristocratic family and their domestic servants in the post-Edwardian era — has become a cultural touchstone and captivated TV viewers.
