Marcus Mumford Adorably Swept Carey Mulligan off Her Feet at 2024 Oscars
Carey Mulligan and Marcus Mumford couldn’t be a more perfect match.
Us Weekly confirmed in April 2012 that the couple tied the knot in the English countryside, just over one year after their budding relationship made headlines. They were first linked in early 2011 when they were caught looking cozy together at two different concerts — but their love story reportedly began much earlier than that.
While the pair haven’t addressed the widely spread tale, legend has it the “Little Lion Man” crooner and Maestro actress met when they attended the same Christian church camp as kids and stayed in touch as pen pals before reconnecting as adults.
“To have a love letter from someone, to hold it in your hand and know that you can keep it for your whole life … well, that’s an amazing thing,” Mulligan told The Telegraph in 2013, gushing over the “lost art form” of the handwritten love letter.

Though they’ve made many public appearances together, the British couple prefers to keep their private life out of the spotlight. “Marcus is the only thing that’s mine that I can keep totally away, so I try to,” Mulligan told Vogue in April 2015, five months before welcoming daughter Evelyn. (The duo also share son Wilfred, who arrived in August 2017.)
