English actress Talulah Riley tied the knot with Love Actually actor Thomas Brodie-Sangster at St. George's Church in England on June 22. Talulah Riley was earlier married twice to the CEO of Tesla Motors and X owner Elon Musk.

The wedding photos show Talulah in a white dress with a lace-trimmed veil and a bouquet, holding hands with Thomas, who wore a white floral vest, beige cravat, navy blue coat, and gray pants. Guests threw flower petals as they left the church. After their vows, the couple rode in a horse-drawn carriage to their reception.


Talulah Riley's and Elon Musk first got married in 2010

Talulah Riley reportedly first met Elon Musk at a bar in London in 2008. However, at the time, Talulah hadn't heard about the Tesla owner. In his biography on Elon Musk, Elon Musk: Tesla, SpaceX and the Quest for a Fantastic Future, author Ashlee Vance quoted Talulah,

"I remember thinking that this guy probably didn't get to talk to young actresses a lot and that he seemed quite nervous. I decided to be really nice to him and give him a nice evening. Little did I know that he'd spoken to a lot of pretty girls in his life."

They first wed in 2010 in Dornoch Cathedral, UK, and announced their divorce in 2012. They later rekindled their romance and married again in 2013. However, Musk filed for divorce again in 2014, only to withdraw the petition and file it again in 2016.

While speaking to The Independent in July 2022, Talulah explained the reason behind remarrying,

"I suppose the reason to get married was just because it felt silly to be together unmarried after having been married. You know, it's like a habit. We were saying, 'This is my husband.' 'This is my wife.' 'Oh, wait, no, we're not that anymore. We better be that again."

Riley also mentioned she had a "very deep love and connection" with the Tesla CEO, and he's a "great friend."

"He looks out for me. We are in a happy place now, where we're good to each other, which is really nice. I have the utmost love for him."

Eight years after finalizing their divorce from Elon Musk, Talulah has married again. Last year, when Talulah and Thomas announced their engagement in July 2023, Musk commented on their post on X and wished them congratulations.
