accreditation

Cape Town - Congrats to Jude Law (46), who’s officially a married man – again!

The British actor tied the knot with Phillipa Coan (32), in a low-key civil ceremony in London on Tuesday, Us Weekly reports.

The couple shunned a glamorous shindig for a surprise intimate ceremony at the Old Marylebone Town Hall, attended by only their closest friends and family.

In February the lovebirds announced they were engaged after four years of dating.

Jude looked rock-star cool in a navy velvet suit teamed with a hat and funky shades.

The couple arrived in a chauffeur-driven Range Rover at 11:4, according to the UK’s The Sun. After an hour they emerged from the town hall with their wedding rings on display and headed back to their car.

It appears the Captain Marvel star asked his eldest son, Rafferty – whose mother is Jude’s first wife, English actress Sadie Frost (53) – to be his best man. The 22-year-old model shared a story on Instagram showing him in a suit and standing on a roof smoking a cigarette.

The wedding comes as a surprise as previous reports stated the pair were planning a springtime wedding in France with many of their showbiz pals.

They first made their relationship public back in 2015 and Jude was smitten from the get-go, according to a source. "He’s serious about her. He loves how intelligent Pippa is and finds it refreshing to date a girl who’s not from his showbiz world," the source claimed. 

"He doesn’t want to mess it up."

In an interview with Modern Living, the two-time Oscar nominee spoke about their romance, saying: "She’s mine and no one else’s. I’m very, very happy. Our relationship is a private thing, and I think part of the fact it works so well is exactly because of that."

Jude has earned a bit of a reputation as a ladies’ man. A year after his six-year marriage to Sadie ended in 2003, he got engaged to his Alfie co-star Sienna Miller (now 37). But they broke things off two years later after he had an affair with his kids’ nanny Daisy Wright (then 24). Jude and Sienna rekindled their relationship again in 2009 but split up again in 2011, the Daily Mail reports.

Along with Rafferty, Jude has another son, Rudy (16), and a daughter, Iris (18), with Sadie while he has two more daughters from other relationships: Sophia (9), whose mother is American model Samantha Burke (33), and Ada (4), whose mother is British singer-songwriter Catherine Harding (27).
