Freddie Highmore, known for his character as surgeon Shaun Murphy in the hit series ‘The Good Doctor’, made a surprising revelation in his last interview on the Jimmy Kimmel show, as he confessed that he secretly married.
This news is really unexpected, since the 29-year-old actor was not known to have any romantic relationship, as he has preferred to keep his private life very far from the spotlight, so much so that he does not even have a profile on any social network.
While Highmore was talking about his professional triumphs, Jimmy Kimmel noticed that his guest was wearing a wedding ring. “That’s a wedding ring, right?” he asked, intrigued, to which Freddie Highmore had no choice but to confess that he already has passed through the altar and that he did it without anyone noticing.
“Yes, it’s a wedding ring. Yes, I got married. It’s funny since I’ve been wearing this ring, people ask me if I’m married, so I thought I should clarify,” the 29-year-old celebrity joked.
Freddie Highmore did not give many details about the woman who has become his wife except that she “is wonderful” and that she is of British origin. Furthermore, he assured that he is very happy at this moment in his life.
He even joked about some aspects of marriage that he is still not used to, including referring to himself as “married” or calling his wife “wife,” because he assures that he “sounds very possessive”.
“We don’t really use them yet, but we just point to the rings and say, ‘Look, draw your own conclusions,'” the actor explained.
“Does she have permission to say: my husband?” Jimmy Kimmel told him, to which the interpreter responded by laughing and clarifying that that sounds “somewhat better.” “You’re going to have to relax,” the journalist suggested. “It’s still early days, thanks for the advice,” concluded the British actor.
At the moment, the identity of Freddie Highmore’s wife is a mystery to be solved. Let us remember that he has not been known to have any formal romantic relationship, despite the fact that he has been surrounded by cameras for many years, as he rose to fame when he was just a child thanks to his leading role in the film ‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory’, alongside Johnny Depp. .
Although Freddie Highmore has never made a relationship public, he has been involved in rumors that he was romantically linked with actresses such as Dakota Fanning, Sarah Bolger or Abigail Breslin, but they were never confirmed.
