He became a father for the first time at 56 \u2013 and now it appears actor Tom Hollander<\/a> has fully immersed himself in domestic life by marrying fianc\u00e9e Fran Hickman.<\/p>\n

They sparked rumours they had married in secret after they were pictured the morning after his 58th birthday this week.<\/p>\n

Tom \u2013 who at 5ft 4ins is nicknamed a ‘sex thimble’ \u2013 and Fran were wearing gold bands on their wedding ring fingers as they loaded a pram into their car outside Claridge’s in Mayfair.<\/p>\n

They held their two year-old son and kissed as they prepared to leave London after an apparent short break.<\/p>\n

Tom, who starred in The White Lotus<\/a> and sitcom Rev, and interior designer Fran \u2013 17 years his junior \u2013 have had a chequered romance since meeting two decades ago.<\/p>\n

After an initial engagement, they split in 2010 only to rekindle their romance in the pandemic when they had dinner at Mayfair restaurant Scott’s.\u00a0<\/p>\n

She then moved into his\u00a0\u00a32million West London flat and friends say she has ‘never left’.<\/p>\n

Two years ago they welcomed their son and Tom is believed to have proposed for a second time, before they swapped their Notting Hill home for Oxfordshire last year.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In his time apart from Fran, Tom dated Jemima Goldsmith, 51, ex-wife of former Pakistan prime minister Imran Khan.<\/p>\n

In the early 2000s he had a relationship with Daphne Guinness, 57, daughter of peer Jonathan Guinness.<\/p>\n

Tom gave a candid insight into his life in 2020 when an article he wrote for a Sunday newspaper went viral, just after he and Fran reunited.\u00a0<\/p>\n

He wrote: ‘I wake at 3 or 4am. Not because I’m like Mrs Thatcher but because I need to pee.\u00a0I pee in the darkness using my phone screen to illuminate the target.’<\/p>\n

Bafta-winning Tom is in eight-part thriller The Iris Affair on Sky Atlantic later this year.\u00a0A spokesman declined to comment on the couple’s marriage.<\/p>\n
