Mystery surrounds Cate Blanchett’s marriage as she hasn’t been spotted with her husband for months, takes off her wedding ring and sells a home in Melbourne

Cate Blanchett has left fans confused after heading out to the 2024 BAFTA Film Awards without a wedding ring on Sunday night.

The Australian actress, 54, who has been married to playwright Andrew Upton, 58, since 1997, stunned at a British film industry event in a maroon Louis Vuitton dress and statement necklace combo.

But instead of wearing her white gold and diamond wedding sparkler, the Blue Jasmine star wore a large emerald green cocktail ring. Her husband did not attend the event.

Oddly enough, Cate was also spotted ring-free earlier this month, when she attended an event in New York at the Museum of Modern Art on February 6.

Joined by Sophie’s Choice co-star Ethan Hawke, Cate oozed sophistication in a gray gradient-print pantsuit and lariat necklace.

Cate made no attempt to hide her bare wedding finger as she smiled for photos outside the exclusive event.

In October 2023, Cate was seen again without her wedding ring as she sat front row at Stella McCartney’s runway show during Paris Fashion Week.

Instead, the actor wore a set of elegant gold bands on her wedding finger.

Speak with women’s Day magazine on Monday, a source close to the couple said Cate’s missing ring has raised alarm bells about the status of her marriage.

“Seeing Cate without her ring has sent shockwaves through their friends. For the first time, they are wondering if the situation is not so rosy,” the insider claimed.

There has been a question mark hanging over Cate and Andrew’s marriage for some time now.

The couple have also not been seen on a date since August, when they were photographed enjoying a sun-soaked holiday in Ibiza.

They also raised eyebrows earlier this month after putting their sprawling mansion in Prahran, Melbourne, on the market.

The three-bedroom family home, which the couple bought in 2006, will be sold at auction with a price guide of $2.25 million – $2.45 million.

Cate and Andrew have lived in the UK since 2015 and still own several other properties together.

Their portfolio includes a glorious Victorian mansion in East Sussex, England, which they bought for £4.9 million (AU$9.4 million) in 2015.

The couple also own an investment property in Sydney’s CBD.

Cate and Andrew share three sons: Dashiell, 22, Roman, 19, and Ignatius, 16, and a daughter named Edith, eight.
