The wedding came as a shock to fans, with actor Tom admitting it was difficult to keep the on-screen marriage a secret.
He previously said: tv insider: ‘We had a fake bride and in between scenes I put on my cassock so it looked like I was just leading someone else’s wedding.
Next: “Then we sneak Charlotte into the church, away from the photographers who come to take pictures of us while we’re filming. We had as much secrecy as Marvel.”
