Alan Rickman Married: ‘Harry Potter’ Actor Weds Rima Horton

Wedding bells were ringing for Alan and Rima in a low-key ceremony in New York. The actor revealed to Germany’s “Bild” newspaper that the couple enjoyed exchanging vows in an intimate setting without guests.

“We are married. Just recently. It was great, because no one was there,” the Love Actually star explained. “After the wedding in New York we walked across the Brooklyn Bridge and ate lunch.”

Alan Rickman Bought His Wife A Modest Wedding Band

Keeping things even more fuss-free, Alan added that his sweetheart didn’t want a flashy ring, so he bought her a modest $200 band. Yet, it seems that it was a little bit too simple for his economist bride, who he joked “never wears it.”

Speaking to Hello magazine, Alan gushed about his lady and their unbreakable bond. He told the weekly, “I think every relationship should be allowed to have its own rules. She’s tolerant. She’s incredibly tolerant. Unbelievably tolerant. Possibly a candidate for sainthood.”
