Actress Alex Kingston, a familiar face on the red carpet, has had a fascinating love life, but her latest marriage is a true fairytale. And it all began with a stunning fashion statement at her Italian wedding.
After her recent success on the dancefloor in Strictly Come Dancing, Kingston's personal life is back in the spotlight. With three marriages over three decades, she's no stranger to romance. But her first two unions were not meant to last. Her initial marriage to renowned actor Ralph Fiennes, whom she met at drama school, ended in heartbreak when he had an affair with his Hamlet co-star. Her second marriage, to German writer Florian Haertel, also ended in divorce.
But here's where the story takes a turn. In 2015, Alex married writer Jonathan Stamp in a breathtaking Italian ceremony. And the wedding dress she chose for this special day was a bold, unconventional choice—a far cry from the traditional white gown. Alex stunned in an olive green dress with a ruffled skirt, a unique and memorable look.
Photographs from the Daily Mail show Alex walking the streets of Rome with a white bouquet and pink roses adorning her hair, a vision of elegance and style. The wedding took place at the All Saints Anglican Church, and the reception was a gorgeous affair.
Alex's friend, actress Sarah Hadland, played a role in her Strictly journey, encouraging her to take part. Sarah's advice was a double-edged sword, warning of the challenges but also the life-changing rewards. And it seems Alex's life has indeed been transformed, both on the dancefloor and in love.
