Stephen, 67, and his husband Elliott, 36, haven’t been seen together for six years
Stephen Fry and his husband Elliott Spencer have not been seen in public together for six years, but the couple are still going strong according to the actor-turned-TV presenter. Stephen, 67, got married to Elliott, 36, in January 2015 with the couple tying-the-knot in Dereham, Norfolk.
Since then, they have chosen to keep out of the spotlight and have rarely been seen out together. They have occasionally been spotted together at an awards show or premiere, but not within the past six years, reports the Mirror.
Now Stephen has shared a rare insight into his marriage while discussing how he ended up hosting the UK version of the iconic American gameshow Jeopardy! The star began hosting the quiz show in January last year and can currently be seen presenting the second season.
While discussing the circumstances around his casting as the show judge, Stephen shared a glimpse into his married life – telling The Jonathan Ross show in scenes set to air on Saturday night: “I was on The Morning Show [in the US].
“I had dinner with my American agent, he said, ‘What do you do when you’re not called on set?’ and I said, ‘My husband and I, we don’t go to Hollywood parties much, we have an early supper, watch Jeopardy! go to bed.'”
He continued: “He said, ‘Do you watch it in the UK?’ I said, ‘We don’t have it in the UK.’ The conversation moved on, I thought no more of it. Two weeks later, he phones and says: ‘ITV London is thrilled you’re going to do Jeopardy!'”
Earlier this year, Stephen made a rare public comment about his marriage as he shared a throwback photo from his wedding day via social media and published a gushing tribute to his other half. He wrote in an Instagram caption: “Ten happy years to the day since we were joined in marriage. I’m a lucky man.”
