The 'Queen's Gambit' star revealed the news of her secret April Fools' Day wedding on Instagram, and even shared some photos and video from the 2022 event—including her anatomically-correct heart cakes.

Anya Taylor-Joy isn't available, guys.

On Monday, the award-winning Queen's Gambit star officially revealed she had secretly been married for two years, and it wasn't an April Fools' joke.


Taylor-Joy, 27, tied the knot with musician Malcolm McRae, 29, on April 1, 2022, in New Orleans. The couple held a second wedding in September 2023 at the Palazzo Pisani Moretta in Venice, Italy.

To commemorate their second wedding anniversary, she took to Instagram and shared a carousel of photos from the day of the nuptials.

She wrote:

"Two years ago, on April Fools, I secretly married my best friend in New Orleans."
"The magic of that day is ingrained in every cell of my being, forever."


"Happy second ( first ) anniversary my love…you’re the coolest🫀," she wrote, referring to their first ceremony in New Orleans.

Here is a photo of the happy couple under her white wedding veil with two other friends, one of whom was model and cat mom Cara Delevingne.

The human heart emoji that followed was a nod to the gory wedding cake that guests devoured at the reception.

She also referred to Anne Rice’s “Interview With the Vampire” novel, saying:

"N.B yes, those are anatomically correct heart cakes. Yes, I am the vampire Lestat."

The demonically-themed action role-playing video game Diablo humorously remarked they "prefer real hearts" but that the cake version was as good as devil's food.

It's worth mentioning that Taylor-Joy and McRae share the same birthday, which is April 16.

She was born in 1996 and he entered our world before her in 1994.

West Side Story actor Rachel Zegler acknowledged this in her congratulatory comment, writing:

"happy anniversary to hands down my favorite birthday twins to ever get married."

Dior designed Taylor-Joy's narrow-strapped beige wedding gown accented with gold sequins throughout.

The bodice of the tiered tulle skirt featured an embroidery of a hummingbird, which was seen in a video on the second slide of her post.

She was also spotted wearing the dress on a balcony in Venice last October.

The fashion house's Instagram account sent some love for the celebratory occasion.

Fans and friends showered them with love.

They seem to have a good "pulse" on their marriage.

Taylor-Joy said of her matrimonial bliss in a 2022 interview with British Vogue:

“I said to my partner the other day that he was my hobby."
"He loved it because he’s the same. I’ve finally found someone who will happily sit in silence with me reading."
"We’re basically 80 years old and seven at the same time.”

Happy second anniversary to the happy couple!

Katie Couric Has Hilariously Shady 1-Word Response To Clip Of Melania Singing In Her Documentary

Finding great moments from the Melania Trump vanity project, her self-titled documentary, may prove difficult. Largely described as a $75 million dollar bribe—$45 million to make and $30 million to market—from Amazon's Jeff Bezos to MAGA Republican President Donald Trump, the film was a bomb at the box office and savaged by critics.

This was despite suspicious bulk ticket purchases during Melania's opening weekend and review bombing by Trump's MAGA minions to try to prop up the film that followed Melania Trump around as she tried to pick out clothes in the 20 days leading up to Trump's second inauguration.

An Older MAGA Voter's Rant About How Prices Are Going Up Due To Trump Is Getting Epically Skewered

Keith Pedersen, a senior Trump voter, went viral after sharing on Facebook his complaints about how prices for gas, groceries and other essentials are going up under President Trump—and has received some very unsympathetic responses.

In January, Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins claimed that food prices were coming down, even as the Consumer Price Index shows grocery costs rose 0.7% in December. Beef, which Rollins elevated near the top of the food pyramid in the dietary guidelines she recently unveiled, increased 1% over the month and was up 16.4% compared with a year earlier.

Someone Hacked Crosswalks In Denver To Play Hilariously NSFW Anti-Trump Messages—And It's Brilliant

Hackers changed the messages on some newly-installed crosswalks in Denver, Colorado, to play messages criticizing President Donald Trump—to the delight of anti-Trumpers.

The crosswalk push-buttons were newly installed and “still bagged,” operating on factory settings that included a default password easily found online, according to Nancy Kuhn of the Denver Department of Transportation and Infrastructure. She said the password has now been changed and officials “don’t expect a repeat situation" at these locations.
