Rufus Hound has revealed he's married his girlfriend Sally Hodgkiss after three years togetherDescribing the moment, Rufus said: 'We were privileged enough to take part in @theimprovathon @WiltonMusicHall, a show in which brilliant, erudite, playful, thoughtful, beautiful, sleep deprived people spoke repeatedly of love, commitment, joy and demonstrated the awesome magic that comes when such people do so.'He said: 'Sally walked down for her final bow. As she spoke - a poetic, magnificent final flourish - the universe seemed to scream at me that the time - bizarre as it might be- had come.'As the crowd applauded her, I took to the stage beside her. Wordlessly, I mimed that I was unlikely to be able to speak, as I was totally overwhelmed.'Then I dropped to one knee and she looked confused - this would be an odd twist for the characters we'd been playing (siblings as they were). It was only when I spoke her name she realised what was happening. Some people took pictures.'She said yes. My kids are f**king delighted, my ex congratulated me on the news, my parents are beside themselves and my best friend Steve contacted a special Wedding Robot for validation.'He concluded by writing: 'Anyway, as foolhardy as it feels attempting to be giddily happy in public is (without it being because migrant boats are being sunk or kid refugee centres have had the murals removed) I am. We are. Everything is better with her. She's magic. And soon, I'll be her husband.'News of Rufus's relationship came to light last June when he took to Twitter to talk about his new love, after splitting from wife Beth Johnson as he declared 'nobody has ever loved me as much as her.'Rufus wed Beth in 2007 in a Las Vegas ceremony and together they share son Alby and daughter Hilda, before eventually splitting in 2020.

After Jack was taken off I'm A Celebrity for the same kind of tweets, it was assumed that Rufus would be told he should step down.'But it's been made clear to those working on the show that they're standing by him.'He was eventually forced to quit the show after testing positive for Covid-19.
