When people talk about the top talk shows, there is one thing that they tend to discuss, the hosts. On the one hand, that makes a lot of sense since the top talk show hosts tend to be very rich, popular, and famous. However, one thing that a lot of people seem to ignore is that talk shows would be nothing if there wasn’t an endless stream of compelling guests. Thankfully, the vast majority of people who make it big in the entertainment industry tend to look and carry themselves like they are big stars whenever they appear in public.
Unlike a lot of his peers, Freddie Highmore certainly doesn’t act like the typical star when he gets interviewed. On top of that, Highmore is an unusual star in a long list of other ways including the fact that he got a surprising degree for a major celebrity. With that in mind, most people aren’t surprised when Highmore does things that are out of the norm for a famous actor. However, when the world learned that Highmore had gotten married and virtually nobody knew that was happening in advance, it took a lot of people by surprise. On top of that, a lot of people were left wondering why news of Highmore’s plans to get married were kept so secretive.
How The World Learned Freddie Highmore Got Married
In the years since Freddie Highmore first rose to fame, he has been romantically linked to a small group of women. For example, it is known that Highmore once dated Dakota Fanning and a woman named Sarah Bolger. On top of that, it once was rumored that Highmore was dating Abagail Breslin but that relationship never was confirmed by anyone involved.
While Freddie Highmore isn’t currently dating any of the aforementioned women, he clearly believes that the love he has for the woman in his life today will last. After all, Highmore and Klarissa Munz got married in 2021 much to the surprise of most of his fans who had no idea he even had a girlfriend at that time.
Ultimately, Freddie Highmore’s fans only learned that he had walked down the aisle when he talked about getting married during a September 2021 appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! During his appearance on that talk show, Highmore made it clear that he adores his wife while also pledging not to overreact.
“I’m not going to jump up and down on the couch on the talk show and express my excitement that way. I know that you do that in America. But I’m as happy as a Brit can be and I’m married to a very wonderful woman now. So yes, I feel very happy.
Why Freddie Highmore Kept His Marriage A Secret
These days, Freddie Highmore is best known for his role starring in The Good Doctor and his past work as the star of the horror series Batres Motel. For that reason, some people may have forgotten that Highmore first rose to fame when he was a child thanks to his stunning work in the movie Finding Neverland.
Since Freddie Highmore is a former child star, there was a very good chance that he would go on to struggle in life. After all, there unfortunately are too many examples of former child stars whose lives went on to be cautionary tales. Even though many of the people who’ve had similar experiences to what Highmore went through as a child have made major mistakes, Freddie seems like a well-adjusted, if slightly unusual, human being.
Based on what Freddie Highmore has said during interviews, there is a very specific reason why he seems to be such a happy man despite his unusual life. After all, during interviews, Highmore has made it clear that he has intentionally made several decisions about his lifestyle to keep himself “grounded”. For example, when Highmore spoke to the Evening Standard in 2017, he explained some of the decisions that have allowed him to avoid being wrapped up in his celebrity status.
