John Boyega: 'Star Wars' Star Secretly Got Married — And Is Becoming a Father

TVS News AI, editorially supervised, presents John Boyega: 'Star Wars' Star Secretly Got Married — And Is Becoming a Father.

Imagine getting married in secret — and two years later, the world is talking about it without ever having noticed. That's exactly what happened to John Boyega. The British actor, who became world-famous in 2015 as Finn in "Star Wars: The Force Awakens," has been married for two years. The 34-year-old has now confirmed this publicly himself — and immediately followed it up with a second piece of happy news: he's going to be a father.

The news is currently spreading across several US celebrity portals. Both "Just Jared" and "Page Six" report consistently that the wedding took place two years ago and that Boyega has only now confirmed it. That he was able to keep it to himself for so long fits his well-known approach to dealing with the public.

Almost nothing is known about his wife

The most intriguing question remains unanswered for now: who is the woman by his side? Neither "Just Jared" nor "Page Six" name his partner in the excerpts available. "Just Jared" even poses the question in its headline itself — and provides no answer in the text passages accessible to us. For now, all that's left is the confirmation itself: yes, the "Star Wars" star is married — that's all we know at the moment.

A boy on the way

Alongside the wedding, there's another piece of news: John Boyega is going to be a father. According to "Page Six," the British actor is expecting a boy. For the 34-year-old, who has been one of the most recognizable faces of the modern "Star Wars" era since "The Force Awakens," this marks the beginning of a new chapter away from lightsabers and starships.

Exactly when the baby is due doesn't come through in the reports. The sources are also silent on plans for the time after the birth — which fits an actor who otherwise consistently keeps private matters out of the public eye.
