Maureen Lipman has married her fiancé David Turner.
The Corrie actress, 79 asked the businessman, also 79, to marry her on a train journey last year.
And now, it’s been revealed they’ve tied the knot.
But, as the ceremony happened on Sunday, it was interrupted by the government’s emergency alert going off on phones.
In pictures obtained by the Mail, Maureen wore a stunning pink coat dress for the occasion, paired with a pink fascinator, while David wore a smart grey suit and a kippah.
Speaking on This Morning on Monday, Maureen's close friend Gyles Brandreth revealed he heard the government alert at the event.
He joked: “What happened was this, at 2:30 the rabbi said, 'I have written to the Prime Minister, telling him that there's going to be this exciting wedding, do you have a message?
“And the Prime Minister replied, I'm not able to be here but I've arranged for sirens to be sound all over the country'.'’
Gyles had previously let slip the date of the wedding on his podcast, Rosebud.
“Dame Maureen Lipman, this Sunday I will be going to her wedding,” he said.
“She's getting married. She's getting married in the morning! I think it's actually the afternoon. I'll be there. Isn't it fantastic? To get married in your 80th year is fantastic.”
Last year, Maureen, who plays the no-nonsense Evelyn Plummer on the long-running ITV soap, revealed it was she who decided to pop the question while travelling on a train.
Dame Lipman has been married once before to Corrie writer Jack Rosenthal from 1974 until his death from cancer in 2004.
She later found love with retired computer expert Guido Castro, but declared that she was "against the M word" (marriage), as she mourned his death in January 2021.
The couple had been travelling home on the train from the launch of the Queen’s son Tom Parker-Bowles' latest cooking book when she decided to make her move.
The actress wrote in the Spectator: "Later that night my partner David and I decided to tell our children that, with a combined age of 156, we are going to get married.
"In truth I had been rather against the ‘M’ word, but on a train coming back from Edinburgh he mentioned that it was the minor festival of Tu B’Av – a day when a Jewish woman can ask a man to marry her.
"Unable to resist the gag, I slid under the table separating us on to one knee and asked him for his hand. To my surprise and slight panic, he gave it."
