“The Good Doctor”star revealed he is married to a “wonderful woman.”
Freddie Highmore revealed during his appearance on Jimmy Kemmel Live! that he is now married when the late-night host got distracted and noticed the wedding band on his finger.
“I’m looking at your wedding ring right now,” Jimmy said. “That’s a wedding ring, yes?”
“Yes, it is a wedding ring. Yes, I got married,” Highmore said. “It’s funny ever since I’ve been wearing this ring people have been asking me if I’m married, so I figured, I should clarify it.”
He added, “I’m not gonna 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.”
He moreover shared that he “still can’t get over the terminology and the vocab” saying “a ‘married man’ just sounds very old and ‘my wife’ sounds very possessive.”
The entertainer proceeded, “We don’t really use that yet, but we just point to the rings and be like, ‘Here, look, draw your own conclusions.’”
As for his wife, Highmore said “my husband” sounds a “little bit better. It’s just the ‘my wife’ — I don’t know.”
Jimmy then, at that point, advised Freddie that he must “loosen up” and the actor said, “It’s still early days. Thank you for the tips!”
“The Good Doctor” is currently on its fifth season and will air on ABC Mondays at 10 p.m. ET.
