X-Men's James McAvoy confirms he's secretly married longterm partner Lisa Liberati

Hollywood star James McAvoy has confirmed she’s secretly married his partner Lisa Liberati.

The 42-year-old actor shared the happy news in a chat with The Guardian.

He met Lisa, who was director M Night Shyamalan’s PA at the time, on the set of Split in 2016.

The Scottish actor plays Kevin Wendell Crumb, a character with 23 different personalities, in the hit movie.

James and Lisa went Instagram official in 2017.

A source said at the time: “James and Lisa are having a lot of fun together and behave like a pair of lovestruck teenagers when they are together.”

“They both love partying and are regularly all over each other when they go out together.

“It’s no secret amongst their social group that they are together and everyone thinks they are a great fit.”

James was previously married to actress Anne-Marie Duff, from 2006 to 2016.

Anne-Marie and the actor share a 11-year-old son Brendan.

James and Lisa currently live in London, but the X-Men star says his roots are still in Glasgow, where he was born and raised.

He previously said: “It’s where I was born, where I grew up.”

“I’ve still got a place there and all my family there. I see myself as a Glaswegian and a Londoner – a Glaswegian Londoner.”

James pledged a substantial sum for a 10-year scholarship programme at his old drama school back in 2015, which is now the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland.

However, the star insists that it was more about broadening students’ horizons than creating a future generation of actors.

James explained at the time: “I don’t really care if all the people who have been through the scholarship process end up becoming actors or not.”

“It would be a symptom of things getting better if our stages and screens continued to be diverse for the next 40, 50 or 100 years.”
