Scottish actor James McAvoy has confirmed that he has married his partner Lisa Liberati.

The Together star met Liberati, who is from Philidephia when working on a film called Split in 2017.

McEvoy had a leading role in the film while Liberati was a production assistant for the director M. Night Shyamala.

Confirming the pair had tied the knot to The Guardian, McEvoy revealed that he is now an honorary Philadelphian: "Yeah, it's like a second home for me".

McAvoy was previously married to his Dark Materials co-star Anne-Marie Duff but the couple divorced 2016.

Last year the star addressed the possibility of reprising his role as Professor X in the X-Men universe, suggesting he was finished with the part.

"I feel like I got to explore, not everything I wanted to explore, because there's always more surely, but I got to explore a ton of Professor X, and I feel quite satisfied with what I got out of him as a performer," he told Collider.

"It's not to say that you don't ever want to, you never want to come back, and you never want to do it again, and all that kind of stuff. You never say never, as I believe James Bond once said.

"But I'm not chomping at the bit. I'm not going to be gutted and desperately sad if it never happens again."
