Coronation Street actor Michael Le Vell, known for his role as Kevin Webster, has tied the knot with his long-time partner, Louise Gibbons. The 61-year-old soap star and Louise, who have been engaged for nine years, exchanged vows at Sale Town Hall in Manchester today.

Surrounded by loved ones, Michael sported a beige suit and brown tie, while Louise looked stunning in a strapless white bodice with feathered sleeves. Following their “I do” moment, the couple emerged from the ceremony hand in hand, showered with duck egg blue confetti as they shared another kiss.

Earlier in the day, Michael, visibly excited, arrived at the Town Hall, giving a thumbs-up as he awaited his bride’s arrival. The couple, who began dating in 2014, shared a brief split early in their relationship but quickly reunited. They announced their engagement in 2017.

Despite being a well-known soap star, Michael and Louise prefer to keep their relationship private. The couple’s low-key wedding day contrasted with Michael’s on-screen persona. Their intimate celebration included close friends, family, and select co-stars from Coronation Street.

Notably, Michael was previously married to Janette Beverley, with whom he shares two children. After 25 years together, they parted ways in 2011. The newlyweds, looking relaxed amid the sunny weather, are now embarking on this new chapter of their lives together.
