This was the secret wedding of Anya Taylor-Joy and Malcolm McRae: cakes in the shape of a human heart and Cara Delevingne as photographer

Two years ago, on April Fools - April Fools' Day in the United States, April 1 - actress Anya Taylor-Joy, 27, married her best friend. This is how she herself refers in her new Instagram post to her since then husband, the musician Malcolm McRae, 29, with whom she said “I do” in New Orleans. They did it secretly, but the interpreter has now decided to share the images of the curious link. “The magic of that day is ingrained in every cell of my being, forever. Happy second (first) anniversary my love... You are the coolest,” he says in the text that accompanies the images he published this Tuesday, April 2, on the social network in which almost 10.5 million people follow him.

The new addition to the cast of the

Dune

saga appears in the first photo walking through an old cathedral with a bouquet of flowers in hand, dressed in a Dior wedding dress and a long veil. In another image, that same veil covers the couple, actress Cara Delevingne, who is labeled as one of the ceremony's photographers, and another guest at the wedding. But the one that has caught the attention of her followers the most is the last photo, which shows the extravagant wedding cakes. “Yes, those are anatomically correct heart cakes. Yes, I am the vampire Lestat,” Taylor-Joy jokes in the postscript to the publication. Two life-size bloody hearts rest on a plate, so realistic that it is hard to believe they are a dessert. But this is confirmed by the actress in her Instagram stories, with a video in which she and McRae cross their arms and bite each other.
