Kim Cattrall, who played the incomparable Samantha Jones on all six seasons of *Sex and the City*, plus two movies, is officially taken.
The actress, 69, married 55-year-old audio engineer Russell Thomas on Thursday at Chelsea Old Town Hall in London, PEOPLE reported.
There were just 12 guests in attendance to see Cattrall wearing her Dior suit. *SATC* fans will appreciate that she was styled by the franchise's Emmy Award-winning costume designer Patricia Field.

Cattrall and Thomas, who are both British, met in 2016, when she appeared on the radio show *Woman's Hour*, which was a program of his employer, the BBC.
"We kind of liked each other, we kept in touch, and then he came out to Vancouver," Cattrall told PEOPLE in 2020. "It was very brave of him because we didn't really know each other other than having a few meals together. But he came and we got along great, and we've been together ever since!"**

"He's had an incredibly interesting life and really done it on his terms," Cattrall told the outlet. "He's a bit of a rebel, which I love."
