Are Alicia Vikander And Michael Fassbender Divorcing? New Details On The Hollywood Power Couple's Allegedly Rocky Marriage
Could this Hollywood power couple be kaput?
They met on the set of one of their films, and seemed to hit it off almost instantly. When they got married, all of Hollywood seemed to root for their marriage to succeed. But now, it looks like their marriage may be on the rocks. So, are Alicia Vikander and Michael Fassbender divorcing?
Alicia Vikander met Michael Fassbender on the set of their film, The Light Between Oceans. They got married in October 2017 and have kept their relationship remarkably low-key by Hollywood standards ever since.
However, recent rumors suggest that their storybook romance may be on the rocks. Here’s what we know about Alicia Vikander and Michael Fassbender’s marriage.
1. They were recently spotted together in Ireland.
JustJared recently featured a collection of photos with the two lovebirds together on a date in Killarney, Ireland. The date was particularly special, because Michael Fassbender — though German-born — grew up in the town. Alicia was snapped wearing a Lou & Grey sweatshirt, and the couple seemed quite happy and in love in the “pap snaps.”
2. But that “date” may be a ruse for trouble brewing in paradise.
According to RadarOnline, famed Hollywood gossip reporter A.J. Benza got the scoop about Alicia Vikander and Michael Fassbender’s marriage being in trouble. According to Benza, Vikander, who was recently spotted on a yacht owned by a friend during the Cannes Film Festival, has been spending more time with her friends than with her husband.
“Their marriage has had so many ups and downs in such a short period of time. Alicia was so happy to be in Cannes and thrilled to be able to be herself once again,” reported the outlet.
3. There was a more innocent reason for Michael Fassbender to not be around during Cannes.
According to the Daily Mail, there was another, more innocent reason for Michael Fassbender to not be around his wife during the Cannes Film Festival: he was working!
The outlet reports that he is currently in the process of promoting Dark Phoenix, the latest installment in the X-Men film franchise, where he plays a young Magneto (opposite James McAvoy as a young Professor Charles Xavier, and opposite Sophie Turner in the title role of Jean Grae/The Dark Phoenix). In fact, he was on The Graham Norton Show to talk about reprising his role in the Marvel film franchise.
Seems like Alicia Vikander and Michael Fassbender getting cozy in Ireland was the “real deal” and not a ruse!
4. GossipCop confirmed that the rumors about Alicia Vikander and Michael Fassbender splitting are false.
GossipCop is a notorious website that lives to debunk rumors in the blogosphere, and they’ve just recently debunked the Alicia Vikander and Michael Fassbender divorce rumors. They’ve spoken to a source who knows the couple well, and that source has confirmed that despite the rumors of their split, Alicia Vikander and Michael Fassbender are still together.
“Gossip Cop checked in with a mutual pal of ours and the couple, who confirms that the outlet’s report is completely false. Our trusted source wasn’t able to speak on the record, but assures us that Vikander and Fassbender are happily married,” they wrote.
So, it looks like this is one Hollywood couple who will remain together — at least for now!
