In 2013, he married actress Eleanor Matsuura, whom he met while appearing in an RSC production of Coriolanus. The couple have acted together professionally. Describing that experience, Matsuura told the British newspaper The Standard: “Luckily we’re one of those couples who actually enjoy working together. It’s helped that we’ve been able to cut through all the airs and graces and get down to it. Acting isn’t a nine to five anyway so we’re both happy to discuss it at home.”[1] They had their first child in 2017.[2]
