Michelle Williams leads a very secret life even though she is one of the most sought-after actresses in Hollywood. So secret that she has quietly been dating rocker Phil Elverum, who is known as Mount Erie, and the two of them recently got married. But no one knew it until today.
She broke the news to Vanity Fair and the buried the lede towards the end of the article. The actress did not reveal when they met, but she says that they were introduced through a friend. Like Williams lost Heath Ledger ten y, he lost his wife to cancer in 2016 and they had one daughter before she died.
Earlier this month, he and his daughter moved across the country to live with Williams and her daughter, Matilda, 12. Besides taking that big step in their relationship, they took another one too. They had a small private ceremony in Adirondacks that included a handful of friends and family.
Williams never gave up love and described the “very sacred and very special,” relationship she has with her new husband. She said, “Ultimately the way he loves me is the way I want to live my life on the whole. I work to be free inside of the moment. I parent to let Matilda feel free to be herself, and I am finally loved by someone who makes me feel free.” With a love like that it explains why he is the first person to get her to be his bride.
While will probably hear very little more about their marriage, be happy we at least heard that they said I do recently. That is more than she normally tells people.
BTW can someone tell me how Busy Phillips has kept quiet all of this time and not screamed the joyous news from as many as rooftops as possible.
