7 Sep
Summary
- The couple shared a rare public display of affection at Venice.
- Alicia discussed finding contentment in her marriage.
- They met in 2013 and fell in love filming together.

Alicia Vikander and Michael Fassbender graced the Venice Film Festival red carpet, marking a rare public display of affection. The couple, known for their privacy, walked hand-in-hand for the premiere of Vikander's film, "The Echo Chamber," sharing a kiss. Vikander recently offered insight into their marriage, telling Vanity Fair that enduring love doesn't require constant drama, a sentiment she felt with Fassbender from the start.
Their relationship blossomed after meeting in 2013 and later falling in love while filming "The Light Between Oceans" in 2014. They married in October 2017 in Ibiza and settled in Lisbon, Portugal. The couple welcomed their first child in 2021 and a second in 2024, intentionally keeping their children out of the spotlight.
Vikander has spoken candidly about her motherhood journey, including fertility struggles and miscarriages before her first child. She described becoming a mother as transformative and, after her second child's arrival in 2024, found newfound confidence. A key family rule ensures one parent is always home with their children, though Vikander admits to experiencing "mum guilt."
