James McAvoy has always been one of the most talked-about men in the industry, so his romantic history has attracted a lot of attention and has been a topic of conversation in the media for years.
Currently, the “Speak No Evil” actor is married to Lisa Liberati (Species), with whom he exchanged vows in a rather secretive ceremony in 2021. They have always kept their relationship relatively private.
Without a doubt, they have woven a love story as discreet as it is passionate. The spark between them remained hidden for a long time until, almost a decade ago, the world began to catch glimpses of their romance.
James McAvoy and Lisa Liberati’s relationship timeline
James McAvoy and Lisa Liberati met in 2016 during the filming of the movie “Split”, where she worked as a production assistant. Their connection developed while they worked on the project.
The couple kept their relationship out of the public eye for a while and were first seen together in public in 2017, although at that time they did not officially confirm their romantic relationship.
The following year, in 2018, they began appearing together at events like the popular Toronto International Film Festival, thus confirming their romance. In 2019, they announced their engagement.

They have always been quite respectful and private about their relationship, as when they started dating, the actor was going through a divorce with his ex-partner, Anne-Marie Duff, with whom he shares a child.
In 2021, they finally decided to celebrate their love in a ceremony with their closest friends and family. The details of their wedding remained discreet, staying away from media coverage.
Although it is not known if they have a child together, they currently continue to lead a relatively private life, occasionally sharing some details of their relationship through social media and public appearances.
