Is Tom Ellis Married? A Look Into His Love Life

Tom Ellis might just be the most loved and not to mention, hottest devil in the history of television. The Welsh actor famously portrayed the titular character of Lucifer Morningstar, on Fox urban fantasy, Lucifer. Ellis's charming iteration of the fallen angel entertained the viewers for the six seasons of the show before it was taken off the air in 2021.  

The Fox show, later nabbed by Netflix for its last three seasons, certainly garnered Ellis a legion of fans, and an assured spot in the limelight.

Ahead is all the intel on the fan-favorite devil's personal life.

Ellis has been married twice and all in all, one can tell that the Welsh star really is a family man. His first marriage ended after nine years in 2014 and it wasn't until 2019 that he decided to delve into his second attempt for a happily ever after.    

The Lucifer fame married writer Meaghan Oppenheimer, who had been his longtime girlfriend up until their beautiful wedding. The couple's nuptial was both a noble and loved-filled event for the two to kick-start their forever journey.  

For wedding gifts, Ellis and his then-bride had asked their guests, which included most of Ellis's Lucifer co-stars, to donate money to Planned Parenthood. It wasn't a low-key affair either, instead the loved-up couple released a series of snippets of their wedding and gave credits to people who made their day unforgettable.  

The newly wedded welcomed their firstborn, Ellis's fourth, Dolly Ellis-Oppenheimer, via surrogacy, in November last year. Announcing the birth of their newborn, Tom wrote, "We love her. Huge thank you to our amazing surrogate."

Oppenheimer first broke into the scene with the 2010 short film, Hot Mess, which she wrote and starred in. Later in her career, Meaghan drew more notice for writing screenplays for projects like We are Your Friends, Queen America, Tell Me Lies, and Fear the Walking Dead.  

Meaghan started dating the Miranda actor a year after he finalized his divorce from his first wife. Almost two years into their dating bliss, the Queen America screenwriter announced their engagement with a quippy post, captioned, "Does this ring make me look fat?"  

Since exchanging their vows in 2019, Oppenheimer and Ellis have also professionally joined forces.
