Actor Freida Pinto has announced that she tied the knot with her fiance, photographer Cory Tran, when they were in lockdown amid the Coronavirus pandemic.

The Slumdog Millionaire (2008) star said when they got engaged in November 2019, they thought they would have “this most magical wedding” but the pandemic played spoilsport.

“I should clear the air. I wasn’t planning a big fat Indian wedding. It was just going to be something pretty and simple… But then Covid-19 happened and it’s still happening and we just realised we were going to be planning this for the rest of our lives and probably never doing it,” Pinto said during an appearance on a talk show on Wednesday.

The 37-year-old, who is expecting her first child with Tran, said the couple eventually went to Anaheim, California, and got married.

“I do not want stomach ulcers from planning my own wedding. This was perfect! We got married and then we got to go home and take an afternoon nap,” she added.

Pinto also shared she met Tran, 34, through actor Aaron Paul, her co-star in the drama series The Path. She revealed that she was happily single while shooting their show when Paul introduced her to Cory, his friend.
