Rufus Sewell's Social Media Followers Witness a Surprise Engagement
Rufus Sewell's Instagram followers were in for a treat when his significant other, Vivian Benitez, flaunted her sparkling engagement ring. At 27 years old, Benitez, who is more than half a century younger than the actor, looked ecstatic with her new bling. Sewell shared the moment by planting a smooch on her cheek.
Benitez captioned the post with a humorous twist, saying, "Until death (or he refuses to learn to use indoor shoes) do us part," hinting at the idyllic setting of Rome where they had recently vacated. A day prior, Benitez posted a photo of Sewell in front of the iconic Trevi Fountain.
Three Times' a Charm?
With this upcoming ceremony, Rufus Sewell is preparing for his third walk down the aisle. His initial marriage was with Australian fashion journalist Yasmin Abdallah from 1999 to 2000. Following this, he tied the knot with Amy Gardner from 2004 to 2006, giving birth to their son, William Douglas Sewell. Sewell is also a father to a daughter, Lola, with ex-partner Ami Komai.
