Elliot was known as Mr. E before he and Stephen unveiled their relationship to the world.

When did he marry Stephen Fry?

The couple who share a 30-year age gap got married in 2015.

They had their vows witnessed by a mini Oscar Wilde.

Speaking to The Independent about their relationship, Elliot said: “I don’t care what people think. Stephen is the love of my life, the light of my life."

“We laugh all the time,” he added. “Humour is the binding thing in our life. I think that’s what brought us together.

“It’s been incredible. We met at a house party three years ago after we were introduced by friends. The rest is history.”

Since marrying Stephen, their relationship has gone from strength to strength.

Elliott has been helping Stephen through the ups and downs that come with bipolar disorder and together they bring each other happiness and light.

They both share a love of the arts and so Elliott has been attending different shows and exhibitions along with Stephen.

What has Stephen Fry said about his sexuality?

Fry said in a video for charity Proud2Be: "[I’m] not proud because I think being gay is better than being anything else but I think it’s a wonderful thing to be in love and you follow your heart.
