Game of Thrones star Natalie Dormer has married her fiancé actor David Oakes in a secret romantic ceremony, it has been reported.
The 41-year-old actress is said to have tied the knot with the Vikings: Valhalla star in Somerset last month.
The newlyweds reportedly had an intimate dinner at Roth Bar & Grill in Bruton where they spent the evening with a small group.
It is believed the couple were married at small service nearby.

Natalie admitted acting may now be tougher with a child. "I'm going to find it very difficult, I think, you don't want to warp the childhood experience," she said.
But she confessed that she may move back into theatre to take advantage of the more child-friendly hours on offer.
