Elijah Wood is coveting a new ring … the “Lord of the Rings” star is now referring to his longtime partner, Mette-Marie Kongsved, as his “wife” — seemingly confirming what TMZ learned about a NYE wedding.
Inside of You with Michael Rosenbaum
Elijah was on the latest episode of the “Inside of You” podcast, and he told host Michael Rosenbaum … I’m beyond grateful for my family and my kids and my wife.
Rosenbaum also referred to Mette-Marie — a film producer — as Elijah’s wife, so, it sure sounds like they had some convo about him tying the knot.
Not much is known about Elijah and Mette-Marie’s relationship, given the twosome is notoriously private about their life together. The duo appeared to go public with their romance in January 2018 … later welcoming 2 children together, a son and a daughter.
He’s also wearing a ring on his middle finger that says “Dad” during the podcast.
Witnesses have told us the couple got married in Sweden on New Year’s Eve in what was described as an intimate ceremony with about 80 friends and family members.
We’ve reached out to Elijah’s reps for details, and confirmation they’re legally hitched … but no word back yet.
