Congratulations! “Star Wars” Actor John Boyega Confirms Secret Marriage & Baby On The Way Amid Speculation He Wed Tae Heckard

Surprise! “Star Wars” actor #JohnBoyega is officially a married man — and he’s getting ready to become a dad!

The 34-year-old actor dropped both bombshells during a recent interview with The Guardian, revealing that he’s been secretly married for nearly two years and is expecting a baby boy with his wife. Boyega shared that the couple opted for an intimate wedding ceremony rather than a traditional #Nigerian celebration, although he hopes to have a bigger celebration down the road. “We got a baby cooking,” he announced, adding, “My life is completely, completely fulfilled in terms of family. It’s been so nice with the timing.”

While Boyega stopped short of revealing his bride’s identity, his confessions come amid heightened speculation that he secretly tied the knot with actress #TaeHeckard, 48. The two only follow each other on Instagram, and Heckard’s bio currently reads “Tae Boyega.” She’s also shared social media posts seemingly hinting at their relationship, including a cartoon sketch appearing to depict the pair and a photo showing her reflection in Boyega’s sunglasses.

Big congratulations!
