Michelle Dockery is now engaged to Jasper Waller-Bridge, brother of Phoebe Waller-Bridge. The couple shared the news with The Times which says,
“The engagement is announced between Jasper, son of Michael Waller-Bridge of King’s Lynn, Norfolk, and Teresa Waller-Bridge of Battersea, London, and Michelle Dockery, younger daughter of Michael and Lorraine Dockey of Gidea Park, Essex.”
The announcement comes six years after the death of Michelle Dockery's fiancé, John Dineen. Speaking to The Guardian in 2017 about her grief, she said she did not have the words to describe her feelings.
The Hanna star said that she was married at heart and considered herself a widow. Talking about her late fiancé’s illness, she said that she never lost hope and was not exaggerating when saying that John never complained, which gave them more strength.
Michelle and Jasper made their first appearance in 2019 at the Rome Film Festival after getting to know each other through friends.
