What did Julia say about the ‘engagement’ to Laurence?
Julia responded to one comment on the tweet that referenced her husband with a winking emoji.
She also retweeted Laurence’s tweet and declared: “Dear reader, she said Yes…”
I am so confused.
Julia also replied to a follower who followed up Laurence’s tweet with a laughing emoji.
She declared: “Dunno why you’re laughing – you’re the ring bearer.”
So is Julia marrying Laurence Fox?
Well, it appears to be a joke – and ED! has contacted reps for the actor to ask them to let us in on it.
In January 2022, it was revealed that Laurence had got engaged.
His mystery fiancée was later revealed to be Arabella May Fleetwood Neagle.
Julia, meanwhile, married Rob Walton in 2006 and it’s thought they’re still very much an item.
They have one daughter together, who is 14.
