Keira Knightley’s Husband James Righton’s Super-Rare Outing Has Instantly Sparked Divorce Rumors

Keira Knightley and her longtime husband, James Righton, are one of the most private couples in Hollywood, and now, everyone is panicking over Righton’s latest outing.

In case you missed it, in photos obtained by DailyMail from earlier this week, Righton was seen cycling around London without his ring, and it instantly put everyone in a panic about whether he and Knightley are headed for divorce.

Now, have either ever been seen without their wedding ring? Not really before this, no, but many celebrities don’t wear their rings sometimes because they’ve been resized, they’re exercising, it’s uncomfortable, and more.

However, this, coupled with Knightley’s decision to revert her name on Companies House to Keira Christina Knightley, as opposed to Righton earlier this year, per The Sun, has fans worried. (It’s not uncommon to use your maiden name for these documents, but the timing of it all has people trying to figure out what is happening behind the scenes!)

For those who don’t know, the Oscar-nominated star and Righton first met in 2011 after being introduced by a mutual pal at a dinner party. They got engaged a year later in May 2012. Almost exactly a year later, on May 4, 2013, the pair married in the small town of Mazan in the South of France.

They share two children. They first welcomed Edie in May 2015, and by Oct 2019, they had welcomed their second daughter, Delilah.
