‘They’re both very private and have kept the ceremony very much under wraps, but he has been seen taking lockdown walks with his wedding ring on show.
‘Aidan hasn’t been in a rush to get wed and has very much been waiting for ‘The One’ to come along — and anyone who sees them knows they’re the perfect match.’
Mailonline has contacted representatives for comment.
The couple have reportedly been dating since 2018 after filming fantasy movie The Man Who Killed Hitler And Then The Bigfoot.

Caitlin’s late grandfather Desmond was a deputy director of the CIA during the Kennedy administration.
Aidan and Caitlin have largely kept their romance private with Aidan saying in a 2019 interview: ‘I do have a girlfriend, yeah.’
In 2018 Glamour magazine published an essay by Caitlin entitled ‘No one can tell you what good sex looks like’, in which she admitted having ‘had some really bad sex in my life’.
She said she had initially ‘crafted my bedroom behaviour around what I had seen women do on television – lots of excessive moaning and hair tossing but very little personal satisfaction’.
