Daisy Ridley and husband Tom Bateman cut stylish figures as they posed hand-in-hand at the UK premiere of their new movie Magpie in London on Friday. 

The Star Wars star, 32, who announced the marriage in 2023 after years of speculation, plays Anette in the thriller, which actor Tom, 35, wrote.  

Both wore black suits with Daisy's tailored jacket cinched at her waist with a long leather belt and she completed the look with wide-legged trousers. 

Meanwhile Tom looked suave in a double breasted blazer and beamed as he and his wife, who met on the set of the 2017 film Murder on the Orient Express, posed with the movie's director Sam Yates and producer Kate Solomon.

Magpie is a thriller which follows a couple whose lives are thrown into disarray when their young daughter is cast in a movie alongside a major star.

Daisy Ridley, 32,  and husband Tom Bateman, 35, cut stylish figures as they posed hand-in-hand at the UK premiere of their new movie Magpie during FrightFest 24 in London on Friday 

The Star Wars star,  who announced their marriage in 2023 after years of speculation, plays Anette in the thriller, which actor Tom wrote

The offical synopsis reads: 'Ben and Anette's young daughter lands a co-starring role alongside a glamorous movie star. However, when Anette suspects that Ben has become infatuated with the actress, secrets and lies threaten to come to the surface and destroy them all'. 

Earlier this year Daisy revealed what it was like to work with her husband on the much anticipated movie.

Speaking to the Radio Times, she said: 'I found that process wonderful, because our tastes align on basically everything.

'I think he’s a brilliant writer and we were so clear about what it is that we wanted to make. And we’ve achieved that.'

Daisy and Tom have been dating since 2017 and sparked engagement rumours when he was spotted with a ring on his wedding finger in 2019. 

It comes after Daisy revealed she has been diagnosed with Graves' disease.

Daisy opened up about her experience with the autoimmune disorder for the first time during an interview with Women's Health magazine, in which she told how she mistakenly blamed her symptoms on a 'really stressful' film role.

Graves' disease is an autoimmune condition where your immune system produces antibodies that cause the thyroid to produce too much thyroid hormone, according to the NHS.

The cause of Graves' disease is unknown, but it mostly affects young or middle-aged women and often runs in families.

After suffering from symptoms including hot flashes and fatigue following the filming of the psychological thriller Magpie, Daisy visited her GP, having put her health woes down to the role.

Opening up about her health battle, the Star Wars star shared that it was her 'first time' speaking publicly about her Graves' disease.

She shared: 'I thought, Well, I've just played a really stressful role; presumably that's why I feel poorly.'

However, she was then urged to see an endocrinologist (a medical practitioner who treats patients with hormone-related diseases), who later informed her that her symptoms can sometimes be referred to as 'tired but wired.'

The star had struggled with symptoms that included hand tremors, racing heart rate, weight loss and fatigue.

After being made aware of what could be happening to her, Daisy had a moment of realisation, noting: 'It was funny, I was like, "Oh, I just thought I was annoyed at the world," but turns out everything is functioning so quickly, you can't chill out.'

But while the Young Woman and the Sea star felt sad over her health condition, she also felt some frustration seeing as she was someone who physically took good care of herself.

Despite this, Daisy embarked on some lifestyle changes to help her manage the disease, including eating a mindful diet which she's 'not super strict about' and practicing self-care including exercise to 'make myself feel good.'

After implementing these changes, the beauty explained that she found herself feeling better and more aware of life around her, noting: that she 'didn't realise how bad I felt before.'
