They recently shared a series of loved-up snaps together, with Tom captioning the post: ‘When you make your Husband take pictures with you’.

Tom said: ‘Worrying about when things might go back to normal can be exhausting. My happy place is now on the sofa with knitting needles.’

But he admitted his screenwriter husband Dustin joked that being with him was like being wed to a grandmother.
