Michael Le Vell Marries Long-Term Partner Louise Gibbons

A low-key registry-office ceremony in Sale highlights his long Coronation Street tenure, the support his partner provided during past legal and health problems.

Overview

  • Michael Le Vell and Louise Gibbons were married in a small registry-office ceremony in Sale on Saturday, May 30, 2026, with several Coronation Street colleagues in attendance.
  • Photographs published the day before the wedding showed Le Vell enjoying drinks outside The Brook pub in Sale, and images from the ceremony captured the couple leaving to applause and confetti.
  • Friends and co-stars reported at the ceremony included Sally Dynevor, Alan Halsall, Joe Duttine and Sue Devaney, and the couple later held a low-key private reception.
  • Le Vell has played Kevin Webster on Coronation Street since October 1983, making him one of the show's longest-serving actors and a frequent focus of public interest.
  • Coverage recalls Le Vell's past public struggles—his 2013 acquittal on child sex charges, a 2014 rehab stay and a 2019 bankruptcy tied to legal costs—and notes Gibbons is portrayed as a steadying presence through those years.
