Ricky Gervais is set to marry his partner of 44 years.
The Office creator admitted, however, that he hasn't changed his stance that marriage isn't necessary, saying rather that he is likely to wed author Jane Fallon in the coming years for tax purposes.
Assets left to your spouse or civil partner, provided they're living in the UK, are exempt from inheritance tax.
"And that will be the reason I marry," Gervais told Saga magazine. "It's mad. How more married can you be? We share all our money, we've been living together for 40 years. Some marriages don't last a year. It's horrible isn't it? I've got to get around to marrying, before I die."'
The comedian met Fallon when they were both 21 at university in London, and have been together ever since.
"We do everything together," he continued. "Go for a walk every day, eat every meal, watch telly on the couch."
