Just one month after welcoming their son, Marmaduke, the couple attended a special stage performance of the Hunger Games in London's Canary Wharf. They had tied the knot in December, right before the baby's arrival on February 9th. This outing came amid Sam's tough health battle. The 29-year-old was diagnosed with end-stage liver disease after flu turn into sepsis, causing liver and kidney failure late last year. Born with rare conditions that stayed dormant until then, he's now on the liver transplant waiting list. Despite the uncertainty, Sam and Alice chose to prioritize their love. They planned a simple wedding in just four weeks, skipping big traditions like dances or long speeches. Sam has opened up about the emotional toll, fearing he might not meet his son, but recent days have brought him real joy. The event marked the 14th anniversary of the Hunger Games movie release in UK cinemas. Other stars like Trader's Winners, Rachel Duffy, and Steven Livy, plus Laura Whitmore and Charlie Brooks joined in for the celebration.
