The Telegraph reported on Wednesday that "Benedict Cumberbatch, son of Wanda and Timothy Cumberbatch of London, and Sophie, daughter of Katharine Hunter of Edinburgh and Charles Hunter of London" are tying the knot. The announcement was spotted in the Forthcoming Marriages section of The Times. Earlier reports stated that Cumberbatch flew to Edinburgh to ask for Hunter’s hand in marriage.

Are you delighted, too, Spotters?
