In a subsequent tweet, Lynch described Gleeson as a very down to earth, simple and relaxed person.

He elaborated on the nuptials further in an interview with the Irish Independent , noting that Gleeson and OMahony who is a fellow actor had plans for a larger fte in England on a future date.

We had a lovely, prayerful, dignified wedding ceremony, Lynch told the publication in an interview published Monday. Jack texted me this morning to say that it was such a wonderful, moving ceremony and afterwards they went for a meal.

He continued, Everyone down here knows Jack and that shows theyre just part of the whole community. When I met him, it was as if we knew each other all our lives, hes that kind of person. Theres nothing artificial.

A former child actor, Gleeson catapulted to global fame on Game of Thrones in 2011, appearing on the smash HBO fantasy series for four seasons before his character was killed off .

I just stopped enjoying it as much as I used to, he told Entertainment Weekly at the time. When you make a living from something, it changes your relationship with it. Its not like I hate it, its just not what I want to do.

These days, Gleesons career is once again in high gear. In 2020, he appeared on the BBC Two series Out of Her Mind . He is also slated to appear alongside Liam Neeson in Netflix s In the Land of Saints and Sinners , due out next year.
