And recently, his work in Netflix Love in the Villa comes with an even more interesting twist because he stars in this romantic comedy that premieres on September 1, 2022, with his real-life wife, Laura Hopper.

Meet Laura Hopper, Tom Hopper’s wife
Laura Hopper stars in the Netflix romantic comedy as the villainous Cassie. She plays the status-obsessed fiancée of Charlie, played by her husband Tom Hopper.
The first scene Laura filmed with her husband was a lavish dinner scene, in which her husband’s character realized that her role was completely unsuitable for him.
Apparently, it was Laura who found the script and encouraged Tom to do the project. After Tom signed on to the project, he told the writer-director that Laura was interested. So she auditioned and got the part as well. And just like that, the real-life couple got to act opposite each other for the first time. They had acted in the same movie but not like this. (Of course) they loved it and Tom in particular couldn’t stop talking about the experience in his recent interviews. “It was a real blessing for us,” were Tom’s exact words. Besides, it wasn’t just a love fest for the Hoppers. Their co-star Kat Graham, who plays Julia, also loved working with Laura.
As for their romantic comedy, it all started after they met at a party in 2009. They eventually got married on June 7, 2014.
Back in the present, they are clearly still happily married. Even today, they still believe that together they can move mountains.
Together, the couple also serve as parents. They have a son and a daughter. Their son, Freddie Douglas Hopper (born June 1, 2015), is nonverbal and was diagnosed with autism shortly before his fifth birthday. Since then, his parents have been open about their journey in the hope of helping other parents.

Speaking to PEOPLE in 2020, Tom shared that he and his wife felt they wanted to do this not just for their son, but for parents who are going through this so they don’t feel as alone as they did before. You have to trust each other and trust the journey and wait for the right things to happen eventually, not overnight, he added. And speaking specifically about his son and his specific autism, he described how his young son amazes him every day. The loving father added that his son’s brain just works differently.
Furthermore, Laura and Tom’s youngest daughter, Truly Rose Hopper, was born later on July 6, 2018.
According to Laura, Tom has always been the best father to their “naughty children”. And in turn, Tom believes that his wife and the mother of his children is the solid support of the family.
