Miranda showed off her ring on The One Show last night after writing about her unnamed husband in her new book I Haven’t Been Entirely Honest With You.
After recounting how they met, she wrote: “He’s not my boyfriend. He’s my husband.
"We got married when I was fifty-one.”
It comes 15 years after the launch of her BBC sitcom Miranda, which featured a long-running joke about her mum being desperate for her to get hitched.

The star got engaged in January during a visit to Kew Gardens in West London after realising she and her new partner had “fallen hopelessly in love with each other”.
She recalls: “We stood still on the bridge overlooking the lake when the silence was pierced as he rather seriously said, ‘Miranda.’
"I turned around, and as I did, he got down on one knee. ‘Miranda…’
“I don’t remember anything else because I simply burst out crying, apparently saying yes before he had finished the sentence (awkward if he’d been tying a shoelace…).

"It's really very touching that you should be very happy that I'm happy and I really, really am.
"I've got my best friend to do life with and it's wonderful. And I'm also utterly thrilled to be back in Teleland and having a book out.
