Michelle Dockery posts selfie with Downton Abbey husband Dan Stevens as the pair reunite

Michelle Dockery posted a selfie with former co-star Dan Stevens as the pair were reunited at a BAFTA tribute evening.

The actress, who plays Lady Mary Crawley in the ITV show, posed with her on-screen husband at the Richmond Theatre.

Posting the picture of the pair on her Instagram account, Dockery wrote: “Reunited. @thatdanstevens I've missed this face #bafta #LastDaysOfDownton #matthewandmary.”

Fans of the show were left devastated when Stevens’ character was killed in a car crash during the 2012 Christmas special, leaving Dockery’s character devastated.

While Dockery is gearing up for the launch of the last ever series of the globally successful show, Stevens is making waves in Hollywood.

The 32-year-old has most recently been shooting scenes for the Disney live-action remake of Beauty and the Beast alongside Emma Watson.

Despite their busy schedules, Dockery and Stevens made sure that they were at the BAFTA tribute evening with their fellow cast and crew.

They were joined by stars including Lily James, Hugh Bonneville and Samantha Bond on the red carpet.

Speaking about the potential for a Downton film, executive producer Gareth Neame recently said:

“There's rumour and speculation. I'm not denying anything. I think a Downton movie could be a wonderful thing. But we don't have a script or plan yet.”
