Frank Skinner Finally Marries After 24 Years and Four Rejections
So, you’re not going to believe this — Frank Skinner is married. Yes, really. After 24 years of being with Cath Mason and getting turned down four times, the comedian finally tied the knot. And of course, he did it in his own wonderfully oddball, low-key way.

Frank, now 68, dropped the bombshell on his podcast, Frank Off The Radio , saying, “You’ll never guess what I did on Monday... I got married.” But don’t feel left out — no one was invited. It was just Frank, Cath, and their son, Buzz, who was born in 2012 and served as the sole witness. The ceremony happened not in a lavish venue, but on the stairs of Camden Town Hall.
Now, this wasn’t your typical wedding. Cath made it clear from the beginning: no church, no guests, no ring, and absolutely no white dress. Frank joked, “She wore a flowery dress — she moaned about that. I said, 'You can’t have leggings!’” And in true alternative fashion, they walked in to “Lie Dream of a Casino Soul” by The Fall — a band that meant a lot to them in their early days together.
It’s kind of hilarious and deeply touching at the same time. Frank even described the awkwardness of the vows: “We had to look each other in the eye and hold hands — it was like doing a séance!” And when it came time to kiss the bride, he said, “It was like kissing a reluctant employee under the mistletoe.”
So, why now, after all this time? Frank half-jokingly said, “Maybe I’ve got too much money and I’ll give her half in five years.” But on a deeper level, it seems like it was just the right time for them, even if neither really knows why. It wasn’t a tax thing. It wasn’t romantic fanfare. It was just... them.
And yes, in case you didn’t know, Frank Skinner isn’t even his real name — it’s Christopher Graham Collins. “Frank Skinner” was a guy on his dad’s dominoes team. Even Princess Anne found that confusing when she awarded him his MBE in 2023. But if you know Frank, that just fits perfectly.
This whole story is a brilliant mix of British humour, love, awkwardness, and authenticity. It’s not about grand gestures or Instagrammable moments. It’s about two people doing things exactly how they want — quietly, weirdly, and wonderfully. And after 24 years, a few refusals, and a lot of jokes, Frank Skinner can now call Cath Mason his wife. Even if she still won’t wear a ring.
