Benedict Cumberbatch Is Officially Off the Market After Adorable Engagement Announcement

Benedict Cumberbatch lovers, we know your hearts are breaking knowing you'll never marry this British babe. The Imitation Game star is engaged to actress/director Sophie Hunter, and when you find out exactly how his engagement was announced, we're sorry to say that you won't feel any better.

The actor's parents went the old school route by placing the below ad in the "Forthcoming Marriages" section of The Times.

The two will tie the knot after a four-year romance, sparked while working on Burlesque Fairytales in 2009. While we played a fun game of Do, Marry, Kill with the actor a year-and-a-half ago at the Star Trek Into Darkness premiere, we now know he only has eyes for one person and one person only.
