The actress was supposed to star in a stage production of Steel Magnolias. However, COVID-19 restrictions prevented it from going ahead.
Tointon and Jensen had wished to get married last year on a lawn by a beautiful fjord where Jensen’s grandfather had grown up. However, their special day was put on pause at that time due to the pandemic and national lockdown. Tointon considers it much nicer to get married in a celebratory way when they can enjoy the occasion with their families.
The television star is also looking forward to seeing the bond her two sons will develop. Her announcement comes after she had previously told OK! magazine she was hoping to have more children. She wants her son to have a close bond with his siblings the way she has with her sister.
