Chris Hemsworth and Elsa Pataky boast one of the strongest marriages in Hollywood.

But some fans may not know the pair actually tied the knot just three months after going public as a couple in 2010.

Thor star Chris, who celebrated his 39th birthday on Thursday, hasn’t been shy discuss his rushed nuptials, telling Good Morning Britain in 2016 that it was a spur of the moment decision.

‘It did happen quick and it just felt right, it made sense,’ Chris told the show when quizzed on how fast his relationship with Spanish actress Elsa, 46, progressed.

The former Home And Away actor started dating Spanish actress Elsa in early 2010, and they tied the knot in low-key ceremony in December that year.

‘There was no great plan to any of it to be honest. We were on holiday and we said “why don’t we get married too?” And then the next minute… There probably should have been some planning but it all worked out,’ he mused.

‘Honestly, we had both our families on holiday at the same time, just randomly, and we said this is a good opportunity with everyone together so we just did it.’

Chris and Elsa now share three children together, daughter India, 10, and twin sons Sasha and Tristan, 8.

The family resides in a $30million mansion in Broken Head, near the celebrity enclave of Byron Bay.

Last year, Elsa revealed the surprising secret behind her enduring marriage was laughter.

Speaking to Hola! magazine, the Madrid-born beauty said her husband has a knack for diffusing any argument with a joke.

‘We enjoy doing the same stuff and Chris has a great sense of humour and knows how to take the sting out of things,’ she said.

‘He always makes me and the kids laugh or when I’m angry, he tells a joke to lighten the mood. Humour counts for a lot. More than anything, I enjoy laughing with him.’
