Meet Christina Ricci’s celebrity hairstylist husband Mark Hampton: he joined the Yellowjackets actress as she received her Hollywood Walk of Fame star – and has worked with brands including Hugo Boss
The Welshman, who trained at Vidal Sassoon, previously worked in London and New York; today, he lives in Los Angeles with his Addams Family star wife and their family, and also runs an art gallery
Multi-Emmy-nominated thriller drama Yellowjackets is back for a third season and it’s every bit as mind-bending as you’d expect, if not more. The story, which follows an all-girl teen football team stranded in the Canadian wilderness after a plane crash, has garnered a cult following since its debut in 2021. The narrative splits the timeline between the survivors, who resort to pagan worship and cannibalism in the woods, and their adult selves 25 years later, haunted by the consequences of their actions.
Amid the buzz around Yellowjackets season three, Ricci, who plays Misty Quigley, was awarded a Hollywood Walk of Fame star. Joining her for the ceremony was her husband Mark Hampton and her children, Freddie and Cleopatra. “Mark, you’re the most supportive and loving husband,” the Wednesday star said during a heartfelt speech, before giving a loving shout-out to her kids, per ABC News.
Here’s everything to know about Mark Hampton, who Ricci described as a feminist to The Guardian, and as “the absolute love of my life” on Instagram.
