Frank Skinner Marries Longtime Partner Cath Mason After 24 Years and 4 Rejections

After 24 years together and four rejected proposals, comedian Frank Skinner has finally tied the knot with his longtime girlfriend, Cath Mason. The couple, who share a 12-year-old son, Buzz, opted for a super-private wedding with no guests—just their son as a witness.

Why did it take so long? And why did Cath say “no” four times before finally saying “yes”? 

Frank Skinner and Cath Mason’s Low-Key Wedding

  • A Secret Ceremony on the Stairs

    Skinner, 68, revealed on his podcast Frank Off The Radio that they got married in a simple ceremony at Camden Town Hall in London. Instead of a traditional wedding hall, they exchanged vows on the stairs—with only their son Buzz present.

    • No guests, no fuss: Skinner joked, “Don’t be offended—we didn’t invite anyone!”
    • No white dress: Cath wore a flowery dressinstead of a traditional wedding gown.
    • No church, no rings: They skipped religious vows, and Cath kept her last name.

    The Perfect Wedding Song

    Instead of a classic wedding march, the couple walked in to “Lie Dream of a Casino Soul” by The Fall—a post-punk band that meant a lot to them in their early days.

Why Did Cath Say No Four Times Before?

  • Skinner had proposed four times before Cath finally agreed. In past interviews, he shared possible reasons:

    1. Bad Experience with Marriage:Cath’s parents divorced, making her skeptical about weddings.
    2. No Need for Tradition: She didn’t want a big party, a church wedding, or even a ring.
    3. “Why Fix What Isn’t Broken?”After 24 happy years together, marriage didn’t feel urgent.

    “Maybe she doesn’t like me as much as I think!” Skinner joked in 2024.

Why Get Married Now?

Skinner didn’t give a deep reason—just a funny one:

“Maybe I’ve got too much money—I’ll give her half in about five years!”

He also denied it was for tax benefits, saying, “I’m not planning on dying anytime soon.”
