    The Bizarre History Behind Kate Winslet's Latest Marriage

    To a guy named Ned Rocknroll.

    Sources have confirmed to People that Kate Winslet married Ned Rocknroll earlier this month, at Virgin magnate Richard Branson's private island.

    First of all, yes: his last name is really Rocknroll. Well, legally.

    Also: he's Richard Branson's nephew.

    The pair first hooked up in August 2011, when they were both guests at Branson's home on Necker Island.

    While they were on the island, there was a terrible fire at the house.

    It was also revealed that Winslet carried Branson's 90-year-old mother out of the burning house.

    A few weeks after they got back, they started dating.

    Leonardo DiCaprio walked Kate down the aisle.

    Rocknroll now works for his uncle at Virgin, doing something related to marketing and/or astronauts.
