Matthew Macfadyen shows off his portly frame on family day out 

He famously wooed wife Keeley Hawes on the set of Spooks - but Matthew Macfadyen seems even more of a man nowadays if these pictures are anything to go by.
Heartthrob Matthew, 36, certainly appeared to have piled on the pounds as he and his wife walked around a family fete with their two children near their home in west London at the weekend.
Ashes to Ashes star Keeley, 35, however didn't seem to mind that there was more of him to love - and even joined him in chomping on greasy burgers.

He's just finished filming alongside Ray Stevenson, Luke Evans and Logan Lerman as the swashbuckling buddies Porthos, Aramis and D'Artagnan - and maybe he needed a bit more beef to buckle his swash.
Or maybe he's let himself go a bit and got stuck into his grub after months of working out and being in peak condition - as well as enduring weeks of very physical stunts while filming the movie - like Gladiator star Russell Crowe.

Oscar-winner Christoph Waltz also stars as Musketeer nemesis Cardinal Richelieu and a buxom Milla Jovovich as his partner in crime, the evil M'lady De Winter.
Orlando Bloom meanwhile plays the evil British Duke of Buckingham.
According to the Internet Movie Database, the synopsis is thus: 'The hot-headed young D'Artagnan along with three former legendary but now down on their luck Musketeers must unite and defeat a beautiful double agent and her villainous employer from seizing the French throne and engulfing Europe in war.'

Keeley meanwhile is taking a bit of time off to spend with her family after recent stints on the West End and in the BBC1 remake of Upstairs Downstairs last year.
As well as her children with Macfadyen, she has a teenage son Myles from her first marriage to cartoonist Spencer McCallum.
She married Macfadyen in October 2004 and their first child, Maggie, was born two months later. Their second child, Ralph, was born in September 2006.   
The Three Musketeers opens on 14 October.
