Robert Redford has married his long-time girlfriend in a private ceremony in Germany, say reports.

The Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid star is understood to have tied the knot with Sibylle Szaggars at the luxurious Louis C. Jacob Hotel in Hamberg on Saturday night.

Speaking to People, Pastor Frank Englebrecht confirmed that he had presided over the "very intimate ceremony" in front of around 30 friends and family.

Redford began dating the 51-year-old artist in 1996 and they became engaged last March. They currently live at his 5,500-acre ranch in Utah, near the location of his annual Sundance independent film festival.

It is the second marriage for both Redford and Szaggars, with local newspaper Hamburger Abendblatt reporting that they will hold an "official" wedding party in Mexico in September.
