The wedding of the century is at last upon us as Gladys Russell (Taissa Farmiga) prepares to marry the Duke of Buckingham on The Gilded Age. But Gladys isn't exactly thrilled about her fate, so much so that she walks down the aisle with tears running down her face beneath her veil.

In an interview with Cosmopolitan, actress Taissa Farmiga weighed in on her character's journey, saying Gladys didn't have enough life experience to really know what she wanted in a partner in the first place.

SPOILER ALERT! This story contains details from Sunday’s episode of The Gilded Age on HBO. Bertha, 1, Gladys 0: Mama Russell finally saw her dream come true for her only daughter in the latest episode of the Julian Fellowes drama.
