Their relationship moved quickly, and in December 2010, during the Christmas holidays, the couple secretly tied the knot in Australia. Hemsworth later mentioned in an interview with Good Morning Britain that the decision to marry happened spontaneously because it "just felt right."
In January 2012, Elsa announced that she was expecting their first child. The couple was thrilled and didn’t mind whether the baby would be a boy or a girl. In May 2012, they welcomed their daughter, India Rose, into the world. Chris revealed in an interview with USA Today that they chose the name "India" because of their love for the country.

Despite their growing family and busy careers, the couple faced challenges, particularly in balancing their personal and professional lives. In October 2017, Chris spoke to GQ Australia about the difficulties they experienced, admitting that they didn’t see much of each other for a while due to their commitments. He acknowledged that Elsa made significant sacrifices in her career to care for their family.
In December 2020, Chris and Elsa celebrated ten years of marriage. Chris shared a heartfelt slideshow of photos on social media, expressing his excitement for the future and his love for Elsa.
Their love for each other and their family continues to shine through in public appearances.
