“Roundabout 5000 days ago, this guy and I signed a WB contract and said ‘I do’ to embodying Ed and Lorraine Warren. Today, he wraps,” Farmiga wrote on Instagram on Nov. 21. “I have another 12 hours of laughter and insanity with him and then abruptly, he will walk off set, peel off sweat soaked demonologist garb, shave off his side burns, flash that dazzling smile and bid our fake marriage adieu.”

“Yeahโ€ฆ I got them feels today,” she continued, concluding, “It was a match made in heaven, PWilz. A hell of an era. Hereโ€™s to 12 years. I cherish you, @thereelpatrickwilson @theconjuring.”

James Wan, who directed the first Conjuring film, shared his feelings in the comment section as well, writing, “Aww, Mom, Dad!! So proud of you both! You guys are the best. Will always be grateful to you for saying yes to our first little film.”

Farmiga’s husband, musician Renn Hawkey, chimed in, “Heโ€™s one hell of a guy. An all around great human. Infectious good energy that lights everyone up that he encounters. So glad he was by your side fighting evil!” Farmiga has been married to Hawkey since 2008, while Wilson tied the knot with fellow actress Dagmara Domiล„czyk in 2005.
