Obviously, the "Cumberbitches"  the Sherlock actor's rabid fan base  can't be happy to hear this news, especially since the new fiance will likely be accompanying him on his is press tour for his upcoming film The Imitation Game. So who's the ultimate Cumberbitch who stole Cumberbatch?, Her name is Sophie Hunter, and  like the too-good-to-be-true Amal Alamuddin before her  she's impressive.
