The pregnancy was confirmed in January BEFORE the wedding. The article should thus mention the pregnancy before the wedding, and the date that the pregnancy was confirmed. Wikipedia should not hide the facts. It's very important that information be presented in the correct order. Wikipedia is not Mr. Cumberbatch's PR machine.

Possible new section under "In the media" in the "Personal Life" section. The origin of the cumberbitches lies in Benedict Cumberbatch’s starring role on the BBC series “Sherlock”. Benedict Cumberbatch started trending on twitter twenty minutes after the series premiere in 2010 – “the fandom was instant and visceral" (Zuckerman, 2013). The appeal seems to stem from two things: first, his very strange name and second, his very strange face. He is attractive but he is also very unusual looking. Cumberbatch commented that his face “’is something between an otter and something that people find vaguely attractive, or just an otter, which is vaguely attractive’” (Yuan, 2014). His unusual face could be the reason that so many of the cumberbitches use him as a muse to their artwork.
The “Cumberbitch” name was the first and is the mostly commonly used name for Cumberbatch’s fan base however there has been some division among Cumberbatch fans with alternative names such as “Cumber Collective”, “Cumberbabes” and “Cumberbunnies” (Zuckerman, 2013). Cumberbatch talked about his disapproval of the name “Cumberbitches” in an interview with Ellen Degeneres on January 14, 2015. “I went, ‘Ladies this is wonderful, I’m very flattered, but has this not set feminism back a little bit? Empower yourselves if you’re going to get silly about a guy with a little more high regard, self-regard,’” he said. “They wrote back and said, ‘We didn’t mean any harm to feminism. We were just having a little bit of fun with your name’” (McGrady, 2015).
While Cumberbatch does not have a Twitter page, he does use Reddit to hold Q&A’s with the Cumberbitches. Cumberbatch recognizes that his fandom is central to the internet and says, “I engage with it on my own terms, and people seem to really respond to that because it’s me being me, rather than me going”—he switches to a high-pitched voice—“‘Hi, internet, thank you so much! I love you so much, all the feels, squidgies, LOL! Awkward!’” (Yuan, 2014).

Just wondered if it was worth mentioning that the bug Pseudopygmephorellus Benedictcumberbatchi has been named after Benedict Cumberbatch - by the comedian Dave Gorman in his show "Modern Life Is Goodish" (first broadcast 22nd Oct 2015 on Dave)
Conflicting ( WP:BLP) reports on his relationship with Olivia Poulet as well as Anna James/Anna Jones name, thus cannot be verified as fact ( WP:VERIFY). One can't cherry-pick which reliable source they choose ( WP:NPOV).

Why is there no filmography section for this actor? Literally all the other actors have one. In fact, there's a separate article for it:

The lists there should be added here and then that page deleted so everything can be in 1 place, and this actor's article can be like all the others.

Benedict Cumberbatch has three children. His third child is a boy named Finn, born in January of 2019. Although he has never officially verified the specific details about the third child, he has mentioned his three sons in this interview, [7], and they were mentioned in this article, [8] He was photographed by paparazzi around November 24th, 2020, in London with his wife and his three children, but it seems no major outlets picked up the photos because they know he dislikes pictures of his children being published. They were shared by fans via social media, including this Instagram account here, [9] I don't know why his team has never released a statement about the third child, perhaps because they have never been asked by any of the UK media outlets, but he does exist and should be included in his bio.

Huh, looking through the history of this article... i guess he never saved the text that he typed at youtu.be/374ItP8thgA?t=337 ? Nothing in the contribs either, but at least the account was created (one week before the upload of the video). Also, would the video technically be an independent primary source, in the (unlikely) case that any part of that would eventually make its way into the article? -- 82.79.139.162 ( talk) 23:33, 20 September 2021 (UTC)
Cumberbatch told Marc Maron on the WTF Podcast this week (December 2, 2021) that his half-sister died of cancer "shortly before Christmas", so I guess that means 2020? (time stamp 1:00:35) I can't find any RSS confirming her death at all, and I know that generally WP:INTERVIEWS don't pass the test. But there it is, his voice, saying it out loud for all to hear. Knowing this now it just seems off to read about her in the early life and education section in the present tense. So anyway, I leave it up to consensus. Either somebody can find RSS about it or the consensus can decide on whether to keep referring to her in the present tense or change it. Bearing in mind the podcast will go behind a paywall in a couple of months, I leave it up to you. Kire1975 ( talk) 18:54, 4 December 2021 (UTC)

Devoting an entire section to this seems WP:UNDUE. The Barbados Reparation Campaign's spokesman has said he did not know who Cumberbatch was and has been misquoted [1]. Additionally, a number of the sources used don't actually mention Cumberbatch - for instance one of the sources used dates back to 1912. I would propose condensing the existing three paragraphs down to one paragraph. ITBF ( talk) 22:43, 9 March 2023 (UTC)

Conflicting ( WP:BLP) reports on his relationship with Olivia Poulet as well as Anna James/Anna Jones name, thus cannot be verified as fact ( WP:VERIFY). One can't cherry-pick which reliable source they choose ( WP:NPOV).

About your Third Opinion request: The request for a Third Opinion in this dispute has been removed/rejected because Third Opinion, like all other forms of moderated content dispute resolution requires thorough discussion on the article talk page. A single posting by each disputant here, does not constitute a discussion, much less a thorough or extensive discussion. If you come to a stalemate after thorough discussion, you may refile at 3O or at some other type of dispute resolution. Regards, TransporterMan ( TALK) 19:50, 27 December 2015 (UTC)

Cumberbatch has been cast as Thomas Edison in the upcoming film "The Current War" [3], with filming slated to being December 2016. [4] Carola Clark ( talk) 21:56, 2 November 2016 (UTC)
Cumberbatch will return in his iconic role of Sherlock Holmes in the BBC series "Sherlock" season 4 on January 1, 2017. [5] Carola Clark ( talk) 21:56, 2 November 2016 (UTC)
Cumberbatch set to star and also produce movie adaptation of british 1939 novel "Male Rogue" written by Geoffrey Household. [6] Carola Clark ( talk) 21:56, 2 November 2016 (UTC)
Why is there no filmography section for this actor? Literally all the other actors have one. In fact, there's a separate article for it:
/info/en/?search=List_of_Benedict_Cumberbatch_performances
The lists there should be added here and then that page deleted so everything can be in 1 place, and this actor's article can be like all the others.

The next time April Fool's rolls around, all instances of the name Benedict Cumberbatch or parts of the name should be changed to a misspelling. Examples include: Beveldink Chamberhatch, Butterscotch Creamermatch, and Bennysnoop Crinkledrink.

Cumberbatch's ancestor owned.slaves in Barbados 2A00:23C5:ED93:7300:342C:11E4:914A:2E22 ( talk) 02:22, 15 June 2020 (UTC)
Benedict Cumberbatch has three children. His third child is a boy named Finn, born in January of 2019. Although he has never officially verified the specific details about the third child, he has mentioned his three sons in this interview, [7], and they were mentioned in this article, [8] He was photographed by paparazzi around November 24th, 2020, in London with his wife and his three children, but it seems no major outlets picked up the photos because they know he dislikes pictures of his children being published. They were shared by fans via social media, including this Instagram account here, [9] I don't know why his team has never released a statement about the third child, perhaps because they have never been asked by any of the UK media outlets, but he does exist and should be included in his bio.

Huh, looking through the history of this article... i guess he never saved the text that he typed at youtu.be/374ItP8thgA?t=337 ? Nothing in the contribs either, but at least the account was created (one week before the upload of the video). Also, would the video technically be an independent primary source, in the (unlikely) case that any part of that would eventually make its way into the article? -- 82.79.139.162 ( talk) 23:33, 20 September 2021 (UTC)
Cumberbatch told Marc Maron on the WTF Podcast this week (December 2, 2021) that his half-sister died of cancer "shortly before Christmas", so I guess that means 2020? (time stamp 1:00:35) I can't find any RSS confirming her death at all, and I know that generally WP:INTERVIEWS don't pass the test. But there it is, his voice, saying it out loud for all to hear. Knowing this now it just seems off to read about her in the early life and education section in the present tense. So anyway, I leave it up to consensus. Either somebody can find RSS about it or the consensus can decide on whether to keep referring to her in the present tense or change it. Bearing in mind the podcast will go behind a paywall in a couple of months, I leave it up to you. Kire1975 ( talk) 18:54, 4 December 2021 (UTC)

In the "Personal Life" section, change "Cumberbatch also follows a vegan diet.[211]" To "Cumberbatch followed a vegan diet for 18 months." Or delete the line altogether. The source given [211] is from 2018 and outdated.
Source: interview Esquire November 2021:
'"I was for about 18 months,” he confirms. “I applaud people who are vegan and I enjoyed my journey with it, but it [non-vegan food] just crept back into my life.”'

Devoting an entire section to this seems WP:UNDUE. The Barbados Reparation Campaign's spokesman has said he did not know who Cumberbatch was and has been misquoted [1]. Additionally, a number of the sources used don't actually mention Cumberbatch - for instance one of the sources used dates back to 1912. I would propose condensing the existing three paragraphs down to one paragraph. ITBF ( talk) 22:43, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
