Legally married to a non-Muslim man, but never done nikah according to Islam. Is the marriage valid?

I’m legally married to a non-muslim man, but I refuse to live in the same house with him until he becomes a Muslim and until we marry according to Islamic law. Please keep in mind I also keep this marriage a secret from my family as my parents refused his proposal even though I accepted it. Everybody thinks that we are only engaged. We got married because we loved each other and he promised to learn Islam.
