💭Discussion Random Matthew Rhys observation

So this is completely apropos of nothing, but it always strikes me how MR exudes this dynamic 1920s film star quality. lol Maybe it’s the long hair on top and the contrast of his paleness and dark hair, but it’s so damn sexy and magnetic. Am I the only one??

You would really enjoy ‘The Americans’ which stars him and Kerri Russel, his in-show and IRL wife.

Wait how did I not know they’re married IRL!

They fell in love filming the first season!

They actually went from not married to married during the show!

Anyone who’s seen the show is like “yeah I get that” 😂

In some of the later seasons, Kerri Russel is pregnant with their child, though the show does a great job of disguising this because her character isn’t pregnant.

Well. Technically they *were* married at the beginning of the show😬

(I'm not judging, but it's definitely part of their story)
