She told The Ticket: “When James proposed I just thought, ‘Well, I’ve never done that before.’ It seemed like a fun thing to do.” Meanwhile, the stunning actress, who currently resides in Islington, London, with James, insists she couldn’t be happier with how her career is progressing at the moment but admits she wouldn’t be afraid to quit movies if she decides she no longer enjoys it. She explained: “At the moment, I love what I do for a living. There are downsides to every job but as long as I love making films then the drawbacks are worth it. “If the time comes when I don’t love making films then the downsides won’t be worth it and I’ll stop and do something else.”
