Vicky McClure and Jonny Owen’s story
The newlyweds first met while filming Svengali – a movie that Jonny directed and wrote – back in 2012.
Speaking on BBC Radio Wales, Vicky revealed that she spoke to Jonny for the first time over the phone.
According to Nation Cymru , she said: “When we first spoke it was on the phone. I came off the phone and I just knew. I’ve never loved anyone more than I’ve loved Jonny.”
Jonny added: “I remember we were walking down Southbank (in London) on a weekend break from filming (Svengali) and we were going to the Tate Modern and she turned to me and asked me if I fancied going to the pub instead.
“And I was like, well, yeah! I thought, ‘What a girl’, I think we almost simultaneously both went, ‘I fancy you!’ It just tumbled from there and we haven’t been apart since that moment.
“I was going through a divorce at the time and I’d been separated for seven or eight months. And I think we went from ‘I like you’ in the pub to ‘I love you’ in about 10 seconds.”
