Keeley Hawes: My husband's fine if I snog other blokes

Actress says actor Matthew Macfayden doesn't get jealous of her on-screen romances

Keeley Hawes plays a woman 10 years older than herself in Mutual Friends

Ashes To Ashes star Keeley Hawes says she and husband Matthew Macfadyen don't mind that they have to kiss other people for a living.

Keeley claims they’re both OK with love scenes because they both get to do it.

‘Being an actor, he knows it goes with the territory,’ she says.

‘Matthew got the very beautiful Keira Knightley when he filmed Pride and Prejudice, I get the lovely Marc Warren in Mutual Friends!’

But Keeley, 32, says their jobs can seem peculiar at times.

‘It does make for some interesting tea-time conversations,’ she tells Take It Easy. ‘What did you do today, dear? Oh nothing much, just made love to my co-star in a toilet!’
