It was love at first sight, apparently! In an interview on Irish TV show Face to Face, Dornan said that he already “fancied” Warner before they met in person at a mutual friend’s get-together.

In another conversation on The Late Late Show with James Corden, he added: “She’d been an actor so I knew who she was. I always fancied her, and we were doing karaoke and … a friend of ours said, ‘Listen, Amelia Warner’s at a house party up by Los Feliz and she’s single.’ I literally dropped the mic and was like, you know, ran for the hills.”

They began dating in 2010 and married in 2013.

As an actress, the 41-year-old has starred in films and TV shows including Aristocrats, Quills (with Kate Winslet), Lorna Doone, Waking the Dead, Nine Lives (with Paris Hilton), Stoned and The Echo, to name a few.

However it seems her main focus these days is her work as a neoclassical composer, creating film scores for Mary Shelley, Wild Mountain Thyme and Mr. Malcolm’s List among others.

“She doesn’t want to watch this,” Dornan told USA Today in 2015. “She wants to support me and my work. I won’t be able to sit there myself. I am not going to put any pressure on her either way. It’s her decision. She’s well aware that it’s pretend, but it’s probably not that comfortable to watch.”

“There’s quite a long shot of my [butt],” he added. “I wasn’t hugely comfortable with it when I watched it. That’s my bum. Still my bum. Wow.”

Before tying the knot with Dornan, Warner was reportedly in a relationship with another famous Irishman.

Per The Guardian, she met Colin Farrell at the premiere of Quills, and they said “I do” on a beach in Tahiti eight months later – however, it wasn’t a legally binding ceremony, according to an interview she gave to the British press in 2011.

“We didn’t actually get married – it’s not actually true … We had a ceremony on a beach in Tahiti that was by no means legal and we knew it wasn’t,” she explained.

Dornan dated Keira Knightley in the past.
