He Stepped Back

[Blind Gossip] This Oscar-nominated actress is married to a man who is very accomplished in his own right.

On the red carpet, reporters would interview her… but always wanted to talk to him more!

The imbalance bothered them both.

He wanted all the attention on her for The Oscars, so they decided not to do the red carpet together. That’s actually the modus operandi now. I can count on one hand how many red carpets they’ve done together in the past five years.

When someone saw them together after the ceremony and went to ask him a question, he immediately stepped back and motioned to [Actress], saying, “Actually, this is HER night!” I thought that was rather sweet and gracious of him.

We also hear that when he did this, his wife was absolutely beaming!

So if you hear speculation about the state of their relationship based on them not walking the red carpet together, now you know what’s really going on.

    Actress: Rachel Weisz, who’s won before but was nominated for “The Favourite”
    Actor: Daniel Craig, who would draw Bond-based press attention

    Rachel Weisz
    Daniel Craig

    And yes it’s smart, it shows that hey both respect each other’s careers

    Rachel Weisz&Daniel Craig. I was not sure because of the “5years”comment and an now suprised how long they are married now. Almost 8 years, and this blind says they still like each other. Nice to hear.

    Rachel Weisz and Daniel Craig?

    Definitely the best way to handle it if it means she’s not getting the attention/recognition she deserves!

    It shows he isn’t threatened by his wife’s success. I love them as a couple!

  25. aaaSam says

    I have no idea who this is but it’s cute regardless. It’s refreshing to hear about people in Hollywood who aren’t full of themselves.

    Rachel Weisz and Daniel Craig. I love this!! What a loving, supportive husband. And funny – I’m much more interested in anything she’s in than he is. But I get it since he’s famous for being Bond among all of his other work.

    Rachel Weisz and Daniel Craig.

    He hates media attention anyway so this works out well for both of them. But it’s great to see how sweet about it he is. Daniel really seems so in love with Rachel.

  54. Jelly Drop says

    Rachel Weisz
    Husband is Daniel Craig

    Very smart. You could imagine people would always ask him about Bond related things.

  57. Poppycorn144 says

    Rachel Weisz and Daniel Craig

    Yes, she was nominated so it was her night. Cool and caring husband.

  60. nopebope says

    Rachel Weisz and Daniel Craig.

    Very sweet of him, they seem suited to each other compared to the creep she was previously married to.

  63. Hannahhhh says

    I can’t wait to find out who this might be, I don’t know but it’s a change to read something heartwarming 🙂

  64. cheezhead says

    Rachel Weiss the favorite
    Daniel Craig, James Bond
    gracious. It’s her night to shine. He can always get asked about the new bond movie when it comes out. Not a lot men would do that.

  67. thisgirl1 says

    Actress: Rachel Weisz

    Husband: Daniel Craig

    [Optional] Smart way to handle things? I think it’s very sweet.

  68. ravenglass says

    Actress: Rachel Weisz

    Husband: Daniel Craig

    Yes. I like how he handled it. Unlike, Leslie Bibb, who hogged the camera & answered all questions directed at Sam Rockwell. So loud & annoying.

  76. ILUVCA4evr says

    Actress:Nicole Kidman

    Husband: Keith Urban

    [Optional] Smart way to handle things? YES! Its very healthy to a relationship to acknowledge each other’s contributions and also to let other know you acknowledge and appreciate them as well.
    I’ve seen Nicole at music awards with Keith and she steps back and lets him have the limelight there.

  77. Bubbiek says

    Rachel Weisz and Daniel Craig. It’s a good idea if they don’t mind the speculation about their relationship

  85. bec215d says

    Daniel Craig & Rachel Weiss. Craig would especially be of interest with his final Bond performance coming up, but on top of that Weiss is comparatively not very charismatic in interviews (which has nothing to do with her performances)… Good for him – and good for her for not apologizing for wanting and deserving that moment in the spotlight for her work.

  97. mpizzle says

    Rachel Weisz and Daniel Craig.

    So he should! It’s what Justin Timberlake should have done at the GGs the year Jessica was nominated and he wasn’t!

    • extra paws says

      I watched the video of the Timberlake/Jessica interview. Yup, all about him. She kept smiling, stayed professional and looked adoringly at him. I hope she educated him when they got home.

  98. dadiegirl says

    Rachel Weisz and Daniel Craig

    Gracious of him and I like them together. I hope those two kids make it!

  100. JGibson says

    Rachel Weizs and Daniel Craig which I only found out now they are married

    I think it’s a clever and respectful way considering how intrusive these interviewers are

  101. yashenny says

    Rachel Weisz and Daniel Craig? She was nominated and he probably didn’t want to be hounded by all the Bond questions.

  104. gossipzillaisback says

    Obviously Rachel Weisz and Daniel Craig, which are literally the only couple that fits the clues by far.

    I think it’s very smart of them (and very nice of him). He doesn’t need the publicity, while it is indeed “her night”.

    • KatarinaJ says

      Wow, so all the rumors about them being on the rocks is actually the opposite. His being a gracious, caring husband. Always hated when Justin Timberlake was so obviously ME ME ME on the red carpet after Biel got her nods for THE SINNER. That being said, she MUST be a boring interview since she had a huge role this year and they STILL want to talk to him?
