Happy Birthday: Eddie Redmayne

Eddie Redmayne

Born: January 6, 1982 in London, England, UK

Married to: Hannah Bagshawe (15 December 2014 – present) (1 child)

[on how he met his wife] It was an embarrassing evening. Hannah was at a girls’ school near Eton and they invited some of our guys over to do a fashion show for charity. I had to walk across the stage topless – I was this pasty, freckly guy and when I came on the girls in the audience didn’t take much notice of me, but I was followed by the best-looking boy in the school and all the girls erupted in cheers, which was emotionally scarring! I saw Hannah across the room at a party afterwards and she was very beautiful and very funny and she loves the arts and theatre just as I do, so we became friends. I’d finished rehearsals (for “Les Miserables”) and was about to start shooting in a few days and so I said to myself, “I’m going to go to Florence for a quick break and write or do something like that.” Before I went, Hannah and I were on a sort of date – we’d been good friends for 12 years – and we had a wonderful evening and I suddenly said, “You don’t want to come to Florence with me next week, do you?” She said, “That’s absurd, you don’t mean it.” I said, “Yes I do!” So our first proper date was in Florence. That was three years ago and we couldn’t be happier.
