Saoirse Ronan’s husband Jack Lowden has opened up on what it’s like being married to someone else that it’s in the limelight.
The duo, whose low-key romance is rumored to have begun after they both starred in the 2018 flick “Mary Queen of Scots,” recently tied the knot in a hush-hush ceremony in Scotland.
Ahead of exchanging "I dos" in Edinburgh in July, the power couple took in the sights and sounds of the legendary Glastonbury musical festival.
Jack, however, admitted to The Guardian in a new interview he had to be "quite boring" throughout Glasto as he was prepping for his lead in "The Fifth Step," a play about a new member of Alcoholics Anonymous and his more experienced sponsor.
It didn't prevent him from sharing this sweet snap of him and 'Sersh':

Later in his interview with The Guardian, Jack was asked if it's difficult being married to another actor.
"No, being with an actor is wonderful, because we understand each other," he said.
"We’re quite odd people, actors. We’re strange animals.
"So it just makes complete sense, and I understand why there are loads of other actors with actors… And it’s really useful for running lines, rather than with, like, your mum.
"Is it hard to maintain privacy? I don’t know. I think I’ve been very lucky in that I’ve had quite a slow-building kind of career, and I’ve been allowed to grow up and get things wrong.
"I can’t imagine what it must be like, if you’re 18, 19 and you’re in a huge show and all of a sudden everybody wants to know everything about you."

Not only are Saoirse and Jack both actors, but they also collaborated as producers through their outfit Arcade Pictures on the screen adaptation of Amy Liptrot's memoir "The Outrun."
Perhaps not surprisingly, Saoirse is already generating Oscar buzz for her lead role in the film.

Meanwhile, Jack went on to reveal that having been born in England but raised in Scotland, he considers himself “100% Scottish, for sure.”
“My parents are Scottish. It’s where it was brought up. It’s where I was made,” he told The Guardian.
“And it’s true that my first screen role was an Irn-Bru advert. I did it when I was 18 at drama school and I think it was played during half-time in the Champions League final or something. I think of it like national service.”
In similar fashion, Saoirse was born in New York but was raised in Co Carlow in Ireland since she was a child.
