Daniel Craig and Rachel Weisz Make Rare Joint Red Carpet Appearance

by

Daniel Craig is putting his bond with wife Rachel Weisz on display.

Daniel and his partner were seen together at a London premiere of his new film, *Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery*, on October 8th, walking hand-in-hand.

At the event, I noticed Daniel Craig looking incredibly sharp in a dark gray suit, a blue shirt, and a playful red and blue striped tie – he even added a crisp white pocket square! Rachel was equally polished, choosing a classic black jacket and pants with a simple white shirt. She kept her look sophisticated with a touch of dark lipstick. They both really nailed that business formal vibe!

Daniel, 57, and Rachel, 55, have been married since 2011 and generally prefer to keep their relationship out of the public eye. They were last seen together publicly over a year ago, at a Loewe fashion show during Paris Fashion Week in September 2024.

The actress from *About a Boy* feels that sharing any more details would be a betrayal of her partner and their relationship.

In a 2015 interview with *MORE* magazine, the Academy Award-winning actor explained the importance of privacy in marriage. They said that while it’s common to share everything with friends when you’re young, a healthy part of growing up – and getting married – is learning to keep some things private. Once you’re married, you no longer need to share every detail with others.

As someone who really values a balanced life, I completely understand Daniel’s approach. He’s been very intentional about the roles he takes, choosing projects carefully so he can prioritize his family. It’s all about finding that sweet spot where you can pursue your career *and* be fully present for the people you love.

He shared in a November interview with the New York Times that he has a six-year-old daughter with Rachel, born in 2018, whose name they’ve kept private. He also explained he wants to spend more time at home with her and reduce his travel compared to previous years.

In their 2020 book, *What Makes a Marriage Last*, Hermann revealed he never expected to share so much laughter in his marriage to Marlo Thomas. He described a commitment to joy as a core part of who she is, and credited this with sustaining their over 20-year partnership. He explained that their marriage thrives because they love each other unconditionally, which he considers true grace.

He also shared a key to their happiness: even after heated arguments, one of them will try to lighten the mood with a joke referencing the very thing they were fighting about. “It’s about finding a way back to connection,” he said, explaining that they’ll cautiously test the waters to see if they can start laughing together again. Once they do, he feels confident they’re on the path to resolving the disagreement.

They’ve managed to maintain a strong marriage without needing big changes, simply by following the advice they received before getting married in 2003. Even with five children, they prioritize weekly date nights and have chosen to avoid buying a television, opting instead for other ways to connect.

Chip says his biggest piece of advice is to passionately pursue the person you love. After twenty years, he still acts like he’s trying to win her over. He jokes that while he can’t guarantee she’ll never be unfaithful, it certainly won’t be because he stopped showing her affection, forgetting special occasions, or failing to tell her he loves her.

Kevin Bacon jokingly advises against taking marriage advice from celebrities, referencing his 36-year relationship. He and his wife have a saying – “Keep the fights clean and the sex dirty” – which they use to quickly shut down any further discussion about their marriage.

In reality, they prioritize resolving conflicts quickly and avoid prolonged arguments. As Bacon’s wife explained, they focus on finding solutions because fighting is unpleasant. Ultimately, they are committed to making things right, as there’s no backup plan; they always want to work through their issues together.

After over 37 years of marriage, the actors have learned how to argue respectfully. As the *Family Ties* alum explained, they avoid bringing up past hurts. “Some couples target their partner’s weaknesses,” he said, “but we don’t do that.” They do argue sometimes, but when one of them says something regrettable, they’ve learned that trying to immediately fix it doesn’t help. Instead, he gives his wife space, and she responds with understanding. She’s learned to think, ‘He said something silly that hurt my feelings, but he’s a good person, and I’m sure he didn’t mean to.’

Speaking on *Today* in December 2024, ahead of their 40th anniversary, Curtis shared that her husband still makes her laugh more than anyone else. She playfully added that he must find something to appreciate about her, even if she isn’t sure what it is.

Neil Patrick Harris believes the key to his long-lasting relationship is accepting that relationships are constantly changing and hard to define. After 21 years together, navigating career changes (including his partner David Burtka’s cookbook release in 2019), raising twins Gideon and Harper, and facing life’s challenges, Harris explained that marriage is never static. He shared that even intimacy evolves, and couples need to find new ways to reconnect – not just physically, but emotionally – as they age. Ultimately, he said, attraction shifts over time, first to a deeper connection with someone’s personality, then back to physical attraction, and so on. He described it as a continuous process of falling in love with each other in different ways, again and again.

The comedic duo jokingly believe their laughter actually extends their lives. It’s not just a feeling – they quantify it. As the actress from *Can You Ever Forgive Me?* explained, whenever they share a particularly hilarious moment, especially one that leaves them breathless, they estimate how much extra time it’s added to their lifespan. She playfully keeps a running total, claiming a good laugh might buy her another two months!

They also limit how long disagreements can last. Following the advice to not go to bed angry, Falcone shared that she once tried letting an argument linger overnight, only to realize she’d forgotten what she was even upset about the next morning. She believes it’s pointless to dissect a problem when everyone is tired or has had something to drink. She’s never had a late-night argument end with a satisfying resolution and a peaceful truce.

Both had been married previously when they met in 1995, and quickly found themselves blending families, each with two children. The *Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist* actor remembers realizing there wasn’t a guide for step-parenting. “I understood right away that the kids already had mothers – and I wasn’t one of them. So I asked myself, what could *I* offer?” she explained. “I decided to be their cheerleader – you can never have too many of those. I never tried to discipline them or teach them right from wrong; they already had parents for that.”

The *Cheers* actor completely agreed. “I think it’s incredibly smart to offer yourself as a friend,” he said. “To say, ‘I won’t discipline you, and I won’t judge you. I’ll just spend time with you and be there for you.’ That’s what you have to do – genuinely be present for them.”

I’ve been following their story for years, and it’s truly inspiring. When civil unions became legal in Britain, David and David were one of the first couples to commit, having a ceremony on December 21st, 2005. They then made it official with a wedding on the very same day nine years later! But you know what they *really* celebrate? The night they first met! It was back in 1993 at a dinner party at David’s flat in Windsor – a friend had thoughtfully put them on the guest list.

What I find most touching, though, is their weekly ritual. Every Saturday, no matter where they are in the world, they write each other a handwritten letter. They’ve been doing it for so long, they estimate it’s around 1,352 letters now! David Furnish says there’s something special and genuine about handwriting, and it’s a chance for them to reflect on the past week and plan for the one ahead. Elton agrees completely – he believes consistent communication is key to a long and happy relationship, and this practice is a big part of what makes theirs work.

After quietly building a 40-year marriage – she even dreamt of meeting him six months before they did – they’ve made a conscious effort to keep their relationship strong, even as their lives have changed. They prioritize their marriage, constantly refocusing on it when needed. If she could offer one piece of advice, it would be to always put that bond first. He passionately affirmed his devotion, saying he’d do anything for her, facing any challenge to ensure she knows his love. He emphasized that if you value a lasting, happy marriage, you must fiercely protect it from anything that could threaten it.

ABC News reporter Roberts admits she doesn’t enjoy casual check-in calls. “I don’t like them,” she said. “If you’re just calling to ask ‘What’s up?’, I really don’t.” However, a close friend who frequently called was someone she couldn’t bring herself to discourage.

Eventually, a friend pointed out that he likely just felt secure and happy knowing she was doing well when he heard her voice. Roberts realized this was a sweet thought she hadn’t considered before. “If it means something to him, then it should mean something to me,” she explained.

Now, she takes a moment to acknowledge her own busy life before asking how he’s doing, letting him know she’s happy to hear from him, and then politely ending the call. She says this small change has made a huge difference for him, and it only takes a couple of minutes to be kind. The couple celebrated their 29th anniversary in September 2024.

Their strong marriage of almost 30 years started building from the very beginning. They recall even small arguments – like when the actor once threw the talk show host’s ring out the window – felt potentially devastating. The talk show host explained that early in a marriage, little disagreements can quickly become major issues, especially with financial stress, career challenges, or the demands of raising children. However, her husband taught her the importance of stepping away and taking a moment to calm down, realizing not every disagreement is a dealbreaker. After years of navigating challenges together, they’re now enjoying the rewards. The actor believes that truly happy couples have overcome difficult times, and that’s something to celebrate.

She describes herself as an introvert, almost a loner, while he’s incredibly outgoing – he jokingly calls himself “the mayor of everywhere.” She’s a bit messy, and he admits to being “a little OCD.” But after being married since 2003, they’ve learned to accept each other’s differences.

That’s the advice the lead actress from *How to Get Away With Murder* says she gives to friends who are getting married. She explains that marriage doesn’t begin at the wedding ceremony. It starts when you look at the person you love and realize they have a habit or trait that might annoy you. You think, ‘This could be difficult,’ but then immediately realize you love them anyway. That’s the true beginning of a marriage.

Maintaining a long-term relationship, like any lasting 50+ years, requires quickly resolving conflicts. Jane Fonda, star of *Grace and Frankie*, often takes the lead in smoothing things over, explaining, “I usually apologize because I love her and can’t stand to think of her feeling alone, even for a few minutes.” She prefers avoiding arguments altogether, and emphasizes that saying something hurtful to a partner leads to regret and even more anger later. It’s a double dose of anger that’s bad for both your health and the relationship itself.

It’s fitting that Jerry, a former judge, says his long marriage to the famous Judge Judy works because he generally lets her have the final say. For her, the key is accepting that you won’t always get your way. Their first marriage ended in 1990 because he wasn’t able to provide the support she needed after her father passed away. When they remarried a year later, she understood he wouldn’t suddenly become a homemaker or take charge of planning events.

She explained simply that unhappiness in relationships often comes from trying to change your partner. “You can try, but they’ll always resent it,” she said. “Don’t marry someone expecting them to be different than they are.”

The actor from *Lost* credits his wife with being the rock of their family. He told TopMob News in April 2025 that her patience and support—especially while he travels for work—have been essential. He described her as ‘fantastic’ and the one who kept things stable for them all these years.

As someone who’s seen a lot, I can tell you that staying grounded is everything. My wife and our two sons are incredible at that – they have endless patience, and honestly, they keep me humble, no matter what life throws my way. It’s a beautiful thing!

“They shape my values,” he added. “It’s great to have that perspective and North Star.”
