Naomi Watts & Billy Crudup Pack on the PDA at Venice Film Festival

This was the night for Naomi Watts and Billy Crudup to show off their love.

In a charming display, the actress from Mulholland Drive happily exchanged some affectionate kisses with her husband during the red carpet event for his movie Jay Kelly at the Venice Film Festival on August 28th.

At the debut of the George Clooney-fronted production, Naomi, wearing an elegant Valentino dress adorned with floral beadwork, clutched Billy’s hand and affectionately kissed him on the cheek.

During that instance, the actor known for Almost Famous sported a cream-colored tuxedo jacket with a black bowtie, and he was beaming with happiness during the private encounter.

Having Naomi, aged 56, by Billy’s side during his significant accomplishments has been equally as rewarding as receiving the recognition himself. When the 57-year-old was awarded Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series for The Morning Show at the 2024 Emmys, he paid tribute to his wife during his acceptance speech.

He expressed his delight while on stage, surrounded by his beautiful companion, his wife who is an immigrant and delivered an outstanding performance this year, earning a nomination. She also has entrepreneurial skills, and it’s wonderful to have her by my side.

Simultaneously, Naomi (mother to Sasha, 18, and Kai, 16, with her former partner Liev Schreiber) expressed her pride for Billy by posting on Instagram following his victory. She wrote, “I’m so proud of you, Billy.

For Naomi and Billy, who is a father to their son William (aged 21, born to his ex Mary-Louise Parker), stepping into love again after so many years was a challenging prospect, yet it proved to be a rewarding jump.

The actress, who wed the Watchmen star in 2023, expressed during an interview on Live with Kelly and Mark in January 2024 that it’s never too late to find someone special. She emphasized that they discovered each other later in life, making their relationship quite extraordinary.

In this new phase of her life, it was the strength of their relationship that proved essential in helping Naomi maintain balance during her menopausal journey.

On “The Drew Barrymore Show” last January, she shared that he truly is an extraordinary individual. During a time when she was overwhelmed by embarrassment, she found him to be understanding, compassionate, and empathetic. It seemed as though he encouraged her to embrace this situation wholeheartedly.
