Yes, it's true! Actually, Jamie's wife has not seen any of the movies in the Fifty Shades of Grey franchise. On Ellen, Jamie had been asked how Amelia felt about his character, Christian, and he answered, "I guess I like to think she's more in love with me than that guy. She hasn't seen the pictures or anything." Both the guests and Ellen were surprised. However, Amelia has been on every red carpet for the Fifty Shades of Grey premieres.
Jamie said that he doesn't blame his supportive wife for not seeing the movies. In an interview with USA Today, he said, "She doesn't want to watch this. She's well aware that it's pretend, but it's probably not that comfortable to watch." He even admitted that he wasn't all that comfortable watching his own movie, saying, "There's quite a long shot of my [butt]. I wasn't hugely comfortable with it when I watched it." Well, fans didn't have a problem looking at his butt on the big screen!
Hopefully, Jamie and Amelia watched him in his new movie Barb and Star Go to Vista Del Mar together, which debuted on Feb 12. It's a much more hilarious role!
Barb and Star Go to Vista Del Mar can be streamed via premium video on demand, and rented or purchased on Google and Amazon.
