Paul Bettany
He's a man caught in a scandalous love triangle with two sisters. Paul Bettany, who found his true love, Jennifer Connelly, on the set of "A Beautiful Mind," now stars as a tormented British husband having an affair in the gripping 1930's love story, "The Heart of Me."
It was a role that made the shy, buttoned-up Brit unbutton a few for some steamy bedroom scenes with co-star Helena Bonham Carter. Bettany says, "It's an odd feeling being naked in front of lots of people you don't know."
So we just had to ask polite and proper Paul what's the secret to staying relaxed during those scenes of passion. He says, "I've heard some frightening experiences people have had where they've become, what's the gentile way of saying, aroused, I suppose. I've never experienced that."
But we're guessing Paul's next real life project will be an experience of a lifetime. Paul and Jennifer are on baby watch. Paul says his glowing wife has got the perfect recipe for a healthy pregnancy. He says, "She's super fit, swims, and goes to the gym."
It's easy to see how Jennifer captured Paul's heart and mind.
