Anne Hathaway has millions of fans thanks to her expansive acting catalog, but her husband, Adam Shulman, has always felt like home.
“I knew from the second I met him that he was the love of my life,” Hathaway told Harper’s Bazaar UK in February 2013, less than one year after they got married.
The Princess Diaries star recalled telling a mutual friend of theirs, “I’m going to marry that man,” soon after they first crossed paths. “I think he thought I was a little nuts, which I am a bit, but I’m also nice,” she teased.
Hathaway — who announced in June 2026 that she is expecting her third baby with Shulman — isn’t the only one who is happy she met her match in the jewelry designer.
Her Devil Wears Prada 2 costar Emily Blunt told Elle in March 2017 that Shulman “has been Annie’s greatest achievement in many ways. He’s sort of home away from the storm of fame that she lives with.”
Blunt gushed, “Being with the right person has been a major part of her growth, but I don’t think she cares as much anymore. That’s something both of us feel now: Who f***ing cares? You get to a point where the stuff that you used to sweat just doesn’t matter. It’s a great place to be.”
