Claire Danes Thinks Everyone Should Get Married
Posted on December 04, 2009 at 3:26 PM
Claire Danes thinks everyone should get married. The actress – who wed her ‘Evening’ co-star Hugh Dancy at a secret ceremony in France in September – is content with her relationship and believes other people should tie the knot in order to be as happy as she is.
“It feels wonderful. I’m recommending marriage. It’s still very new but there’s a kind of deep security that I’m really enjoying. My parents have been happily married since they were 21, so I have been lucky to have them as a model.”
I’m sure everyone who’s been married for a few months would agree with this statement right? LOL!
The 30-year-old actress is currently starring in ‘Me and Orson Welles’ alongside Zac Efron, where she plays career-hungry production assistant Sonja Jones, and admits she was in awe of the opinionated character.
“I admire her focus and her determination to succeed. I think it’s very brave for a woman to be so honest about wanting to do well and being hungry for success in any era, but especially then when women have few choices.”
While being in awe of her on-stage persona’s drive, Claire has started enjoying life more as she’s got older.
“I’m happier than ever. I have a deeper understanding of who I am and I’m more comfortable in myself. I know my needs and I know how they can be met. I hope that trend continues.
“But it’s still a bit of a shock when I’m at the gym on the treadmill and I have to punch in my information and I go, ‘Oh God, I’m 30′. It feels very old, but I like adulthood a lot.”
No matter how many times I’m asked, I always say the wrong age and my husband has to correct my mistake. It’s like I can’t process I am 32. So I completely understand.

I have problems remembering my age. I keep thinking I am 23. I was devastated when I found out I am actually turning 25 in 2 weeks.
‘s ok
*little tap on your back*
They are such an adorable couple!

No gay marriage but you support homewreckers? hmmmmm
I would be very reluctant to call any marriage secure, much less a Hollywood one.
NO KIDDING! She just another Hollywood Homewrecker. She needs to get off her high horse. BTW – Billy Cudrup and Mary Louise Parker weren’t married only pregnant and together for 8 years. HO!
It seems odd to me that someone who had an affair with a married man would consider marriage a “secure” place.
That is exactly what I was thinking! Having broken up another relationship this is a surprising comment for her to make.
Exactly what I was thinking.
Oh, she’s had a husband before. But it wasn’t hers.
the security of marriage…hm, be careful claire you are walking on thin ice….
I’m happy for her, and it certainly looks like marriage agrees with her. She was such a pretty teen, but for much of her 20s I thought she was *way* too thin, gaunt even. That really took away a lot of her beauty. She looks beautiful, healthy, and very happy, better than she has in years. We should all be so lucky!
damn 30′s ..nah , it’s all good
haha i keep on forgetting my age too….and i havent even reached my 30′s lol.
they make a pretty looking couple.
Ditto. I’d like to see her re-state that quote in 5-10 years.
I was in 5 weddings between 1999 and 2002–4 are divorced–the other one is cool. Stay single–less drama–you cannot fully trust anyone–
