“It was pretty intense, I believed by that point he was the love of my life. Maybe that’s because I am deeply romantic, or I’m an actress, or I have strong faith as well, but I just believed, ‘Oh, OK, here he is,'” she explained.

The two married a year later and have two daughters, Faith, eight, and 10-year-old Sunday, and Keith praised the Australian actress for her role as a mother and a wife.

“I could sum up Nic as a wife, mother and human being in three words: She’s all heart!” he gushed.

And they looked as smitten as ever at the Golden Globe awards, putting on a typically loved-up display on the red carpet.

The couple spent Christmas with a “big crowd” in Nicole’s native Australia and had a great time catching up with the Aquaman star’s extended family.

She previously said: “We usually go to Sydney for Christmas. My mother lives there, but as I live in America and my sister lives in Singapore, Momma needs us to go back regularly. It’s a big crowd.”
