During his interview with Kjersti Flaa, Dornan shared that he has no issues with his wife not wanting to watch Fifty Shades of Grey. He said that he would not be telling his wife anything, and it was her decision to make. “I’d understand if she didn’t want to, and I’d understand if she wants to watch it as well. But I’m not gonna tell her what to do?” Jamie Dornan said.
Jamie Dornan and Amelia Warner started seeing each other in 2010, and after dating for three years, the couple got married in 2013. They have three daughters, Dulcie, Elva, and Alberta, and prefer keeping their personal life out of the limelight.
