31-year-old actress, singer and songwriter Amelia Warner had a string of television roles in TV dramas such as “Casualty” (1986) before making it big with Lorna Doone (2000) (TV) and the film Quills (2000), which both came out in Christmas 2000. According to her IMDb bio, she was discovered after she and her friends devised and acted out a play in Covent Garden where she was spotted by an agent and won a place at London Royal Court Theatre’s Youth program.
But her talent could also be inherited, being the only child of British actress Annette Ekblom and actor Alun Lewis; her parents split when she was very young and she stayed living with her mother. She attended the Royal Masonic School for Girls, later at age 16 the College of Fine Arts. She also studied for a while at a college in Belsize Park.
Now she is more focused on her music and is a signed artist to Island Records performing under the name Slow Moving Millie, in fact both her twitter and Facebook accounts can be found under that name.
The singer tied the knot just a few months back this year! Her husband is Irish model and actor Jamie Dornan also 31. The newlywed confirmed this past June that they are expecting their first child together. But the singer has nothing to worry about and should be in good hands over the coming months, with both Jamie’s father Jim and step-mum Samina respected gynecology and obstetrics consultants in his native Northern Ireland. The happy news came just three months after Jamie and Amelia married in a quaint ceremony carried out at a sprawling country house in picturesque Somerset on April 27.
Prior to meeting Amelia the actor enjoyed a two-year relationship with Keira Knightley before they parted ways in 2005. And Amelia was also linked to another Irish actor.
She and Colin Farrell were together back in 2011.There was speculation that they married and she later set the record straight revealing to the British Sun the marriage ceremony was never legal.
“We had a ceremony on a beach in Tahiti that was by no means legal and we knew it wasn’t… It was just a thing we did on holiday. We went shark feeding and then we did that. We booked them both on the activities desk at the hotel.”
Now a married lady, Amelia and husband Jamie certainly have the glow of parents-to-be plus Jamie is currently hot property ever since Charlie Hunnam dropped out of Fifty Shades of Grey and Warner’s hubby became the saucy role’s front runner!
Do you think her husband is a good match?
Congrats to the gorgeous mom to be!
