Rachel Weisz and Daniel Craig’s 15-Year Love Story: From Stage to Screen
Rachel Weisz and Daniel Craig have shared a private yet enduring relationship for over 15 years. The couple first crossed paths in the mid-1990s but only reconnected years later on a film set. Their bond has remained strong, despite keeping much of their personal life out of the spotlight.
The pair initially met in 1994 while working on Les Grandes Horizontales at London’s National Theatre Studio. More than a decade passed before they reunited on the set of Dream House, directed by Jim Sheridan. This time, their collaboration led to romance.
Their wedding took place quietly in New York in June 2011, with just four guests present. Weeks later, they appeared together at a Cinema Society screening in the city, marking their first public outing as a couple. By December, they made their official red carpet debut at the Madrid premiere of The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo. In 2013, Weisz and Craig starred opposite each other again, this time on Broadway in Harold Pinter’s Betrayal. The production marked Weisz’s first appearance on the Broadway stage. Five years later, in 2018, she announced in The New York Times that they were expecting their first child together. Craig has rarely spoken about their relationship, though he once told British GQ he was ‘in love’ and ‘very happy’—while keeping further details private. Weisz, meanwhile, has occasionally shared light-hearted glimpses of their life, including revealing on The Graham Norton Show that she owns a novelty car visor reading ‘Mrs. Daniel Craig’.
The couple’s relationship has spanned theatre, film, and family life. Though they guard their privacy, their rare public moments and professional collaborations have kept them in the spotlight. After 15 years together, their connection remains as strong as ever.
