Yahoo News Newlyweds Saoirse Ronan and Jack Lowden Make a Rare Appearance Together at the Emmys
Saoirse Ronan and Jack Lowden met while filming Mary Queen of Scots back in 2018. In the six years since, they have remained remarkably low-key, making practically no public appearances together. This summer, they quietly tied the knot in Scotland.
Now, they're making perhaps their biggest public appearance together yet: Ronan and Lowden walked the Emmys red carpet together. Lowden is nominated for best supporting actor in a drama for his role in Slow Horses, his first Emmy nomination, and Ronan is in attendance tonight to support him.
For the occasion, the couple coordinated in navy; Ronan wore a glamorous two piece set while Lowden stuck to the classics in a navy tuxedo.
Lowden is up against Shōgun's Tadanobu Asano and Takehiro Hira, The Morning Show's Billy Crudup, Mark Duplass, and Jon Hamm, and Jonathan Pryce for The Crown.
"Being with an actor is wonderful, because we understand each other," Lowden said in an interview about being married to Ronan. "We’re quite odd people, actors. We’re strange animals. So it just makes complete sense, and I understand why there are loads of other actors with actors… And it’s really useful for running lines, rather than with, like, your mum. Is it hard to maintain privacy? I don’t know. I think I’ve been very lucky in that I’ve had quite a slow-building kind of career, and I’ve been allowed to grow up and get things wrong. I can’t imagine what it must be like, if you’re 18, 19 and you’re in a huge show and all of a sudden everybody wants to know everything about you."
Recently, the couple teamed up on the film The Outrun. They both serve as producers, and Ronan stars in the film. "I read The Outrun in lockdown and just turned to Sersh and said 'You’ve got to play this part,'" he told The Guardian. "We were both producers, as well as Sersh being in it. It was the most amazing experience – in particular, to watch her in that role. She’s utterly phenomenal. But then the madness of making an independent film is just… great fun and terrifying. It’s a miracle any of them ever get made. We would love to produce more stuff, but we’re taking a beat at the moment, because acting is getting in the way."
