Jamie Lee Curtis shared some rare insights into the beginning of her love story with Christopher Guest.
In a recent chat with Jimmy Kimmel on his late-night talk show, the 66-year-old actress reminisced over the starting days of her relationship with her husband Guest.
“I called his agent and left my number, he never called me. We ran into each other in a restaurant, he kind of went like this [waves], I went like this [waves], he called me the next day. We went out,” she said on Jimmy Kimmel Live‘s Monday episode.
While revealing how swiftly their relationship developed, Curtis shared that she recently “found the receipt of when he went into Cartier to buy this very ring on my finger.”
“He was shooting SNL in New York and I was shooting the movie Perfect. I was on something called a payphone where you put quarters in and I remember we were speaking and I said, ‘What did you do today?'” Curtis recalled the day when Guest bought her ring.
“And then in typical boy fashion, ‘Do you like diamonds?’ Now, I’m telling the truth. So then he came out to Los Angeles and… Well, he proposed in a more private and intimate way,” she added.
The couple will celebrate their 40th wedding anniversary on December 18.
