The 49-year-old actress says her husband is a “nice guy” and not a typical “tough” businessman but she worries that he will be “taken advantage of”.

She said: “He’s a nice husband and I think he’s a very different kind of tough businessman. He’s very relaxed. He’s not the kind of person that needs to show at all times that he’s the smartest or he’s the most powerful or the toughest.

“It’s dangerous for some people because they see him being so nice they might think: ‘Oh, I can take advantage of this’.”
