Connelly, 32, has a 5-year-old son, Kai, from a previous relationship. She won the best-supporting actress Oscar in 2002 for her role as the wife of schizophrenic math genius John Forbes Nash, played by Russell Crowe, in A Beautiful Mind. Bettany, also 32, played Nash's mysterious classmate.

Connelly has said that she and Bettany didn't start dating until about a year after filming ended. They were married in December during a private ceremony in Scotland.

She has starred in this year's much-talked about Hulk, directed by Ang Lee. Bettany's upcoming films include Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World co-starring Crowe, and Wimbledon, co-starring Kirsten Dunst.
