Keri Russell 'would die' if Matthew Rhys proposed in public

Keri Russell would say no if partner Matthew Rhys proposed on stage at the Emmy Awards.
Back in 2018, Glenn Weiss popped the question to girlfriend Jan Svendsen during the live telecast of the ceremony - with Matthew taking to the stage minutes later to accept his Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series for The Americans.
During an interview with Variety, Matthew admitted he got some “heat” for “s******* on that guy’s moment”, but long-time partner Keri insisted of the proposal: “Do it on your own time, man! For me to have to do anything public is horrifying.”
Asked what she would do if Matthew had been the one proposing to her, Keri replied: “I would die. I would say no. Good night!”
Matthew then jokingly imagined her response, mimicking: “Get off the stage! Take your little award the f*** offstage!”
Elsewhere in the interview, the pair spoke about how they choose which jobs they take - with Keri remembering her hesitation about taking on her role in The Diplomat, which was filmed in London.
She said: “I do like my life — my quiet little life. I like pitter-pattering around the house and doing my little laundry, and putting everything in its order.
“Lately, the type of jobs we take, we tend to be one of the main characters. So that’s full-on. You have to be willing to do that and only that.
“So it’s a negotiation with yourself. It was a big leap for the family to go.”
Meanwhile, Matthew opened up about how he chooses his jobs - and how the co-stars he will have play a vital part in his decision.
He said: “As you get older, you just want to work with nice — maybe ‘nice’ is not the right word,. Stable. Professional. I don’t need any new best friends. I have great friends. I have a partner.
“But I just don’t want to put up with people’s b******* anymore. Figure that s*** out. Go do that on your own time. Don’t bring it to work. I just want to work with professionals.”
