Keri Russell revealed on the 'Dear Chelsea' podcast that she and Matthew Rhys had a frequent, secretive sexual relationship while filming 'The Americans' in 2013. She described the period as 'insane' and 'sneaky,' noting they often engaged in intimate acts while wearing character disguises. Russell also explained that she explicitly told Rhys not to thank her during his 2026 Emmy acceptance speeches to alleviate his anxiety about public speaking. The couple, who have been together for over a decade, have no plans to marry, with Russell calling the institution 'antiquated.'
