Keri Russell Calls Marriage 'Antiquated' in Podcast, Explains Rhys's Emmy Silence

Keri Russell explained on the 'Dear Chelsea' podcast that she and Matthew Rhys have no plans to marry because she views the institution as outdated and unnecessary for modern financial independence. Russell, 50, noted that she has already experienced a wedding and does not need a legal name change or credit card access, citing her previous marriage to Shane Deary. The couple, together since 2013, share a son, Sam, and have kept their relationship private for over a decade.
