Jamie Dornan reveals strangers think he’s BDSM loving Christian Grey when he’s around his kids – and that his wife STILL refuses to watch the Fifty Shades films
JAMIE Dornan has revealed people confuse him for the BDSM billionaire Christian Grey when he’s around his two young children.
The 35-year-old actor told Lorraine Kelly today that Fifty Shades fans will talk to him as the character while he is with Dulcie, four, and two-year-old Elva.
Asked if there is confusion, he replied: “Yep, yep I do, I get that a lot.
“Especially in the States, there will be a lot of people, and I’ll be in a shop or a coffee shop of something and someone will start talking to me as Christian Grey.
"They call me Mr Grey and have a lot of very specific Fifty Shades references they drop in in front of my kids and stuff.”
He continued: “I think for certain characters, particularly this, the lines are a bit blurred between the reality and what the fantasy is.”

Jamie and wife Amelia Warner married in 2013, and when the Fifty Shades franchise kicked off two years later, he revealed that she would not be watching the films.
Now, as the third and final instalment, Fifty Shades Freed, is about to be released, the Northern Irish hunk says that his wife, 35, has stuck by her word – although she may change her mind, in 30 or 40 years time.
He revealed: “She hasn’t [seen them] no, she’s very supportive of them all and has been from every premiere and was there for the entirety of filming all three of them.
“I guess she hasn’t worked out a reason of why she needs to see them.”
Looking into the future he said: “We have this idea of watching them when we’re much older in our seventies or eighties and having a screening.”
