Lucky to have Greg

EMMA Thompson (left) feels very lucky to have a rock solid relationship with Greg Wise.

The Saving Mr Banks actress, who has daughter Gaia, 14, and adopted son Tindyebwa Agaba, 26, with her husband of nine years, says he is “a great aesthetic pleasure” and admits she can’t imagine her life without the actor, whom she met on the set of Sense and Sensibility in 1995.

She said: “He is the only luxury I can’t imagine ever being able to give up. Because he can cook, wash up, clean, entertain children, understand maths homework, put up shelves, take them down and put them up elsewhere and repair the little holes left behind, garden with a purpose, drive sensibly but very fast on motorways and lets me get on with my life.”
