Ruth Wilson Isn’t Too Keen On The Concept Of Marriage

Wilson is reportedly in a long-term relationship with an American writer. However, she keeps her cards close to her chest as she has not yet publicly revealed exactly who the mystery man is. In an interview with the Independent, the 40-year-old actor said: “I believe the value of having someone in your life who understands you and sees you is enormous. And I’m so glad I have it.” While Wilson is happy in her current relationship, marriage doesn’t seem to be on the cards. Instead, she’s navigating her relationship on her own terms. The actor told the publication: “I don’t believe in institutions.” She continued: “I feel slightly restricted by having to conform to someone else’s idea of what a relationship is, or where you should be at this time in your life.”
