When Did Preposulo Meet Jessica Chastain? How Did He Change Her Mind About Marriage?
“It was the beginning of my career and then I met my future husband—who knew,” Jessica said as she revealed to Kelly Ripa that she and her future husband met on the same day she was nominated for her performance in ‘The Help‘. She further clarified this to ES in 2017: “Yeah, we met at a fashion show five and a half years ago in Paris. I consider that to be a good day“. Interestingly, Jessica originally didn’t want to get married.
Interestingly, Jessica revealed to the Wall Street Journal in 2018 that she originally didn’t want to get married. “He knew that marriage wasn’t something I was interested in. And then as we got to know each other, the idea of marriage shifted for me. There are some things worth celebrating—and he’s worth celebrating,” she said.
On Gian Luca’s exclusive Italian estate, the couple exchanged wedding vows in 2017. Anne Hathaway and Emily Blunt reportedly attended their wedding. Jessica expressed her displeasure with leaked pictures from the event, saying, “Thank you for all the sweet comments about my wedding. I love you and it was a beautiful day. I am going to ask you to please stop sharing the photos. Helicopters disregarded a no-fly zone and took those pics during the ceremony. Every time I see them, I’m reminded of the insensitivity of that moment. I promise that I will share pics with you in the future, but I would prefer to share photos that celebrate love, not intrusion.”
Jessica and Preposulo welcomed their first daughter Giulietta in April 2018. Jessica shared the good news on Instagram and thanked her followers for respecting her privacy while she was given the gift of motherhood. The couple welcomed a second daughter in 2020.
