'I just knew': Riley Keough reveals how she knew husband Ben Smith-Petersen was the one for her after second date
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Riley Keough knew it all! The actress, during her recent visit to 'The Late Show with Stephen Colbert,' talked about how she predicted her future husband on just her second date. “I don't see the future, but I know certain things are going to happen," Keough said. "Like when I met my husband, he came out of the gas station on our second date and I thought, 'I'm going to marry him and have kids with him.' "
The 33-year-old added, "I just knew. We didn't even say 'I love you' yet. When host Colbert asked Keough when she expressed her love to Petersen, she replied, "It certainly wasn't at that point. I thought, 'If I tell him now, he will leave me here in Australia at the gas station.' " Keough and her husband were so sure about their relationship that the couple didn’t waste any time and got engaged in 2014. The following year, the pair exchanged vows, reports People.
