While we do see many couples going through various ups and downs in industry, but this is certainly not the case for this couple. Looking at Hollywood couple Kate Mara and Jamie Bell’s relationship timeline right from being acquaintances to a blissful marriage followed by a second baby on their way now, they both were surely made for each other. It seriously just sounds like straight out of a romantic film.

From starting out as only acquaintances to getting hitched and now with second baby on their way, this has been a real-life fairytale journey for the most adorable couple Kate Mara and Jamie Bell. In an old interview with Shape Magazine back in April 2018, talking about how she is really protective of their marriage with emphasis on Jamie being a part of the family and also talking about how family is everything to her, Mara said, “My sister, Rooney, lives in L.A., and we see each other as much as we possibly can. My mom is in New York, but she's always flying out to visit us. We're a very close-knit group. And now that Jamie is legally part of my family, it's such an incredible thing. I'm very protective of our marriage. All the traveling we both have to do for work can make it hard, but we have a rule that we will never go longer than two weeks without seeing each other. Even if we have to spend all day traveling to have just 24 hours together, it's worth it in order to have a strong relationship.”
