Stanley Tucci recalled the time he almost broke up with his now-wife Felicity Blunt.

Tucci and the sister of his “The Devil Wears Prada” co-star, Emily Blunt, tied the knot in 2012, three years after his wife, Kate Tucci, died from breast cancer.

The actor, 62, told BBC Radio 4’s “Desert Island Discs” that he almost called it off with Felicity, 41, because of their 21-year age gap.

Stanley shared, “I was afraid to get into a relationship and I kept trying to break it off.

“I’m 21 years older than she is and I didn’t want to feel old for the rest of my life! But I knew that this was an incredibly special person,” he added, according to People.
