He may play Belle's one true love in Beauty and the Beast, but in real life, Dan Stevens is married to jazz singer Susie Stevens, with whom he shares three children: Willow, 7, Aubrey, 4, and Eden, who is only two months old.
And it turns out that Willow, who was only 5 at the time of filming, might deserve a costume designer credit for the blockbuster movie. In a recent appearance on the British TV program This Morning, Dan said that Emma came over to his house for dinner right around the time that the film's costumers were working on the design of Belle's iconic yellow ballgown.
Little Willow, clearly a fashionista in the making, overhearing Dan and Emma discussing the dress, so she went into another room, grabbed a pen and paper, and came back later with five different dress designs.
She sat down to talk through them with Emma, as any proper couturier would — Emma was, of course, very sweet about the whole thing, Dan added, and and picked her favorite. A few weeks later, Willow visited the movie's set for the ballroom scene, and saw the dress that they had picked out made for real."She just looked at me and went, 'Yea, that's the one,'" Dan explained.
Adorable.
