Fifty Shades ' Jamie Dornan Reveals Texts With Costar Dakota Johnson
Originally appeared on E! Online
Dakota Johnson is still part of Jamie Dornan's social network.
The Fifty Shades of Grey actor shared that he still keeps in touch with his costar in the franchise—and even looks forward to spending quality time with her and fiancé Chris Martin.
"I was just texting with her a couple days ago," Jamie told Metro at the Into Film Awards July 1. "I think she's London bound a wee bit over the next few weeks so trying to see her and Chris for dinner."
And the desire to stay connected is mutual for Dakota, who previously said Jamie, 42, has become like family to her.
"There was never a time when we didn't get along," she told Vanity Fair in a June 2022 interview. "I know it's weird, but he's like a brother to me."
Gushing that she loves Jamie "so, so, so much," Dakota added, "We were really there for each other. We had to really trust each other and protect each other."
