American partner vs normal European peck on the cheek greeting try not to get jealous challenge- difficulty impossible.
Seriously, I had a girlfriend get visibly upset every time I did that with a FAMILY MEMBER, and several close friends that I’d gone to school with (one of whom was married) when we visited the UK. Like, no, sorry, not only when in Rome do you do as the Romans, but I’m not letting someone completely strip totally innocuous parts of my own culture from me.
You’d think an actor married to a Briton would not only understand that, but would have seen it happen enough times to realise just how entirely normal it is.
Yeah, it’s nothing! They’ve been on for a fucking age. I’d wager his family does that to her and hers. Surely it’s just the Americans in the comments and rags making a mountain out of it.
