Insiders Claim That Daniel Craig’s Career Move ‘Has Done Wonders’ for His & Rachel Weisz’s Marriage

While Daniel Craig was one of the biggest stars in the world as James Bond, living his and so many others’ dreams, insiders allege his marriage to Rachel Weisz was actually on the skids amid it all; but now, that’s all changed.

Insiders recently spilled the beans to Closer Weekly on how playing James Bond reportedly took a major toll on Craig and Weisz’s marriage.

“Everyone knows they’ve had his issues, but things have calmed down enormously. Not having the responsibility of playing James Bond has done wonders for their relationship because Daniel can finally be a whole lot more present,” the source said to the outlet. (Craig played James Bond from 2012 to 2021.)

“That role was so demanding, not just the shoot schedules… the level of commitment it took year round to stay in shape, all the training sessions and the diets,” had “made him very hard to live with,” the source added. “He really threw himself into it to such an intense degree. And then there was all the drinking he did, that wasn’t exactly conducive to a happy marriage.”

However, after his stint as James Bond ended, their relationship is reportedly stronger than ever.

“He admits that he wasn’t the most attentive husband, but that’s changed….He’s now centering his world around Rachel, and he has a whole lot more time to dote on her,” the source said. “She’s been there through thick and thin for him, and they couldn’t be happier. The icing on the cakes is that it’s looking like this movie could win an Oscar for him. He’s thrilled to be having this success and to be in a better place with Rachel, everyone’s noticed just how much happier he is now.”

For those who don’t know, Weisz and Craig were friends for a long time before working together on the 2011 film Dream House. However, on that film set, they fell in love. They started dating in Dec 2010, and then by June 2011, they were married.

They share one daughter together, Grace, born in Sept 2018; however, they’re a beautiful blended family. Weisz has a son named Henry, born in May 2006, and Craig welcomed a daughter named Ella in 1992.
