Patrick Dempsey shares how his wife, handles his fame.
“As far as my so-called sex-symbol status goes, I let my wife, Jill, know that I’m sexy all the time!” Patrick joked. “No, she likes it. It’s fun. It’s great for your confidence. And then you look in the mirror and go, ‘Oh, there’s the reality.’ But women fans can be very aggressive. I couldn’t handle it as well as my wife does. But it’s funny. I don’t take it too seriously.”
Patrick met his wife 10 years ago. “Jill is a stylist, and I had an appointment at her hair salon,” he told the magazine. “She didn’t believe it was actually Patrick Dempsey who she’d be working on because one of the people who made her appointments was always messing with her. She was really surprised when I showed up. And from that moment, we just started flirting.”
It was a case of delayed love-at-first-sight for the couple. Patrick knew Jill was the woman for him the moment he met her, but previous relationships postponed their love connection. “It took three years for us to go out on our first date because we were taken.”
“It’s like our date night when we work together because we can talk and don’t have our three kids around.”
