English transcript

You made the very sensible decision, and apparently

he asked you to marry him nine- 19 days after

you met. Which is very English. Yes. Russell

Brand was our Cupid. Really?

Yeah, he was. Well, let's hear this, 'cause

I'm fascinated. 19- so what happened?

You guys meet where?

So, uh, a buddy of ours... This is George, your

husband. Yeah. We- Turning Point UK was hosting

an event. George was there, I didn't get to

meet him. I then went to do Russell Brand's

podcast on the countryside, and through a lot

of miscommunication, nobody had told me that

my now husband was hosting a massive dinner

with like major players in politics, like Douglas

Murray was there that night, you know, all of

these fantastic people. So I was three hours

late 'cause I was with Russell Brand doing his

Under the Skin podcast. And this is amazing

'cause this is when he was a- a communist, you

know?

This was the old Russell Brand. And then, uh,

my assistant kind of comes in and is like, "There's

a massive dinner for you." And I'm like, "I

have to go. There's a random guy named George

Farmer hosting a dinner for me." Jumped in the

car, went down, uh, to Belgravia, three hours

late, and my husband's just plying everyone

with red wine, like, "Is this woman even coming?"

And I don't know, I just locked eyes with him

and just knew that I was gonna marry him. It

was totally insane. On that night?

Literally, and it's funny 'cause his best man

then read the text messages that George was

sending to him, like, "I'm gonna marry this

girl." And I was sending messages to my assistant

like, "I'm gonna marry this guy." From that

night?

Like, locked eyes. If- this is like a true rom-com

story featuring Russell Brand, yeah. Really?

Was it just the accent, Candace?

Be clear. No, he didn't- no, everyone had an

accent. Do you find this accent irresistible?

Is that where we are?

Americans do like an English accent. I know.

So I will say that, it- it is a plus. But everyone

there had an accent. It was just his face. He

didn't even speak to me, he was so nervous.

And then he flew to meet me the following week

at Turning Point USA's big conference they have

every December. And it was just- I just knew.

It was just the strangest thing. And then he

proposed to me, we didn't even kiss, nothing,

didn't even know if he had a girlfriend. And...

You'd not even had a date really?

We didn't even have a date. We had our first

kiss in Terminal 5. Really?

Mhm. That's very romantic. It is. It's like

Love Actually. It is Love Actually.
