‘Pull ourselves together’ Judi Dench refused to marry long-term spouse after lockdown chat
Judi Dench, 87, has been in a relationship with conservationist David Mills since 2010, and hadn’t expected to meet anyone after her husband Michael Williams’ death in 2001. The accolade-winning actress candidly shared her thoughts on marriage in an unearthed interview.
David and Judi began dating in 2010, nine years after the death of her first husband of 30 years, Michael Williams.
Micchael died from lung cancer in 2001, with the couple having one child together called Finty Williams.

The successful actress said that sometimes on sets she struggles to see her colleagues and needs help reading her lines.
During the pandemic, the actress filmed Belfast, a black and white coming of age film set in 1960s Ireland.
Judi spoke to a newspaper representative at the film’s premiere earlier this year about her deteriorating eyesight.
“I kept going up to the wrong person, having a conversation, and they’d say: ”I’m not who you think I am”, she told the Daily Mail.
Last month, Judi and Belfast director Kenneth Brannagh received the Freedom of the Town in Stratford-Upon-Avon.
The acting pair received the award for their contributions to appearing in Shakespeare’s works, and exercised their freedom by herding sheep down Sheep Street.
Both Oscar-winners are both considered Shakespearean actors, having graced the stage and screen in countless plays and films.
This honour comes after Kenneth won his first Oscar this year, when he scooped the award for Best Original Screenplay for Belfast at the 94th Academy Awards in Hollywood.
