Charlie Hunnam really regrets those marriage comments he made earlier this month during an interview. “You know what? That was a stupid thing to say,” Hunnam admitted at the Los Angeles International Airport in an exclusive video for TooFab. “Sometimes the tone of an interview... you know, that interview was just like a lot of banter, and Hugh was sort of bantering in a very superficial - not disingenuous - but not really speaking his personal truth - we're all just bantering,” he explained.

“And all of a sudden we’re bantering about one thing and I get asked my opinion about marriage. I just said something that doesn’t really reflect my true thoughts at all. It’s like being with your pals, sometimes not thinking like... you’re not trying to articulate your sincere opinion about something; and then you see it in black and white.”

“I know I gotta say, that really hurt my girlfriend’s feelings and I really regretted saying that. I actually didn’t mean it at all, it was, frankly, just stupid shit I said in the heat of the moment.”

“I’m, like, so romantic, and the reality is I sort of consider myself married,” he continued. “I’ve been with my girlfriend for 14 years. I suppose what I was trying to articulate the official government sanction of it doesn’t mean anything to me but the romance of it means an enormous amount.”

“I really regret saying that. But listen, you spend 12 hours a day for three days doing interviews straight, you’re going to say stupid shit, especially a guy like me that’s not that smart,” he added.

Hunnam is dating jewelry designer and fellow actress Morgana McNelis.
