Anna Friel has revealed she has no plans to get hitched to fellow actor David Thewlis.

The former Brookside star, now appearing in drama Pushing Daisies, has been with Thewlis for eight years. Together they have a three-year-old daughter, Gracie.

Thewlis, who played Remus Lupin in the Harry Potter movies, thinks that their unmarried status adds an extra spark to the relationship.

"He thinks it's something really romantic, us never having gotten married," Friel told Page Six.

"It doesn't mean we're not committed, but we don't need to change anything because things are quite good. Plus we have a child, which is the most bonded thing you can have, anyway."
