Whereabouts: Jennifer Ehle

A friend of mine who works for the Hallmark Hall of Fame production company told me that Jennifer Ehle (the definitive Elizabeth Bennett in my opinion) is starring with Amber Tamblyn in their next production: The Russell Girl. I believe Ehle is playing Tamblyn's mom in the film, which is currently in production in Toronto. She's got blonde hair, now, by the way, and get this: IMDB says she and Colin Firth had a relationship while filming P&P. This is stunning news to me (that some of you may have already known), but I'm floored. How could I never have known this?

    Actually JE is a blonde. For P&P they used a wig on her. Here's a pic from on set, actors relaxing from P&P w/ Colin. Crispin & Jennifer

  4. Didn't you read that bit in Bridget Jones' Diary where Bridget discusses the real-life romance between Jennifer Ehle and Colin Firth? Come on! :-)

  5. Perhaps I blocked it out in my own twisted fantasies that Colin Firth would shun all women but me.
