Adam Brody recently shared heartwarming details about his first encounter with wife Leighton Meester on the latest episode of Penn Badgley’s Podcrushed. As The Hollywood Reporter notes, she was with CW producer Josh Schwartz and her Gossip Girl co-stars at Canters Deli.
“That’s when I saw her, and, yeah, I was smitten instantly,” he said on the podcast. “And I was, you know, smitten for a long time. I didn’t get to know her for many years after, even though we even worked together briefly. She’s so lovely, and she’s so sweet. She’s so nice. She’s so good.”
The Shazam! actor elaborated on the time prior to their relationship, recounting how he struggled to understand her and determine what she wanted from him. “This is to her credit, she remained elusive to me for so long and aloof,” he shared.
“I couldn’t get a total read because even though she professes to have been interested in me and all those things, not only did she not pursue that, I mean, she was perfectly willing to let that never happen,” he said before joking that she was “perfectly willing to let that message in the bottle return to sea at several points.”
Brody and Meester tied the knot in 2014 after being linked romantically in 2013. The couple shares two children: a 7-year-old daughter and a 2-year-old son. Brody also reminisced about how she had given him an excuse at the time, which he believes was just to keep him on his toes. “She says, ‘Oh, it’s because I knew if we did, it would be a thing,’ you know,” he said, “or like it’s too powerful.”
