Inside the secret life of Sarah Snook and how her relationship with her husband Dave Lawson went from platonic to romantic

Sarah Snook has opened up about her unconventional love story with her actor husband Dave Lawson.

The Emmy Award winner, 36, told Vogue Australia that their romance did not follow a traditional path as they developed from friends to lovers over several years.

“We’ve been friends since 2014, living together, traveling together, always excited to see each other, but completely platonic,” she began.

However, things changed in 2021 when they were stuck together in Melbourne and they both realized that they had strong romantic feelings for each other.

“At the start of the pandemic last year, I was locked down in Melbourne with one of my best friends and we fell in love. We’d just never been single at the same time.’

The Adelaide-born star said once she realized their love was forever, she took the initiative and proposed to her Peter Rabbit star boyfriend, 45.

“I proposed and we got married in my backyard in 2021. It is a very beautiful grace that without the pandemic we might not have ended up together so quickly.’

‘We fell in love, I proposed, got married and had a child in a short time. It’s not a big word to say ‘soulmate,'” she revealed on The Graham Norton Show.

The lovebirds got married in an intimate ceremony at Sarah’s place in Brooklyn, New York, surrounded by her roommates.

They later welcomed their first child together, a baby girl, in May last year.

The Emmy Award winner, 36, told Vogue Australia that their romance did not follow the traditional path as they developed from friends to lovers over several years.

Snook introduced her daughter to her fans by sharing a photo of her and her baby watching the season finale of Sarah’s TV series Succession last year.

It comes after Sarah dedicated her Emmy Award win to her daughter on Monday night, after the 36-year-old Australian actress and her husband Dave Lawson welcomed their first child into the world in May last year.

She was awarded Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series for her portrayal of Shiv Roy in Succession and joked that it had been an “easy” job due to the pregnancy hormones coursing through her body during filming.

Onstage at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles, she said: “Thank you to everyone who voted and for loving the show as much as we do as the cast and crew who made it.

“We did everything we could and the bar was so high, I think that’s what pushed us to do it. We have done our best in every department.

‘The entire cast, who I love so much and who I will miss.

“To my family, my mother and my father, I love you. Thanks for having a dress-up box as a kid – here’s what you get.

“My deepest gratitude goes to someone who doesn’t understand anything I’m saying right now, but I carried her with me last season and in reality it was she who carried me.

‘It’s very easy to act out when you’re pregnant because the hormones are coming at you. It was the proximity of her life that grew in me and gave me the strength to do this.

“I love you so much and from now on it’s all for you.”

Sarah was nominated for the award alongside Sharon Horgan (Bad Sisters), Melanie Lynskey (Yellowjackets), Elisabeth Moss (The Handmaid’s Tale), Bella Ramsey (The Last of Us) and Keri Russell (The Diplomat).

The flame-haired beauty made sure all eyes were on her as she hit the red carpet earlier in the evening.
