Anne Hathaway, the beloved Hollywood icon, recently shared a heartwarming detail about her bond with her husband, Adam Shulman. During an appearance on The Drew Barrymore Show, the actress offered a sweet explanation regarding her meaningful matching tattoo with the producer, revealing the profound sentiment behind the ink. Fans have long speculated about the delicate “M” visible on her left wrist, and Hathaway finally unveiled its intimate significance.
When Drew Barrymore inquired about the subtle marking, Anne happily elaborated on the shared tattoo, stating it’s a symbol of their relationship’s unique philosophy. “We have this thing, it’s actually a tattoo, and the idea is that individually we’re whole but together we’re more,” she explained. This simple yet powerful statement encapsulates their approach to partnership, emphasizing mutual respect for individuality within a strong union.

Hathaway further clarified the beautiful intention behind the matching “M” tattoos. “And so I think it’s just that thing [where] I don’t expect him to complete me and he doesn’t expect me to complete him,” she continued. This perspective resonates deeply with modern relationship ideals, where partners support and enhance each other without relying on the other for personal completeness. The “M” tattoo, therefore, serves as a constant reminder of this balanced and healthy dynamic they cherish.

The couple, who are parents to two sons, Jonathon and Jack, married in 2012 and are known for their private life. Interestingly, the internet has playfully noted Adam Shulman’s resemblance to William Shakespeare, and even more coincidentally, Shakespeare’s wife was also named Anne Hathaway. While addressing this charming conspiracy theory, Anne acknowledged, “It would be great if it was true, but even if it’s not, it’s still kinda great,” highlighting the delightful serendipity regardless of its veracity. However, it is the deeply personal and symbolic “M” tattoo that truly captures the essence of Anne Hathaway and Adam Shulman’s enduring and inspiring relationship, a testament inked in unity and individual strength.
