James Corden has said that he will marry actress Sally Hawkins if they are both still single at 35.

The comedian revealed the pair had struck a deal to ensure that they didn’t end up growing old alone.

“I’ve always had a healthy level of female interest,” Corden told the Daily Record. “In an ideal world I’d marry Sally Hawkins.

“We’ve made a deal that if we’re both single at 35, we’ll have babies and get married.”

Corden co-hosted the BAFTA Craft Awards with the Happy-Go-Lucky star in London last week.

I wonder if Sally Hawkins will ever bring this up in an interview?
