Viola Davis and Julius Tennon

Viola Davis, 57, and Julius Tennon, 69, have been happily married since 2003. The couple also shared screen time in ‘How To Get Away With Murder’, for which they had to film some steamy scenes.

Speaking to Jimmy Kimmel, Viola revealed that doing that type of scene with her significant other made her feel “safe".

She said: "He had to take my panties off at one point, and then I had to keep resetting them - you know, because you have to keep doing the scene over and over again...But I forgot to reset them once. And so, we got to the point, and he went to go pull them off. And [he went], 'V, you forgot to put your panties back on!'"
