Is Zoe Sandala’s husband the perfect guy? In a word: Yes
Has Zoe Saldana found the perfect man? Definitely!
Actress Zoe has been speaking of her husband Marco’s decision to take her surname upon their marriage – rather than the other way around.
Oh, and did we mention he is really really ridiculously good-looking?
The Guardians Of The Galaxy star sits beaming on the cover of the July issue of InStyle magazine, in which she reveals how Italian artist Marco Perego took her name after the two secretly married back in the summer of 2013.
Zoe explained that she even tried to talk him out of taking her name, despite being "proud" of him.
She stated: "I tried to talk him out of it. I told him: 'If you use my name, you’re going to be emasculated by your community of artists, by your Latin community of men, by the world,'" she told InStyle.
"But Marco looks up at me and says [she puts on a cute Italian accent]: 'Ah, Zoe, I don’t give a sheet'.”
Ms Saldana recently posted a Facebook status about her husband's decision to take her name, urging men to defy gender stereotypes.
"Fathers, sons, brothers, men everywhere: Your legacy will not perish if you take your partner's surname, or she keeps hers.
"I’ve been made aware that a comment I made regarding my marriage has garnered some attention. I felt proud that my husband decided to take my last name as his own… and I his.
"Why is it so surprising, shocking, eventful that a man would take his wife's surname? Women have never been asked if its OK for them to give up their names – why doesn’t that make the news?
"Men, you will not cease to exist by taking your partner’s surname. On the contrary — you’ll be remembered as a man who stood by change. I know our sons will respect and admire their father more because their father lead by example."
The couple had twins boys back in November 2014, and Saldana has furthermore spoken about the challenges and changes that motherhood brings.
