Billy Crudup, The Morning Show star, candidly spoke about his flaws and acknowledged the aspects he hates most about himself and others.

The 57-year-old marked that the flashes of hubris and this element of self-awareness are some factors that make him grounded while approaching life and art.

For the unversed, Crudup is married to actress Naomi Watts. The veteran actor gave a subtle nod to his marriage with the same-age actress.

When he was asked about his celebrity crush, he replied, “Well, I got to marry her, so it’s got to be my wife.”

Earlier, the British artist called her marriage to Crudup "the kindest and nicest thing" she has done to herself.

Crudup is a caring father who believes in education and life-long learning and has accomplished his best to be a parent wanting to leave his children with love, kindness and a future.

He is currently performing in High Noon at London’s Harold Pinter Theatre through early March.

Crudup, who was born in New York state, since 1996 has been creating a great career in both film and television. 

He has standout roles in Almost Famous, Big Fish, Mission Impossible III, and a spotlight in his filmography. 

On TV, he portrayed the role of Cory Ellison in The Morning Show, earning him two Emmy Awards.
