Jamie Dornan Quotes

I'll take photographs with kids. People who want to take photographs with me. People who like the movies. People who supported me. I'll do that all day, all night, that's fine.

I've been chased through airports with a screaming baby because the photographers are ruthless, and they want the picture.

What you don't see are the cameras shoved in my face and the bizarre intrusive questions being asked, or the people falling over themselves, screaming and taunting to get a reaction.

It is very difficult to be under the microscope every moment of every day. Everything that leaves your mouth becomes this sensationalized news story, no matter what your intentions were when you first said it, so it becomes overwhelming.

I don't know how people do it these days - paparazzi and that kind of thing. That's something I can't even imagine.
