Rupert Friend says playing second fiddle to Keira Knightley is being strong

London, March 06: For Rupert Friend, playing second fiddle to girlfriend Keira Knightley is a sign of a strong man, at least that’s what his recent comments about his character in the new Queen Victoria movie suggest.

The actor is playing Prince Albert in new movie ‘The Young Victoria’ with Kightley playing the lead.

“I think it takes a strong man to say: ‘My woman will always achieve more than I ever will, she will always have more power than I’ll ever have and she will probably be more popular than I’ll ever be and I don’t care,’” the Daily Express quoted the handsome actor as saying, while talking of his character in the film.

“That, to me, is about as close to the definition of a man as I’ve ever gotten,” he added.

Rupert and Keira have earlier worked together in ‘Pride and Prejudice’.
