The Music Man costars were longtime friends before their relationship turned romantic.
"He has an impeccable reputation of being the hardest working man, incredibly kind, and generous — and all of that is true," Sutton told Vogue in 2022. "He's now become one of my best friends, which was a surprise, because you usually go into these things thinking, 'Well, I hope we get along.'"
The duo also worked together on The Greatest Showman, even though the actress ultimately did not wind up in the movie.
"I did a couple workshops of Greatest Showman with him," she said during another 2022 interview. "So I met him then, but only for a couple days here and there."
