Kieran Culkin got down on one knee "between two dumpsters" to propose to wife Jazz Charton

She told the Sunday Times newspaper: "We were about to go on a road trip to California, so we were having a going-away party with our friends before we left.

"Kieran said: 'Wait, come outside, I want to tell you something.' And he got down between two dumpsters and said: 'Will you marry me?'

"I was, like: 'Really, here? I mean, yes, obviously, but really?'"

Jazz also shared the moment they first met - revealing Kieran sat down next to her in a bar in Manhattan and asked her: "Is that your boyfriend?"

She added of the encounter: "He was very forward but hilariously so, and he said: 'There's this Indian restaurant that's really good.' I said: 'Oh cool, can you give me the name?' And he said: 'No, you idiot, I want to take you there'."

They went on to elope and tie the knot during a road trip in Iowa and Jazz - who was 26 at the time - admits she was very young to get married.

Jazz - who was born in the UK - joked to the publication: "I know, so young. It's devastating - he took my best years. I tell him he's just my green card husband."

She added of the Oscar winner: "I know Kieran comes across as this quirky guy but he's actually really sensible.

"That was one of the ways I knew he was the right person. Kieran is the most charismatic person you'll ever meet and you just want to be around him. But I also wanted to be like him in terms of how he behaves. Nothing really fazes him."
