Lena Dunham is best known for her famous show, Girlsbut that was not how her now-husband Luis Felber knew her when he first approached her.
The 40-year-old hyphenated star opened up about her early relationship with the musician, 39, at Fame sick book tour event with former costar Rita Wilson.
Dunham recalled, “What was so amazing about meeting him, he had never seen Girls,” shared that Felber had texted her on Instagram and asked, “Do you think, do you think you could stand to have dinner with this person?”
The Too much writer revealed that her husband had assumed she was a curvy model, and “I said, ‘That’s the nicest thing I’ve ever heard,'” she told Wilson.
Wilson jokingly added that it could be the truth, and encouraged Dunham to call famous plus-size model Ashley Graham, to which she replied, “Well, I’ll call her after this and see what she thinks I should do.”
She shed light on Felber’s early approach to Dunham, adding that he “didn’t seem to come with a lot of preconceived ideas about who I was. He was present and interested, but not overly interested.”
Dunham then went on to call her husband “really amazing.”
The couple first met in 2021 after being set up on a blind date, and soon moved in together and married that same year in September.
