Warren Beattylikes to keep it simple onValentine’s Day.
Annette Beningappeared onTheKelly ClarksonShowthis week to promote her new filmDeath on the Nilewith director and costar Kenneth Branagh. Ahead of the annual romantic holiday, Bening shared how husband Beatty likes to celebrate Valentine’s Day. The Hollywood couple celebrates 30 years of marriage in March.
“It’s pretty no-pressure,” she said of their Valentine’s Day traditions. “… Valentine’s is pretty low-key. He will generally make me like a little Valentine with just a little red felt pen and make a little heart. He’s very economical in his message.”
Bening added, “There’s nothing to buy for him. He’s one of those men, you cannot find anything that he…. So, no, it’s usually something small; it’s a little note, it’s a flower, yeah.”
Earlier this month, Bening, 63, told PEOPLEabout her first impression of Beattywhen they met: “He was incredibly intelligent. I remember thinking ‘Wow, this guy is so smart and so sharp and funny, but more — just articulate.’ "

“He was very talkative. He was very passionate about the movie that he was about to make. He had a lot to say — and he was charming, for sure,” she recalled.
The Oscar nominee added of being an empty-nester, “Sometimes it’s hard for me to let go and just remember, ‘Oh, that’s not my job anymore.’ I’m so proud of these adult children, who aren’t children, but they’re my kids. They’re all so different and they’re all out there discovering themselves and their voices. We think we’re there to teach them, and, of course, what we realize is that that they teach us everything.”
Death on the Nileis now in theaters.
