Sizzling beauty of Hollywood Jennifer Connelly has claimed that she and her husband Paul Bettany often go on camping to avoid the media.
The couple revealed that they enjoy going on vacation to countryside with their children. The couple has six-year-old Stellan, and 11-year-old Kai from Jennifer Connelly’s previous relationship. The couple exchanged vows in 2003.
Paul Bettany said, "Three weeks ago me and my missus and the kids were covered in mud for three days, because we got rained on from a great height when we were camping in the White Mountains (in New Hampshire)... It's like proper camping out in the wild with bear canisters - you have to go and put your food 800 yards away in case the bears smell it."
He added, "There's no comfort, no blow-up beds or anything - you're just in a tent and you fire up a little Primus (camping stove) to cook your food, and again you have to do that a long way from the tent in case the bear smells the food. We go as often as we can."
"It's entirely normal, the most unglamorous thing you can do. Everybody stinks, and you're cold and you're wet and yet you see things you'd never see from a car or a hotel room. You walk every day and you're away from everything. Some people in this business go, 'I can't go anywhere without the paparazzi', but if you really want to you can find a way to go and be private," he told.
