“I don't like putting that sort of pressure on it and I don't feel it necessary to get married,” she said.

Asked about dating a British man, Hudson replied: "I never thought I would notice the difference but there are a lot of differences, it's just a different way, he is polite and kind and so sweet."

The actress, who already has once child, Ryder, seven, with ex-husband Chris Robinson, added that hearing Bellamy's voice on the phone had “signed the deal for me”.

Viewers will be able to watch Hudson's appearance on The Graham Norton Show on BBC 1 tomorrow (January 28).
