Christopher Haden-Guest, 74, was born on February 5, 1948 to parents Jean Pauline Hindes and Peter Haden-Guest. The actor, writer, director, and musician was born into British nobility, as the 5th Baron Haden-Guest. But he no longer carries the title due to “the House of Lords Act of 1999 which removed the right of most hereditary seats,” according to The US Sun.
He starred in the 1984 film, This Is Spinal Tap, alongside actors Rob Reiner, Michael McKean, and Fran Drescher. Some of the other movies he worked on include Best in Show, A Mighty Wind, For Your Consideration, and more. He also worked with some other Hollywood legends including Eugene Levy, Jennifer Coolidge, Catherine O’Hara, and others.

It was then that she told her pal, Debra Hill that she was “going to marry that man.” Debra had contact with Christopher’s agent and attempted to link up the two, but sadly Chris never called. Later Jamie bumped into Chris a restaurant in West Hollywood, and he called her the next day. Two months later the couple was engaged, and eventually got married in 1984. Articles Trending Now

In 2018, the beauty told Good Housekeeping the secret to her long marriage. “Don’t leave. There’s a recovery phrase that says, ‘Stay on the bus…the scenery will change.’ You think you’re having a bad week, but stay on the bus, because one of these days you’ll look out the window and it’ll be beautiful. I think it can apply to almost anything where you feel unhappy in that moment. I’m not a wild romantic. I’m a realist. I respect him. And I just don’t leave.”
Do Jamie & Chris Have Kids?
After two years of marriage, Jamie and Christopher decided to expand their family. Born in Dec. 1986, Annie Guest, 36, is the eldest daughter of the celebrity duo.
