Touchy feely Kate Beckinsale and husband Len Wiseman put on a show of affection on a day out shopping

By Eleanor Gower


They have been married for seven years, but it seems the spark is still very much burning brightly for Kate Beckinsale and Len Wiseman.

The couple today enjoyed a touchy feely day out shopping in the Santa Monica area of Los Angeles.

Kate, 38, and 39-year-old Len strolled along holding hands, with Len often putting his arm around his actress wife.

Kate looked chic in a one sleeved black maxi dress and flat black sandals, with her long brown hair loose around her shoulders.

Her director husband was more casual in a grey T-shirt and faded black jeans.

There was no sign today of Kate's 12-year-old daughter Lily, from her previous relationship with Welsh actor Michael Sheen.

Smiling and happy: The couple have worked together on two films which will be released next year

The couple, who met on the set of the first Underworld film back in 2003 in which Kate starred and Len directed, have recently been teaming up again.

Kate reprises her role as Selene in the fourth instalment of the Underworld franchise.

The actress also stars as Lori in a Len-directed remake of 1990s classic film Total Recall, where she plays leading man Doug Quaid's wife.

Quaid, played by Arnold Schwarzenegger in the original, will feature Colin Farrell in the role.

The movie, to be released next year, will also star Jessica Biel, Bill Nighy and Ethan Hawke.
