Gemma Arterton has discussed the breakdown of her marriage for the first time.
The Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters actress recently split from her Italian husband Stefano Catelli, who she had tied the knot with in June 2010.
She said to Marie Claire: "I don't know how I feel about marriage; whether it's really necessary. If you are not religious, what does it mean? I'd always thought that - then I got married. And now I still believe in what I believed in when I was a child."
Arterton went on to say that, despite the demise of her marriage, she still believes in soulmates.
She said: "I look at certain couples and they're soulmates, you can just see it.
"I like the idea that there is a soulmate out there and that you've known each other before, like in a past life you were brother and sister or something. I've yet to meet that person."
