Sex Education actress Jemima Kirke has compared tying the knot to getting a tattoo – claiming it’s not ‘permanent’.
The twice married actress, who found fame in her iconic role as Jessa Johansson on Lena Dunham’s hit TV series Girls, also admitted she would opt for a shotgun wedding should she say ‘I do’ for a third time.
Jemima Kirke’s marriages so far
Jemima, 38, split from her second husband, Alex Cameron, 33, earlier this year. She was previously married to lawyer Michael Mosberg from 2009 until 2017.
Speaking exclusively to DailyMail.com at the 2023 Glamour Women of the Year event, she said: ‘I think a shotgun wedding is always a good idea no matter what because they’re reversible.
‘It’s not a child, you’re not having a baby, you’re having a wedding! The tradition has been bastardized already so it’s okay, it’s just a big party and it’s fun, it’s kind of like getting a tattoo but even less permanent!’
She says ‘no’ to dating apps
When asked about finding love again in the future, Jemima revealed she is ‘willing to wait’ to meet someone in real life as opposed to using dating apps like Tinder or Hinge.
‘With dating, I know that it’s really hard not to meet on apps and the world has changed, but if it can happen organically, that would be amazing wouldn’t it?’ she said, before adding: ‘I’m willing to wait it out!’
Jemima was born in London but raised in New York City and says being a Brit in the Big Apple has it’s advantages thanks to the way she speaks.
‘Well, you’ve got a one up because you’ve got the accent,’ she said.
‘It’s sexy and intriguing, men love it, people love it.’
Jemima is single
But she added: ‘In New York everyone is busy, busy, busy and completely overwhelmed and has too much going on and is on the side having a nervous breakdown.
‘They’re just like rushing past you and when they do have a chance to talk, it’s a lot and I don’t know, are they even listening?’

Jemima currently resides in Brooklyn with her two children, daughter Rafella, 13, and son Memphis, 10, whom she shares with her first husband.
In May, Jemima confirmed that she was single again in an interview with GQ in which she discussed how it can get ‘harder’ to be with someone the longer two people have been together.
