Justin Long declares he loves wearing wedding ring – after losing his first one

Justin Long loves wearing his wedding ring – after losing his first one.

The ‘Tusk’ actor, 45, got hitched to actress Kate Bosworth, 41, in May 2023 and has now opened up about how he loves wearing his band they exchanged at the nuptials despite his initial fear he’d find it uncomfortable.

He told ‘The Talk’: “I thought it would be stifling and I wouldn’t be able to get it off. But I like it.”

The topic of his wedding rings came up after co-host Jerry O’Connell, 50, asked guest Milo Ventimiglia, 46, how he’s enjoying married life.

‘This is Us’ star Milo, who secretly married model Jarah Mariano, 39, last year in a private ceremony, said he never takes his wedding ring off because he is still so “excited” about being a husband.

After Justin admitted his hesitation about wearing a ring, Milo jokingly asked Kate on the show – as she was sitting in the audience: “You hear this?”

She replied: “I’m just letting him hang himself – like, over and over again.”

Justin went on to reveal the wedding band he’s now wearing is not his original ring, adding: “I lost it. I lost my ring. This is a second ring.”

Co-host Sheryl Underwood, 60, joked: “I’m going to let y’all know something you don’t know about women. We can feel and hear when that ring is coming off your finger.”

Justin previously told how he lost his wedding ring just months after tying the knot with Bosworth in a casual ceremony at the Rockaway Hotel in Queens, New York.

He told Kelly Ripa, 53, and Mark Consuelos, 52, on ‘Live with Kelly and Mark’ in May 2023: “I don’t have my ring on because I lost it, unfortunately,” and after the audience groaned the actor added: “Oh, okay, I didn’t have to reveal that! I could have just said I left it backstage!”

Justin also opened about married life with Kate, saying: “Right away, I knew I was going to be friends with her forever. We got along so well. I know it sounds so generic.”
