Naomi Watts pursued Liev Schreiber

OHMYGOSSIP — Naomi Watts made the first move with Liev Schreiber and asked him for his “digits” after being introduced to one another by friends in May 2005.

The ‘Diana’ star has been in a relationship with the 46-year-old actor since May 2005 – when they were introduced to one another at the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute Gala – and although she wouldn’t normally initiate a romance, at the time she didn’t want to let him get away.

She told allure magazine: “It was a lot more ballsy than I would ever normally be.

“Normally I want a guy to make the first move, and he wasn’t. Then he got up to say he was leaving and I was like, ‘Oh, s**t. Probably another couple years are going to pass by.’ “

The hunk caught Naomi’s eye as he was leaving and the blonde beauty asked him for his “digits,” only to find there were instant sparks.

She explained: “I was wildly attracted to him and his work, so I said something cheeky as he was about to walk out. I said, ‘Don’t you want my digits?’ Because I couldn’t possibly say, ‘Would you like my phone number?’

“It made him laugh. He texted me five minutes later saying, ‘Would you like to go for a drink now?’ And I said, ‘No, I’ll meet you for breakfast tomorrow.’ “
