She's fiercely protective of her love life, but Carey Mulligan has made a rare appearance with her fiancé Marcus Mumford.

The British actress was accompanied by the musician to the New York Times' Times Talk event where she was interviewed about her blossoming career.

The couple chatted happily together, dressed warmly for the cooler weather in the Big Apple.

They later travelled together to their hotel where Marcus, 24, carried his guitar inside.

Carey, 26, looked stylish in a blue jacket from The Row, a L’Agence shirt, Isabel Marant jeans, and Salvatore Ferragamo flats.





She had revealed at the event that she secretly applied to drama schools instead of universities when she was 17, not telling her parents.

She was rejected from every one with a London school telling her to be a children's TV presenter.

'It was a big mess basically, my parents are furious. So I spent my gap year working in a pub and working in a film school as a runner.

'I was like a drama geek. I never fell into acting. I was obsessed with acting from a young age. I wanted to be in musicals. I wore a Les Miserables T-shirt for four years, well into my teens.'

Also at the event was actress Kirsten Wiig, sporting darker-than-usual locks, and funnyman Seth Rogan.

Carey actress became engaged to Marcus in August after just five months of dating.

A spy told the Daily Mail in March: ‘Marcus invited Carey to watch him play a secret show in the basement of his friend Mike Harris’s home in Nashville.
'She sat in the front row and while he was singing Marcus looked down at Carey and she blushed. It was clear they had chemistry.
‘Afterwards they went to the City House restaurant and dined with friends but they sat together and acted like a couple.'
