ACTRESS Keira Knightley says she almost ditched now-husband James Righton because he ate only cheese on toast.
The Love Actually star had to give the Klaxons singer, 42, an ultimatum.
Keira, 40, said: “He just couldn’t cook — all he ate was cheese on toast.
“I was like, ‘This is not going to work’. He wouldn’t even go out for dinner. He didn’t understand going to restaurants. He was bizarre.”
Keira said she managed to persuade him to test dishes with his eyes shut.
She added: “My oldest friend is a proper old-school bon viveur, we basically trained him.

“We took him out to restaurants and he wouldn’t try anything. He was like a child. He used to shut his eyes, and we’d be like, ‘Try it, try it!’.”
Keira, who wed James in 2013, told the Dish podcast: “He’d be like ‘OK, it’s nice, it’s nice!’.”
Knightley revealed earlier this month that she has only watched her Christmas classic film Love Actually once — and has forgotten all her lines, she says.
The Brit says she is unable to recall them when asked by fans of the hit 2003 romcom because she has a “delete button” in her head.
She was only 17 when she starred as newlywed Juliet who discovers her husband’s best pal Mark, played by Andrew Lincoln, is secretly in love with her.
The story revolves around his crush and in one scene he confesses his feelings using cue cards on her doorstep.
Ultimately, she stays with her new husband Peter, played by Chiwetel Ejiofor.
