Christina Hendricks ‘hates’ to think about 'Mad Men' ending

Christina Hendricks

The flame-haired actress - who plays Joan Holloway in the 60s-set TV show, which was recently renewed for a sixth season - claims the programme has "completely changed" her career and she doubts she will ever find a job she loves as much.

She said: "It's completely changed my career. Instead of people wondering who you are, you walk in and they say, 'I love your show'. It's a nice way to start an audition.

"I hate to think of it ever finishing. I have concerns about finding something I'm going to fall in love with as much."

However, Christina - who is married to actor Geoffrey Arend - is looking forward to other projects and spending some time with her husband.

She said: "I've got a couple of things lined up for the next break, and I hope to enjoy my home and husband."
Christina, 37, was "smitten" with Geoffrey when she first met him because of his sense of humour.

She told Britain's Glamour magazine: "It just became very obvious to me, I was smitten. He makes me laugh and he's my best friend and I would always rather be with him than not, so those are pretty good indications."

Christina Hendricks says marriage has made her more 'nurturing'

The 'Mad Men' actress - who tied the knot with '(500) Days of Summer' actor Geoffrey Arend in October  2009 - admits their relationship changed after they wed because she felt more "connected" to her spouse.

She explained: "I felt more nurturing towards him [when we married], like he's here forever and I've got to make sure he's healthy and fed and clothed and loved.

"I felt much more connected to him. There's something about having all your family in a room and announcing it and celebrating it that makes it very real."

Christina, 36, also admitted she "freaked out" Geoffrey with a passionate declaration of love soon after they started dating.

Asked how soon after they started dating she told him she loved him, the actress told the new issue of Britain's Cosmopolitan magazine: "Not long - and I cracked it out in such a big way.

"I was like, 'You make me want to have a family.' I freaked him out a bit... Thank God I didn't spook him enough to make him leave."
