True Blood actor Stephen Moyer "enjoyed" shooting sex scenes on the show, and admits he quickly fell for Kiwi born co-star Anna Paquin.
He made the revelation on Watch What Happens: Live saying knew within days of working with Paquin, 33, that they would tie the knot.
The pairhad a string of saucy scenes on HBO series True Blood, and Moyer loved every minute.
"You are not supposed to say that you enjoy doing sex scenes, you are supposed to say ''Oh its really difficult, you know with the lighting and the cameramen and the boom operators are all watching', but I never had that. I just like doing them," he said.
When asked about his favorite on-screen love scene with Paquin, he described a shot where he "went down" on his wife, before biting her neck.
Asked if the couple ever had sex on film he simply answered: "no, but we thought about it."
The pair, who married in 2010, met for the first time during screen tests for the vampire series and immediately felt sparks fly. Both were single at the time.
"I didn't see her for three months and she had gone from having dark hair to this beautiful blonde and I had gone from being blonde to this dark vampire," he said.
"By day three or four - oh this is going to sound so syrupy - but I knew I wanted to spend the rest of my life with her. It was within seconds really and it just became a thing."
