Although Susie Hariet is a professional actress and singer, her husband has undoubtedly achieved bigger success in his career. Daniel Jonathan ‘Dan’ Stevens was born in Croydon, south of London, England. As both of his parents are teachers, he grew up in an educational-oriented environment. He attended the independent Kent-based school Tonbridge, where he became interested in acting, and started auditioning for various plays.

At 15 years of age he auditioned to appear in his school’s production of the classical Shakespearean tragedy “Macbeth”.

Despite his teachers’ judgement – they thought he was auditioning for a minor role – Dan was finally cast in the lead role, and starting what would become a promising career as an actor, by subsequently joining the National Youth Theatre: ‘In the oddness of the public school system, English and drama were my salvation’, he told TES Magazine. Other plays he acted in during his school years were “Henry IV, Part I” and “Murder in the Cathedral”.

After his high school matriculation, and as per his school’s drama teacher Jonathan Smith’s suggestion, Dan attended Emmanuel College, Cambridge where he majored in English Literature. During his university years, Dan Stevens joined the famous Dramatic Club Footlights and the theater club The Marlowe Society, with which, for the second time in his young career, he acted in the leading role of “Macbeth”.

In 2006, Dan made his TV debut in “The Line of Beauty”, and besides then playing the role of Lord Holmwood in BBC’s “Dracula”, Stevens also appeared in the network’s adaptation of the classic novel “Sense & Sensibility” by Jane Austen.
