While the actor said he was more shocked and confused that he was even given the title, he revealed his wife, 41, was over the moon to have a husband branded the sexiest man alive.

John admitted Emily was ‘very excited’ upon telling her and even joked she would wallpaper their house with his cover.

He also gushed about his wife, saying: ‘It’s that beautiful thing where when you’re married to someone, you’re constantly learning and changing and evolving. 

‘And I’m so lucky to go through all that with her.’

The actor went on to joke that his new title won’t help him at home, and will make him do ‘more household chores’: 

‘She’ll be like, “All right, that means you’re going to really earn it here at home.”‘

Emily and John have been married for 14 years and share two daughters Hazel, 10, and Violet, eight. 

In his cover story for People, John shared his surprise at earning the title: ‘That’s not how I wake up, thinking, “Is this the day that I’ll be asked to be Sexiest Man Alive?” And yet it was the day you guys did it. You guys have really raised the bar for me.’
