Donald Trump becoming Prez pushed Amanda Seyfried to get married

Amanda Seyfried says she felt the urge to get married after Donald Trump was elected the President of the United States.

The 32-year-old actor eloped with her partner Thomas Sadoski last year after she was convinced that the "world was going mad" when Trump was sworn-in as the POTUS.

"It was one of those things where Trump had gotten elected, the world was going mad and I was like: 'This is a dream I might never wake up from. If that's the case, let's just get married'," Seyfried told ELLE magazine.

The "Mamma Mia" star got married to Sadoski in a secret, private ceremony in March 2017.

The couple announced the arrival of their first child, a daughter, on March 24 last year.

They wanted to get married before their daughter was born.

"I feel like now I have a kid, it just goes without saying that I'm responsible... I learned after having a child: not to take things so personally, because it's such a waste of time," she adds.

Seyfried has decided to keep her little one's name a secret.
