In her 2012 acceptance speech after winning the Oscar for Best Actress for her performance in The Iron Lady, Streep paid tribute to her husband.
“First, I’m going to thank Don because when you thank your husband at the end of the speech, they play him out with music,” she said.
“I want him to know that everything I value most in our lives you’ve given me.”
