Chris Hemsworth is now a Hollywood superstar.  But the Australian actor got his start

on Aussie soap opera Home and Away, where he played Kim Hyde between 2004 and 2007.

He was paired on screen with actress Amy Mathews, 44, who played his love interest Rachel Armstrong.

The on-screen couple walked down the aisle, with Amy having the unique achievement of being Chris Hemsworth’s first ‘wife’, albeit on screen only.

‘I’m a different person – and it took me a long time to unpack that time,’ Amy told the Daily Telegraph of her years in the show’s fictional Summer Bay.

‘Nobody prepares you for fame, or media, or your perception or your branding, or anything like that.

‘And I was young and learning and making mistakes, and if I had my time over, I’d do it differently.’

She added: ‘I was just so surprised when I got Home and Away – I was like, “Are you sure about this?” I don’t feel like this is where I belong, but I’m very grateful to be here.’

Chris, 40, is married to 48-year-old Spanish actress Elsa Pataky.

The couple, who were set up by their agent in 2010, wed within just three months of meeting.

Hemsworth, known for his role as Thor in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, has also spoken about their instant connection.

‘From the first time we met, we just made sense,’ he said.

The loved-up couple welcomed their first child, a daughter named India, in May 2012.

‘Nobody prepares you for fame, or media, or your perception or your branding, or anything like that… And I was young and learning and making mistakes, and if I had my time over, I’d do it differently’ she said
