Little and large: Christina Ricci agrees to marry 6ft 6in fiancé almost twice her size

They may not see eye to eye, but Christina Ricci and her new man agree on at least one important thing - they are madly in love.

The actress, who is just over 5ft tall, headed out for a celebratory lunch in Los Angeles with comedian Owen Benjamin following the announcement of their engagement.



At 6ft 6in, the actor towered over his pint-size fiancée as they arrived at a restaurant in Studio City.

While there is a huge height gap it seems the pair are far more compatible when it comes to personality and they giggled and held hands during the outing.



The couple met on the set of their comedy film All's Faire In Love last year and went public with their relationship in October.

The actress, who last year was seen playing Trixie in Speed Racer, has not made a secret of her desire to settle down.



'I just want to be married, or just engaged,' she told Tatler magazine back in 2007. 'Basically, I just want a ring. And the tax break.'

Mind the gap: The pair don't exactly see eye to eye
