Knightley described a recent encounter with builders who held up cue cards in homage to her character's moment in Love Actually. She found it 'creepy and sweet', reflecting the mix of emotions in the film.
Richard Curtis, the film's director, acknowledged the scene's oddness, admitting in 2023 that he didn't perceive it as stalking at the time, but now accepts differing interpretations.
Martine McCutcheon, Knightley's co-star, defended the scene's intentions, suggesting that 'people do crazy things when they are in love,' framing it as an expression of genuine emotion.
