Josh Duhamel experienced love at first sight when he met Fergie.

The 'Life As We Know It' actor - who wed the Black Eyed Peas singer in 2009 after five years of dating - had a gut feeling he would end up marrying the 'I Gotta Feeling' hitmaker as soon as they started their relationship.

Speaking to OK! magazine, he said: ''I just knew going in that she was the one woman I wanted to be with. It doesn't matter who you are or where you're from, if there's a connection between two people, then it's all possible. And I don't just mean the surface. There's a lot more than just the babe-ness.''

The 40-year-old 'Transformers' star has matured over the course of his nine-year relationship with Fergie, 37, explaining: ''You grow up and realise that it isn't about the aesthetic, it's about whether or not that person makes you better. Whether or not that person makes you happy. You're lucky if you can find it.''
