Alex Cowper-Smith is from the corporate business world. It’s obvious when you look at it. The financier works at the prestigious Goldman Sachs, one of the largest financial solutions services on the planet. Dressed in corporate armor – a black suit – he still looks as drool-worthy as any celebrity comparison you could pick.
Alex isn’t much of a celebrity and in truth, may never have been publicly recognized were it not for his relationship with a certain British actress with a growing portfolio, Alice Eve. Let’s start at the beginning.
Biography and age of the celebrity
Information available on Alex Cowper-Smith doesn’t really go into detail. It is known, however, that he was born in the UK and spent his entire childhood and young adulthood there. To be more precise, he grew up in England, where he spent all his university years. Early in his studies, Cowper-Smith spent most of his days away from home, attending boarding school. However, he was allowed to go home often on weekends to spend time with his family.
Alex went through the education system involved in the sixth form. So, after completing his primary and secondary education, he went to Westminster School to take care of the rest of his secondary education. Alex’s occasional visits to his home continued, as Westminster was a mixed boarding school located in London. Alex’s family saw attendance at Westminster as an obvious way to gain entry into one of the country’s prestigious colleges. After spending a few years in Westminster, this program paid off. He was admitted to the famed University of Nottingham in 2000. The college was a proud and cultured institution that felt like a homing beacon to some of the UK’s most iconic employers.
After graduating from the University of Commerce and Finance in 2003, Nottingham, he immediately looked for work. He didn’t have to look long, he was working for Goldman Sachs. It seemed like the new grad had a bright future in the financial industry, and he did. He started as a partner for the conglomerate. Eventually, he continued to climb the corporate ladder and by 2015, he had worked his way up to the position of corporate financier. At this point, he was working in banking where he managed some of the company’s huge accounts.
Alex Cowper-Smith’s family life: relationship with British actress Alice Eve
When Alex Cowper and beautiful actress AliceEve started dating, many wondered how she went from dating celebrities such as Rafe Spall and Rufus Sewell to a relatively unknown figure.
However, the answer to this lies in their past – they had known each other at Westminster School. Alex and Alice didn’t have the same classes, but they met often between classes. Soon, these skirmishes became intentional as Alex found himself looking forward to their next encounter. Eventually, they developed a relationship. Unfortunately, the romance lasted as long as their stay in Westminster. The two split up shortly after graduating.
Alice comes from an acting heritage, thanks to her parents, Trevor Eve and Sharon Maughan, who both starred in a plethora of British TV series. Unsurprisingly, she went on to study acting and then blossomed into the popular actress she is today. Years later, in 2014, the pair reconnected. By then, the two had more stability in their lives and decided to go for it for the second time. They soon fell back into the romance they had at Westminster. In fact, it was going so well that Alex popped the question later that same year. The couple ended 2014 on a high — they tied the knot on December 31, 2014. It was a small ceremony in London at the Brompton Oratory.
The entertainment world was on notice – a new celebrity romance had emerged. The couple continued to love life and love each other. However, their fairy tale was not to end as they slowly parted ways.
In early 2017, the pair finally ended the marriage and went their separate ways. Since the couple had no children, there was no post-marital obligation for either. However, as far as anyone knows, Alex hasn’t dated anyone since his split with the actress.
Other facts about Alex Cowper-Smith
1. Alex is a private person
The Goldman Sachs financier still remains largely an unknown figure, of whom almost nothing is known. His brief moment in the sun came during his relationship and subsequent marriage to Alice Eve. This shows that Alex is either a boring person or has deliberately chosen to keep his private life private.
2. Alex reportedly quit his job to start making things work with Alice
Alex apparently prioritized his marriage above his job. When he realized things weren’t looking up at home, he made the shocking decision to quit a lucrative career at Goldman Sachs. Unfortunately, it was too late as he couldn’t prevent his marriage from crashing.
3. Alice Eve’s schedule was the main reason for the divorce.
Alice was an ambitious actress with growing influence and portfolio. It was logical that she had less time at the launch of her career. Unfortunately, this meant Alex was starting to see his wife less each day. This ultimately resulted in them pulling out of the marriage after failing in their efforts to raise a family.
4. Alex still lives in the UK
After the marriage ended, many may have expected Alex to want to get away from it all, maybe change countries, especially since his time with Goldman Sachs ended. However, it seems that his attachment to the country of his birth runs deep. Alex continues to live and work in the UK.
Alex Cowper-Smith’s height and body
The ex-banker is really good to look at in a mean kind of way; he is neither cute nor skinny. There is no information available from any source showing his height or any other body measurements. However, judging by online pictures of Alex standing next to his estranged wife Alice Eve, he is standing about a head above her. And since various sources have put Alice’s height at 1.66m (5ft), there is no danger in saying that Alex is about 10-15cm taller than her. This puts his height between 1.75 and 1.81m, or about 5 feet 7 inches.
