Couple in Chase Sapphire ads deserve the credit

Updated

When actor David Starzyk visited a Chinese restaurant in his hometown of Springfield, Mass. recently, a fan who recognized him from the Chase Sapphire commercials asked him where his wife was. "Over there," he said, pointing to the woman he's been married to for 19 years.

"No," the fan insisted, "your wife."

Starzyk is getting used to these odd exchanges. He and Molly Culver, the actress who plays his spouse on the popular Chase Sapphire credit card spots, project such genuine chemistry that it might fool some viewers. The banter and bedroom looks they trade as they redeem their never-to-expire points for a dress and ski and pool vacations definitely hint at off-camera sizzle. "It's really like we are husband and wife," Culver said.
