A one-sided rift between Patti Lupone and Audra McDonald isn’t the only thing electrifying Broadway ahead of the Tony Awards on Sunday. There are actual Tony nominations to celebrate, too.

The “Pulp Fiction” star praised his wife’s acting while reminiscing about their marriage of nearly 45 years – including how she helps make him better too, according to the source. Richardson hilariously interrupted his speech, pointing out, “See, he had to make it about him!” Her comment underlined a previous theme she had spoken about – “wives trying to bloom in the shadow of a big personality, highly accomplished husbands.” our source said.

After a few other speeches from a few guests and the party’s hosts, the couple’s daughter, Zoe, congratulated her mom with a ten-second speech. “Ok, we’ve been listening to 30 minutes of this,” she said before handing the mic to her mom.
