I really married up! he joked on UK television show Loose Women.We have Dolly and Charlie. Theyre two years old. Dont sigh you people dont live with them! They are crazy.Jerry stars as a lawyer in TV show The Defenders, before which he was attending legal school. He was only there for a year as he decided to take his role in the programme, but loved every second of it. The star admits thinking studying would be easy as he thought he already had many of the attributes of a top attorney, but that turned out not to be the case.I was studying to be a trial attorney and I thought Id be good at it because Im an actor and you have to plead your case to a jury. We had this big competition and I knew I was going to win this thing Im just better than everyone. So I go up there and we had a fake dog bite case and I was talking about the dog and how vicious it is and the judge afterwards said, Mr. OConnell you did not win this round, I felt you overacted, he laughed.
