Emily VanCamp and Josh Bowman are known for being a relatively low-key couple.

So, it doesn't come as too much of a surprise that the 27-year-old actress opted to open up oh-so-slightly about her relationship with her boyfriend and Revenge costar.

"Josh and I keep it all very separate," VanCamp says in the April issue of Elle Canada. "I barely talk about him in interviews, to be honest. It's just really funny in the moments when we're playing these absolutely absurd things. I call him 'wife-beater Daniel.' It's hard for my family to watch—it's also hard for them to see me in that light. But we're actors. None of that lives in any of us. Thank God!"

Speaking of family, VanCamp definitely seems interested in starting one someday.

"How excited I am to have children!" she exclaims. "It never seemed tangible, but my sister just had a baby—beautiful little Ivy—and my sister Alison is having a baby boy. Suddenly, it's like that part of my life is real."

She adds with a laugh, "I find myself dreaming about it all the time. In your late 20s, you start to realize you can't call yourself a baby anymore."

Meanwhile, Revenge makes its highly anticipated return to TV after almost a month-long hiatus on Sunday, March 9.
