During her appearance on the Late Night with Seth Meyers on Friday, Ferrera revealed that her husband was "so embarrassed" by her emotional reaction after meeting DiCaprio.

The Ugly Betty star said, "I watched Titanic in the movie theaters seven times. [I was] 13, 14 [years old], prime time to be in love with Leonardo DiCaprio, right? OK, so first time I went to the SAG Awards."

"And I had won for Ugly Betty, I had been onstage and the whole thing, I was feeling kind of like, I belong here, this is cool," she added.
