The Oscar winner, who previously insisted that he won&amp;#039;t let the Academy Award change him, told the Daily Mail: &amp;quot;My wife keeps me down to earth. I have to do the washing-up and put the bins out like many other husbands!&amp;quot; The actor was speaking before having dinner with the Queen and Barack Obama in London. He explained that he is &amp;quot;generally&amp;quot; a fan of the US president. He commented: &amp;quot;I am looking forward to meeting President Obama and am generally an admirer, but not 100%.&amp;quot; Firth recently signed up for an untitled dark comedy with Emily Blunt.
