The stunning actress reconciled with the 'In Time' star earlier this year after a brief split and now friends insist that she has the upper hand and he would even consider marriage if that's what she wanted.

"Justin thinks marriage would hurt his career, but if Jessica threatened to leave, he'd do it. She now has the power in the relationship," Contactmusic quoted a friend as telling Us magazine.

However, the actor need not worry about getting married just yet as Biel, recently revealed that she was in no hurry to settle down.

On being asked if she would like to get married and have children, the brunette beauty had said 'of course' but added that 'I don't feel pressured'.

"Sure, of course. And, yeah, I think probably at some point it would be something I'm interested in. But I don't feel pressured.

"I was never one of those girls who dreamt of my wedding and my Prince Charming. To p**s off my mom, I used to say, 'I'm never having kids, and I'm going to be a fabulously rich old maid living in a house with cute butlers and dogs,'" she added.
