Charlize Theron didn't hold back in expressing her profound love for Sean Penn when she declared, "Sean Penn is the love of my life."
While both Theron and Penn typically maintain a private demeanor regarding their personal lives, they don't make significant efforts to keep their relationship under wraps.
For South African actress Charlize Theron, collaborating with Sean Penn on the film "The Last Face" presented a distinctive challenge. She opened up in an interview with Elle magazine, admitting, "For the first time, I had to let go of the fact that he is my partner and the love of my life."
This unique intrusion of work into her personal sphere caught the Oscar-winning actress, renowned for her role in "Monster," off guard. Notably, the romantic drama set in Africa was directed by Sean Penn, and it featured Theron alongside the celebrated Spanish actor, Javier Bardem.
Reflecting on their professional partnership, Theron honestly acknowledged, "There were times when I was totally unfair to him. And times when I felt like... he was being totally unfair to me." These trials, however, underscored the significance of prioritizing their relationship.
Despite their joint appearances at public events like red carpets and film premieres, Theron and Penn often maintain discretion when it comes to discussing their relationship. In March, when rumors of their engagement made headlines, Penn, who had previously been married to Madonna and Robin Wright, simply stated, "We're just living our lives."
In "The Last Face," Charlize Theron takes on the role of the director of an international NGO navigating the turbulent waters of a revolution.
