Speculations surrounding a potential romance between the renowned actress Monica Bellucci and acclaimed director Tim Burton were ignited in February at a Paris film festival, where the couple was captured strolling hand in hand.
After months of swirling rumors, Bellucci has not only confirmed the relationship but also publicly expressed her deep affection for Burton.
