Charlize Theron pulled the veil off her reported engagement to Sean Penn , saying she was never going to marry him.
Theron, an Oscar winner who stars in Netflix s The Old Guard, spilled the tea about her relationship with Penn, which reportedly ended in 2015, on Howard Stern s radio show Monday.
The shock jock asked her about media reports that she and Penn, a two-time Academy Award winner, were once engaged .
What? Thats not true. no. I did not almost get married to Sean, thats such bullshit, Theron said, per People . No, we dated, that was literally all we did, we dated.
She added: It was a relationship, for sure. We were definitely exclusive, but it was for barely a year. We never moved in. I was never going to marry him. It was nothing like that.
Theron gave a similar explanation to WSJ Magazine in 2016. We were in a relationship and then it didnt work anymore, she said then. And we both decided to separate. Thats it.
Asked by Stern if marriage is a possibility in her life, the Atomic Blonde star replied: I never wanted to get married. Thats never been something thats important to me.
