Charlize
Theron

and
even
graced

that
Sean

Charlize

After
dating
for
a
year,
in
December
2014
it
was
reported
that
the
couple
secretly
got
engaged
during
their
trip
to
Paris.
Now
this
comes
as
a
shock
as
The
Gunman
actor
recently
told
Esquire
UK
magazine
in
March
that
he
was
ready
to
get
married
to
Theron
after
his
two
failed
marriages
to
Madonna
and
Robin
Wright.
"You
say
I've
been
married
twice
before,
but
I've
been
married
under
circumstances
where
I
was
less
informed
than
I
am
today,"
Penn
said
about
his
future
with
fiancee,
Theron.
"So
I
wouldn't
even
consider
it
a
third
marriage,
I'd
consider
it
a
first
marriage
on
its
own
terms
if
I
got
married
again.
I
mean,
I
like
the
tradition.
A
friend
of
mine
wrote
a
line,
'Without
tradition,
new
things
die.' And
I
don't
want
new
things
to
die."
Apart
from
Sean
Penn,
Charlize
too
told
Esquire
mag
in
April,
"I'm
a
very,
very,
very
lucky
girl.
Very
lucky.
He's
hot."
"Charlize
was
seeing
that
it
was
just
too
intense
for
her
and
she
needed
a
breather.
She
still
loves
him
and
respects
him
to
the
fullest
but
she
just
needed
to
get
out
of
his
intense
atmosphere.
She
is
still
very
young
at
heart
and
he
plays
things
by
the
book," sources
told
Hollywoodlife
exclusively.
