Charlize Theron has to be on the list of the most beautiful women in Hollywood today, without a doubt. I’m always awestruck whenever I see her on the big screen. This is not just because of her appearance but also her talent.

Theron has become a staple in Hollywood circles since her breakthrough role in The Devil’s Advocate in 1997. In addition, she won an Oscar for Best Actress for her role in Monster in 2004. She has had a successful acting career, but many fans might wonder what her personal life is all about, even though her career has been successful. Theron has had several relationships over the years.

Charlize Theron Dating History

She is currently single after splitting up with Sean Penn in 2015, which ended her relationship with him. In addition to being a mother to two children, she has also adopted two kids: Jackson, a son whom she adopted in 2012, and August, a daughter whom she adopted in July 2015. Her current career is relatively short-lived, but Mad Max: Fury Road is up for the Best Picture award at this year’s Academy Awards, among other nominations, while she isn’t nominated for any acting awards.

Let us unpack her schedule to find out who she will be seen with on the red carpet. As time moves on, we will be able to tell. I have not done much research on Charlize Theron’s past relationships. Therefore, let’s look at a few men who have had the privilege of dating her.

Charlize Theron And Craig Bierko – Dated From the Year 1995 – 1997

At a party organized for actors in 1995, Charlie and Craig met through a mutual friend just as they were beginning their careers. Rumors were floating around the internet that the two were planning to marry after their non-serious relationship had grown into a relationship that lasted two years. In addition to being a womanizer, Craig had been a film industry member for eight years; however, once he met Charlize, he decided he would no longer flirt with her.

Despite the separation rumors, Craig and Charlize have not spoken about it. According to rumors, Craig is believed to have had a relationship with a different woman before they broke up in 1997 for unknown reasons. Some of Charlize’s fans thought that she and he were dating while she was in a relationship. Therefore, they condemned their relationship when he moved on to date Janeane Garofalo.

Charlize Theron and Stephan Jenkins – Dated From the Year 1998 – 2001

It was no secret that Charlize and Craig had been drifting apart steadily over the past few months, so her split from him wasn’t that difficult. Her first encounter with Stephan Jenkins was in 1998 when he performed as a member of Third Eye Blind, the band he founded. After being allowed to visit backstage because of her fame, she met the frontman. It didn’t take long for them to fall in love after just a few days.

As soon as they were made public, they were seen together attending various events. However, their fans expected the relationship to be short-lived since both had a wide range of interests and could have dated anyone they wanted. However, they proved their fans wrong by dating for three years until October 2001 and they continued to prove their fans wrong. There were rumors that Stephen and Charlize planned to start a family together. Eventually, Charlize grew tired of being with Stephan, so she broke up with him, and he didn’t take it well.

Charlize Theron and George Clooney – Dated In The Year 2000

Throughout the 1990s, George and Charlize were friends. Both of them were connected through French reality TV star Celine Balitran, whom George had been dating since 1996. However, it has been suggested by several gossip websites, as well as many of Charlize’s followers, that the two share a romantic relationship.

This is because he leaned on Charlize for comfort, so he would never be alone until he met Lisa Snowdon later in the year. He continued to have a relationship with her for the next five years. Charlize was seen multiple times with George even though she was at the time seeing Stephan, even though she was seeing Stephan at the time. However, whenever asked if they had any hard feelings, she would claim that the only thing they had in common was that they were loyal friends.

Charlize Theron and Stuart Townsend – Dated From The Year 2001 – 2010

Charlize’s most serious relationship and the one that lasted the longest also ended up being her most difficult emotional experience because it didn’t turn out as she had hoped. They met each other during filming “Tapped” in 2001 and instantly fell in love after the meeting.

The way they behaved while filming together led most of their colleagues to believe that they saw each other even though they hid it when they weren’t on set. After dating for a month, Charlize and Stuart began attending events where they would be able to see the red carpet.

Almost a year after Charlize moved to LA with Stuart, Stuart wanted to return home to Ireland. Therefore, Charlize decided to follow him there. The two of them spent a lot of time together there. Despite having been together for nearly nine years, the couple decided to break up after only two days in Mexico during a ten-day vacation in January 2010.

A woman from Costa Rica turned out to be Stuart’s love interest, and the couple married in 2015 after a few months of having their second child together. In his later years, Stuart returned to acting several times but quit working to buy a car garage in Costa Rica. He also fell in love with the country.

Charlize Theron and Keanu Reeves – Dated From The Year 2009 – 2010

In 1997, Charlize and Keanu appeared in “The Devil’s Advocate” with Al Pacino. Their chemistry on set made many fans worldwide believe they were real-life lovers when they appeared in the romantic drama “Sweet November” in 2001.

In May 2010, paparazzi snapped several pictures of the two while eating at a Beverly Hills restaurant and were followed outside the restaurant by paparazzi. As a result of what happened next, it became clear that Charlize was looking for someone with whom she could cry due to what happened with Stuart.

Charlize wrapped her arm around Keanu as they walked out of the restaurant, seemingly upset. However, they embraced and kissed each other on the sidewalk after that.

After exchanging a few words, the two realized that paparazzi were photographing them, and because of that, it caused them to feel shy and separate. Although the two seemed only interested in reducing loneliness for a brief period, the two were never spotted together again.

Charlize Theron and Jeremy Renner – Dated In The Year 2010

According to people present, Charlize and Jeremy had a romantic connection with each other, but they had romantic connections with other people when they met for “North Country”. Charlize’s new love life began after she met Keanu in 2010, months after spending time with Jeremy.

The couple hasn’t revealed whether or not they are dating. However, after seeing Charlize several times at her house, Jeremy said he liked Charlize and that she was like a friend to him. This was especially true when they walked together, played the piano, drank Scotch, and enjoyed each other’s company.

Charlize was believed to have just broken up with a boyfriend. She was not attempting to find a replacement but instead looking for someone to help relieve her loneliness while she was not working. In December of the same year, after she started filming “Mad Max 4,” she was not seen with Jeremy, who had married Sonni Pacheco one year earlier.

Charlize Theron and Ryan Reynolds – Dated In The Year 2011

As the two only slept with each other on a few occasions, we wouldn’t call it dating since their emotions were not involved. However, their mutual friends set a time for them to meet in June 2011. Still, the desires of the two were contradictory, with Ryan Reynolds merely interested in having a good time, whereas Charlize Theron was looking for a long-term relationship.

Keanu Reeves’s long-term desire for marriage and children included the idea that she might want to marry and start a family, but at the same time, she felt that she was rapidly approaching the end of her biological clock. During the summer of 2011, the two were seen together more than once during the summer of 2011, despite knowing that Ryan was trying to have fun. But it is rumored that the couple’s relationship lasted just a short period before they started filming, and they were forced to move away.

Charlize Theron and Alexander Skarsgard – Dated In The Year 2012

Swedish actor Alexander Skarsgard and Charlize Theron met while shooting different scenes for a movie in 2012, and they spent time together later that year. It was reported that Alexander was invited to meet Jackson, who is six years old, and August, who is two, after being together for over three months

A source claimed they were considering something serious. It was soon apparent that the two were no longer dating one another. Alexander responded to the rumors by stating they were more like close friends than romantically linked.

Alexander and Charlize appeared in “Flarsky” in 2018 and were spotted flirting on set. The two are believed by many to have regained their love for one another on the stage throughout the time they worked together. This was when they left the group together to wait for each other to finish shooting their scenes. After the fling between Alexander and Charlize, Alexander either hasn’t been seen with anyone or is adept at hiding that he is dating anyone.

Charlize Theron and Sean Penn – Dated From The Year 2013 – 2015

It was in 2004 that Charlize Theron and Sean Penn became the first couple to win an Oscar together – Charlize for “Monster” and Sean for “Mystic River.” Those rumors began to circulate simultaneously but were quickly shut down as there was no evidence of passion between Sean and Charlize as they were just friends.

As soon as all the excitement and commotion over the new year for the past few months had died, they announced in a press release that they had been together for the last couple of months, just after celebrating the New Year in Hawaii. Due to their long-term relationship and the fact that they have known each other for more than two decades, rumors spread about their engagement and marriage like wildfire.

Charlize Theron and Eric Stonestreet – Dated In The Year 2017

It wasn’t widely believed by most people that Charlize Theron was dating an actor named Eric Stonestreet. This actor was not only an accomplished actor but hadn’t starred in any notable films due to his, let’s say, unattractive looks. Nevertheless, Charlize felt the time had come for a committed relationship in 2017 and thought Eric would be the ideal partner. They met at a party and later attended red-carpet events together.

Later, his spokesperson confirmed to the media that the two actors had no romantic relationship and only saw each other twice. He has played chiefly gay characters in his TV series and movies due to his statements and the fact that he wasn’t interested in Charlize. Until recently, the American actor Catherine Tokarz was in a relationship with Eric, who has stated that he is straight several times.

Charlize Theron and Brad Pitt – Dating In The Year 2019

In January 2019, Brad Pitt and Charlize Theron were seen hanging out together. They appeared close enough to be considered more than just friends. Therefore, it must be true that Charlize and Brad were romantically linked, even though both denied that such rumors were true.

Their appearance together at the Screen Actor’s Guild (SAG) Awards on 20 January 2020 started spreading rumors about their relationship being back on, even though they had recently parted ways. However, neither Charlize nor Brad have been seen together since the awards.

It is believed that they couldn’t spend time together in public because COVID-19 has spread worldwide, making it difficult for them to spend time together.

Charlize Theron and Gabriel Aubry – Dated In The Year 2022

According to rumors, Halle Berry’s ex Gabriel Aubry was reportedly enjoying spending time with the Oscar-winning actress in May 2022. Aubry is the son of Halle Berry, and Gabriel Aubry is Halle Berry’s brother. The pair have previously sparked dating rumors multiple times, but this isn’t the first time. The Mad Max: Fury Road actor denied he was pictured with the star in 2017, while they were previously photographed together.

Currently, Theron is enjoying a single life while raising two daughters, as she told a magazine in an interview. We can only pray for her and her daughter’s safety and health. We can also wait until the day comes when she finds someone right for her and marries them. Please stay tuned as we share more entertainment news in the future.
