Charlize Theron sparkles on the cover of ELLE UK magazine's June issue. The "Mad Max: Fury Road" star opens up about her relationship with her boyfriend Sean Penn in an accompanying interview with the publication.
The cover features Charlize sitting cross-legged while wearing a pink over-sized jacket over a white top. Meanwhile, for subscriber cover, the 39-year-old actress sports what appears to be strapless white leather dress while posing against grey background. Both of the photographs were taken by Bjarne Jonasson.
Speaking with the magazine, Charlize confesses that she puts her relationship with her actor boyfriend above her jobs. "Putting aside that he's my partner, he's the love of my life; for the first time, I felt that my work was really bleeding into my life and that made it hard," so Charlize says.
Charlize adds, "There were moments where I was incredibly unfair to him. And moments where I felt like... he was incredibly unfair to me. But it makes you realise that no matter how complicated it gets, the priority is the relationship."
In a seven-minute video of the interview, Charlize also discusses the most inspiring woman to her, gender pay gap in Hollywood and her experience of being objectified in the film industry.
Charlize has been dating Sean for more than a year. She has adopted 3-year-old son Jackson and it was previously reported that she was ready to have a bigger family with Sean. "Yes, I always wanted to have children," so she said at that time. "I'm so open to anything in my life." The actor has two adult children Dylan and Hopper from his previous relationship with Robin Wright.
