Charlize Theron Has Found True Happiness With Stuart Townsend
Charlize Theron says being with longtime boyfriend Stuart Townsend has finally put her in a place where she can breathe easy.
In an interview with Marie Claire magazine, the 33-year-old actress says her life has completely changed thanks to their solid relationship.
"Since I've been with Stuart, my
vulnerability has become something I'm more comfortable with. I think
there's a part of me that is very much a survivor. I don't know if it was in
my genes, I don't know what it is. But I guess being young and starting out
in a sense of, 'I'm not going to be a wallflower, and I'm not going to be
messed with.' That was the only way I knew how to
survive at that time."But all that has changed since I've been with Stuart. I don't feel like I'm
in survival mode any more. I feel like it's OK, I can breathe, so I'm very
grateful to him."
What a WONDERFUL thing to say about someone!
And naturally... an interview with a 30+ year old in Hollywood just isn't complete without the "baby" question.
"I've always known that I wanted to be a mom. I love
children. I've always loved children. But I'm not like, 'Oh my god, I really
must have kids right now.' I've never felt this pressing urge that some
biological clock is ticking. We both want to be parents one day, but I've no
idea
when that will be."
8 years together in Hollywood is a pretty substantial time. Charlize and Stuart stay really low key - perhaps that has something to do with it.
Anyone else completely love Stuart? YUM!

they make such a wonderful couple.
It's nice to see that she changed her mind about having kids. I remember reading quotes from her saying she was dead against it. I guess meeting the right person changes things.
Didn't she say she didn't want to look like a whale? Anyway I can't see her having kids, biologically. Maybe they'd adopt.

I could see her adopting. I know she is from Africa. I wonder if the 18 mo residency rule would apply to her since she doesn't live there anymore.
Not all African countries require the 18-month residency. Anyway, I didn't know she was only 33 y.o! Not that she looks old but I always thought she was older!
She looks like Sharon Stone.

Should've rephrased the thought first. Pardon my english.
LOVE LOVE LOVE Charlize!!!!! beautiful, talented and never makes a spectacle of herself.
Arrogance is what keeps these two pretentious people together.

I cant believe they have been together for 8 years! It seems like its only been a few years. Good for them....
Who cares if they want kids?? Why do they always have to ask that question? Leave it alone already...Sometimes I can understand how the celebs get pissed & annoyed with the media. People dont even like being asked that by in-laws never mind by an interviewer of a popular magazine.
