Robin Wright Penn Talks About Her Divorce
Robin Wright Penn and Sean Penn have been through a lot and I'm sure it's terribly hard to go through a divorce in the public eye. Robin filed for divorce in August for what just might be the final time. She shared some insight into starting her life fresh.
"New beginnings, definitely," she tells Redbook in its November issue, out Oct. 27. "For me, my career too. My kids are older now
She realizes they can't exactly keep their divorce out of the public but she doesn't feel obligated to share the details with the media.
"It never [feels good]," she says of their public split. "Yes, it's divorce; it's a given that it will be public. But … it's so disrespectful. 'You're an actress, you owe us this?' 'F--- you,' is what I say."
Asked if she'd remain friends with her ex, with whom she has two children, she answered, simply: "Yeah."
Currently Robin is keeping busy filming "The Conspirator". She's also one of the voices in the upcoming A Christmas Carol with Jim Carrey. I'm very excited about seeing that one in 3D!

Robin Wright Penn Files For Divorce
The on-again, off-again couple is apparently off-again. After two splits (with two filings of divorce papers) and their last reconciliation in May, Robin Wright Penn filed divorce paperson August 12.
Some people were saying her comments in More magazine about her marriage were made before they reconciled last May but maybe not. Here's what Robin told More:
[T]he actress told More magazine that she had no plans to
reconcile with her husband. "I hit that crossroad a while ago," she
said. "I know what I don't want."[F]riends tell More
magazine for its September issue that the couple had a "peculiar
chemistry." Penn Wright herself said, "I, we, have two amazing children
we raised together."
Their two children are nearly adults: Dylan Frances (18) is heading off to college this fall while Hopper Jack (16) will soon do the same.
Robin and Sean Penn started dating in 1989 and married in 1996, so I can see where it would be hard to make the final break. Hopefully they will be able to do what is best for themselves and their family.
