Love life of legendary actor Russell Crowe

Russell Crowe is celebrating his 58th birthday, and in recent years he is far from the fatal seducer that women adored. The actor, who is remembered by viewers for his role in the epic film 'Gladiator', attracts attention with his love life. Russell has been in a relationship with 26 years younger real estate agent Britney Theriot since 2020, and the couple can often be seen on the tennis court.

Crowe and Britney met on the set of 'Broken City' in 2013 but fell in love a few years later. That they are in a relationship was confirmed in November 2021 when they were filmed exchanging tenderness on the tennis court.

The public often comments that Russell’s girlfriend resembles his ex-wife, actress and singer Danielle Spencer (52) from whom he divorced in 2018 after 15 years of marriage. They got together sons Tennyson (15) and Charles (18) and divorced in 2012, but it took six years for the divorce to be official. Russell had a hard time enduring the divorce initiated by Danielle, and at one time he talked about their relationship. 'I've loved Danielle since 1989 and that will never change. I used to stare at her and ask, 'How did I fail in this?' I still can't digest that fact because my feelings for her have never changed, ' he told The Sunday Times in 2015.

He also looked at the possibility of ever-renewing their love. ‘Once I commit to something, I stick to it so you never know,’ said Crowe, who found himself in the middle of a love triangle in 2000. Namely, it was found out that Russell got involved with Meg Ryan (60) while they were making the film 'Proof of Life' and that she was cheating on her husband Dennis Quaid (67) with him.

After the news shocked the public, Quaid filed for divorce. Ryan denied that she was the only one to blame for the collapse of the nine-year marriage and pointed out that Quaid was also unfaithful. Meg and Russell didn’t last, and their film had mediocre ratings and showed that any kind of publicity isn’t always good. In recent years, it has often been rumored that Crowe bears no resemblance to the handsome guy who knocked women off their feet. He gained weight and now he has a bigger belly, so he let go of his long hair and beard, which turned gray.

By the way, the public remembers the actor's violent incident in 2005 that took place in a hotel in New York. He could not make the call with his then-wife Danielle, who was in Australia at the time. Russell got angry because of that and went to the reception and shot the employee in the face with the phone. Soon the police came, handcuffed him, and took him away.He later pleaded guilty and received a suspended sentence.
