This love story shocked Hollywood as well!
Hollywood actress Tilda Swinton is enjoying these days in Venice, where she arrived with her 17-year-younger boyfriend Sandro Kopp, and the paparazzi could not miss their arrival there. 61-year-old Tilda and 44-year-old Sandro were filmed in one of the popular restaurants during lunch.
And the very beginning of their love was, to say the least, unusual:
The couple met in 2004 on the set of “The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe”, and they soon began a relationship, although she was living with her 21-year-older unmarried husband, Scottish painter and playwright John Byrne.
According to the media, the actress told her unmarried husband that she fell in love, but he still decided to stay and live in a shared home to raise their twins, daughter Honor and son Xavier, who were 16 at the time.
A few years later, when their children grew up and followed in their mother's footsteps, John moved away from Tilda. The actress later commented that her life with her former and current lover was not at all strange. She also points out that she is still on friendly terms with Byrne, with whom she has been in a relationship since 1989, and that he regularly visits their home.
"It's all pretty boring. My children's father and I are very good friends, and I'm in a happy relationship with each other now. And we're all friends. Life doesn't have to be complicated. We have to be compassionate and not blame ourselves when things get complicated.", Tilda said on one occasion.
Tilda Swinton is an unusual person, and here are some interesting facts that confirm that. When she was supposed to give an interview to "GQ" magazine for the issue that named her Woman of the Year, Tilda forced the journalist to contact her in an extremely unusual way. Instead of sending an e-mail, she asked to be addressed… Well, by specific methods. She asked them to send it by pigeon or as a message in a bottle.
As a girl, Tilda was sent to a women's boarding school to study there. She despised the boarding school because it seemed to her that the students were only preparing for family life, that is. to prepare them to have children and become wives, not to grow into strong and independent women.
