Tim Robbins is said to have filed for divorce from his much younger wife, surprising fans who were unaware they were even married.
The Shawshank Redemption star, 62, filed legal documents at a Los Angeles court house on Wednesday to end his marriage to Gratiela Brancusi, 33, as seen by the website TMZ.
He is believed to be 33 years older than Romanian-born Gratiela, who graduated from the University of Bucharest in 2012, according to LinkedIn.
This means Gratiela is around the same age as Tim's two sons Jack Henry, 31; and Miles Guthrie, 28; from his 23-year relationship with his ex Susan Sarandon.
Tim and Gratiela had apparently been dating for three years but it's unclear when they actually got married.
The actor was first linked to Gratiela when he brought her to the premiere of his HBO show Here and Now in February 2018.
They reportedly met in 2016 through Tim's non-profit The Actors' Gang, where Gratiela is marketing coordinator and Tim is artistic director.
In November 2019, Gratiela was seen wearing a diamond ring on her wedding finger.
According to the filing, the couple don't have any kids together.
It is his first relationship since his split from Susan, who he never married, in 2009.
Susan told The Telegraph the following year: "People were coming up to me in the street and saying, 'I cried and cried when I heard.' Well, I was sadder!
"I didn't think it would ever happen, either.
"You bring people into your life at certain times. Maybe you have a relationship to have children and you realise that it's fulfilled after that point."
The Mirror has contacted Tim's rep for comment.
