Russell Crowe is no stranger to the spotlight, and now he's shedding some light on his personal life, particularly his stance on tying the knot again. The "Gladiator" star has been candid about his long-standing relationship with Britney Theriot and the swirling rumors of their engagement. Despite being romantically linked since November 2020, Crowe and Theriot are in no rush to walk down the aisle.
Crowe was previously married to Australian actress Danielle Spencer from 2003 to 2012, with their divorce finalized in 2018. They share two sons, Charles and Tennyson. Reflecting on his past, Crowe has been clear that remarrying isn't on his agenda.
In a recent interview, Russell Crowe set the record straight about his future with Theriot, shooting down the engagement rumors. He expressed, "No, I'm not going to get married again. Doing it once is cool, great, you know. But I don't want to do it again."
“My life is so joyous and happy at the moment – why ruin that with a wedding?” he argued.
Crowe shared that he and Theriot have a solid foundation as partners and don't need a ring to prove their love. This sentiment has resonated with many fans who support his decision.
Crowe's bond with Theriot began on a tennis court in 2020, but their story dates back to 2013 when they met on the set of "Broken City." Theriot, who transitioned from acting to real estate, made a name for herself in the industry, joining Mirambell Realty in 2017 and earning accolades.
The couple has enjoyed public outings together, including a red-carpet appearance at the Rome premiere of Crowe's film "Poker Face" in 2022. Their adventures also took them on a sightseeing trip with Crowe's sons in Italy.
Crowe's first marriage may have ended, but it left a lasting impression. His divorce from Spencer was finalized on April 9, 2018, and soon after, he auctioned off 200 personal items in an event whimsically titled "The Art of Divorce." The auction, which included items like an 1890 Leandro Bisiach violin, fetched $3.7 million.
Crowe also channeled his feelings into music. Before the official split, he created an album inspired by his impending divorce, with tracks like "Sadness Of A Woman" and "Too Far Gone" reflecting his emotions. Crowe even managed to involve Spencer in the album, cleverly encouraging her participation.
Will Russell Crowe ever change his mind about marriage? Only time will tell, but for now, he's content with the life he's built.
