That is why on this occasion, more than ideal for his birthday, we will recount how their love story arose almost two years ago and which, since then, has captivated by its peculiarity and great tenderness. Here the details.
How did Tim Burton and Monica Bellucci’s romance come about?
It is known that the American film director and the Italian actress met in 2006 during the Cannes Film Festival. In fact, at the time they met, Burton was married to Helena Bonham Carter, while Bellucci was with the Frenchman Vincent Cassel. So a relationship between them was more than unlikely.
Everything seems to indicate that the spark of love between Tim Burton and Monica Bellucci arose in 2022
However, in an unexpected twist of life, 16 years after this meeting, the spark of love arose between them. It was in 2022 that the two met again at the Lumière Film Festival in France, where Monica presented the filmmaker with the Lifetime Achievement Lumière Award.
It is said that it was there that the two met and began dating. While the two tried to keep their relationship a secret for a while, although in February 2023 photos of them holding arms in Madrid came to light. Which intensified the romance rumors. However, they made public their courtship until several months later that same year. A revelation that caused a furor and a great surprise to everyone and everyone.
The couple exudes pure love and style on every red carpet they walk on and demonstrate how solid their love is.
So, since then the couple has been seen at the main film festivals, exuding style and love on every red carpet they step on. Although it is also true that no one saw this romance coming, since their professional and romantic paths did not seem to be very compatible (or so we thought).
On the other hand, the same actress acknowledged in an interview she gave in 2023 that she is very happy with her relationship with the iconic gothic-style film director. “What can I say? I’m delighted to have met him. It’s one of those encounters that rarely happen in life,” Bellucci explained.
