Ethan Hawke Reflects on Divorce from Uma Thurman
For the unversed, Ethan Hawke, 54, and Uma Thurman, 55, who fell in love on the sets of their film ‘Gattaca’ and got married in 1998, parted ways in 2003, amid allegations of his infidelity. The former couple, who share two children, daughter Maya, 27, and son Levon, 23, finalised their divorce in 2005.
Speaking about their split in a recent cover interview, Hawke admitted that it was ‘humiliating’.
“It’s almost humiliating, even when they’re saying positive things,” the ‘Boyhood’ actor said.
Moreover, Hawke also shared his thoughts on co-stars falling in love on set, like them, saying, “There’s a certain intimacy to the work that we do; imaginative intimacy. It’s such a high. It feels dangerous and thrilling.”
“It turns the temperature up in your life. It can be like falling in love at summer camp. It doesn’t have any connection to the dailiness of real life. That’s the danger of it,” he explained.
Notably, Hawke went on to marry Ryan Shawhughes, who briefly worked as a nanny to his and Thurman’s children, and he was rumoured to have had an affair with, in 2008. The couple shares two daughters, Clementine, 17, and Indiana, 14.
