Theron and Penn have been public since January 2014. "[Charlize] likes guys with more substance. She finds Sean very charming and he makes her laugh," a source close to the Monster actress told People. "She definitely has him wrapped around her finger."

Although the two have been only dating for a few months, they have been friends for many years. "Sean and I have known each other for 18 years. We were just really good friends. And it's been slow going because you are aware that you could screw that up and lose it," Theron spilled in Vogue. "We had to think about it. But at the end of the day, it was somewhat effortless."
