Susan Sarandon has had many high-profile relationships throughout her life, but just the one marriage. She has been connected to celebrities such as music legend David Bowie, as well as Italian filmmaker Franco Amurri, with whom she has a daughter. Her most recent relationship was with screenwriter Jonathan Bricklin, who is 31 years her junior, but that ended in 2015.
In an interview with The Daily Telegraph in 2021, Sarandon explained why she keeps connecting with men so much younger than she is. “I think I can only be with people who are really looking, interested and asking questions, which is much easier to find when you’re younger because nobody knows anything, and everything is new,” she said.
Now in her 70s, Sarandon feels unsure what relationships and partners the future might hold in store for her. “I would like to have a travel companion, male, female — age doesn’t matter,” she told People in 2021, “but I would like to find someone who’s up for an adventure kind of attitude.”
She further revealed on the “Divorced Not Dead” podcast in 2021, “I think I’m pretty open to the idea of being with someone, but it certainly would take something extraordinary to share my medicine cabinet at this point. I think that those days are over.”
