Sean, Charlize take romantic holiday

February 19, 2014

Charlize Theron and Sean Penn jetted off to Mexico for a romantic Valentine’s Day together.

The A-list couple – who reportedly started dating late last year and went public with their romance earlier this year – were spotted boarding a private jet without the South African beauty’s two-year-old son, Jackson.

A source told E! News that the 38-year-old actress and her 53-year-old boyfriend stayed for three nights in the oceanfront suite at a five-star resort, where they enjoyed a "romantic candlelit dinner by the beach" on Friday night.

According to the website, the Oscar-winning couple had a personal butler, but "didn’t ask for too many things and kept to themselves".

The insider added that Theron and Penn were "very low-key and spent most of their time in their room.

"They swam in their private infinity pool together and took a nap in a hammock under a palapa. (It) was a romantic trip for the two of them. They definitely seemed to want privacy, and just to be alone together."

The couple, who celebrated New Year’s Eve in Hawaii together, flew back to Los Angeles on Monday.

Sources have revealed that Penn and Theron are talking about tying the knot.

A source told Radar Online: "Sean is head over heels in love with Charlize, and her son Jackson.

"He is a totally different person around Charlize, she brings out the gentle and fun side that not many people have seen of Sean. To see this previously surly grown man, romping around Charlize’s backyard with Jackson, with a smile on his face would amaze Sean’s detractors. Charlize is getting Sean to not take himself too seriously.

"The two began talking about marriage in the last few weeks, after Sean moved into Charlize’s house. She has never wanted to get married, but seeing how Sean interacts with Jackson, she is having a change of heart.

"For the longest time, Charlize thought it was just going to be her and Jackson, and she was okay with that. For her to now be talking about getting married is a huge departure for Charlize."

The source continued: "Sean is in a very good place right now. He has been single for awhile after his divorce with Robin Wright. People didn’t realise how hard he took that divorce.

"He felt like a really big failure, he never wanted to be divorced. Charlize is truly the light in his life. He is even talking about adopting Jackson if they get married!"
