Charlie Hunnam on his failed marriage
Actor Charlie Hunnam recently revealed that he got married at the age of 18. Charlie had married actress Katharine Towne in 1999, and the pair divorced in 2002. Talking about the failed marriage, he said during CinemaCon, “The first time I was ever in Vegas, I got married, which didn’t turn out that well… I’d known the girl for three weeks and we’d fallen madly in love. It was the first I’d ever been in love and I thought, ‘I have to leave to go back to England.’ We fell in love and we came to Vegas because in our 18-year-old minds, we thought, ‘What if we never see each other again? Let’s get married, and then we’ll have to see each other again, even if it’s just to get divorced’.”
The actor added, “It was three terrible, painful, expensive years. But I got the cats at the end of it, so that was good. It was a small victory,” reports JustJared.com. Charlie has been happily married to Morgana McNelis since 2007.
